Script Updates and Possibilities

The first edition of the screenplay can be viewed here:

The screenplay is pretty much finished besides minor grammatical errors and production notes. It occurred to me that the film doesn't have much of a back story at all. If we get a good amount of money from our Kickstarter campaign then I think I'm going to be expanding the script a bit to show a little of Daniel's background and show more of why the music effects him in the way it does. It would give more insight into why he commits the murders and why he's clinically insane. I feel it would make the story stronger, but probably add another 10-15 minutes into the film.

Kickstarter.com Page Launched

We were looking for ways to fund the film and stumbled upon Kickstarter. It's a crowdfunding site that allows us to easily lead potential backers to the project and give them a quick overview of what we're all about.

Getting The Ball Rolling

We've finally established the locations. We're still waiting on permission from one of the locations, but it doesn't seem like it should be a problem.

The next step now is recording the voice over. We just scheduled time in a sound booth to do this on Monday, and after the voice over is recorded we can start shooting.

Also we've made arrangements to have the classical music all be made from scratch as original scores. So, the movie will have it's own soundtrack, hopefully we can get some of our friends in bands to help with some more contemporary music as well.

Things are getting pretty exciting. I'm looking into different ways to fund the project now, there are a couple of sites like Kickstarter that might be a big help once we start.

Step 2: Looking For Locations

All the casting is completed. If you still want to help out with any aspect of the film you can email me at craiginzana@stu.aii.edu

Now that all the casting is done, the next step if finding the locations. I've been struggling to find a day that I'm not working or have class, but it'll happen within the week hopefully. I need to look into the lighting in areas that I won't need permits to shoot, mostly places where there is little to no walking traffic and gives the feel each scene/shot needs.

Also, the Voice Over recording should be happening soon. We're still trying to decide exactly how to do the voice over, but it needs done before shooting begins.

Last but definitely not least is the wardrobe. On a $50 budget and some smart shopping at goodwill we should get everything we need sometime within the next week.

Updates will be coming on shooting days, locations, and eventually release information.

Casting for "Uncontrolled"

Just started casting for the short. The script ends up running about 15 minutes long. Which means it will probably run about 20-25 minutes with everything completed.

The main role of Daniel has already been cast. There are the following supporting roles that need to be filled:

• Ann - About 18-20 years old. She is in one scene and has two lines. 
• Guard - Never seen, only heard. Must have a deep voice. He is in two scenes and has four short lines.
• Girlfriend - About 18-20 years old. She is in one scene and has six lines.
• Boyfriend - About 18-24 years old. He is in one scene and has one short line.
• Homeless Man - Any age above 18. Must have facial hair. He is in one scene and says one word.
• Person 1 - Any age above 18. He/She is in one scene and has one line.

All of the roles that still need to be filled are pretty small. All except Person 1 and Guard are killed off in the scene they appear.

If you have any questions or are interested in acting for the short, contact Craig Inzana. Either on facebook or craiginzana@stu.aii.edu . Actors should be from the Pittsburgh, PA area.
