We’ve had a lengthy 3 day shoot last weekend that left most of us drained of all energy by Sunday evening but the good news is that we’re well on our way to completing the film thanks to the fantastic work put in by the crew. I’m aiming to have the principle photography finished by the beginning of October and complete Post Production by the end of October or early November.
Now for some screens:

Decided to create a Facebook page for the film where I’ll be posting news and media specific to the film there as well as here.

I should have updated the site sooner but better late than never as they say. Memoirs of a Cat Burglar is well into production at the moment. This would mark Milton’s fifth outing in a Gifted Babies production ( including two abandoned projects ) and his first outing where he doesn’t kill someone. We had begun shooting since the end of July and are hoping the get the principle photography completed before the end of September, so far the shoots have been a great experience. Memoirs of a Cat Burglar tells the story of one man, Klaus Sharpe ( played by Fabian Sweeney ), who documents his struggles with life as he occasionally turns into a feline kleptomaniac whenever the opportunity to steal something presents itself.
Depending on the final product and the reception it receives, there may be more parts/sequels being made based on this character. I will post more updates on our progress as the production continues.

I decided to sit down with Cethan last night to start the ignition for the next film starring that furry little wonder, Milton. With two laptops on the table, plate full of waffles, several cups of tea and an opened bottle of Sherry we loaded up a shared Google document to shape our next film.
The film is currently being rewritten from scratch, we’re using the treatment that I had written two months prior as a story guideline, thankfully it’s preventing us from writing ourselves into any corners. Cethan is doing a fantastic job with the dialogue, not much was kept from the treatment but then again dialogue is not one of my strongest suits. There are a lot more subtle nuances thrown into film as well and minor characters now seem more interesting.
So far the collaborative process of writing a script through Google docs has worked fantastically well, as a result being able to write and edit the same document at the same time we managed to produce 4 scenes in the space of two hours. At this pace we hope to get the first draft done by the end of the week if not by Monday.
Other news, Flipping Channels has won the 3rd Mutant Shorts film competition, a big thanks to everyone involved in the film to make it possible. I noticed that the version that was screened at the event had some audio and video compression issues, these should be fixed by the time the film is uploaded to the site within the next two weeks.
Powered by waffles and a bottle of Sherry, Cethan immediately gets working on the new script

Finally handed in our submission to Mutant Shorts’ 3rd short film competition a few hours ago, since it has been quite an intensive two weeks I’ve had little time to post updates on the other production days. To summarise in a short statement, they went great. The film will be screened next week on Thursday 17th June at the Savoy for anyone interested in going to see it. I will be starting work on the film’s second edition soon, with numerous fixes and enhancements put into to this version that I couldn’t put into the Mutant Shorts one due to time constraints. I will hopefully have it posted on the website before the end of June in its glorious High-Def form.
