'Cops and Monsters' Filming

Up at silly o'clock on a Sunday morning can only mean one thing - my youngest son Fraser is filming again.

So, after a fourteen hour stint the initial minisode of 'Cops and Monsters' has been filmed - and the footage is now being scrutinised and edited before effects and music are added.

Then we will see if we get the go ahead to film another six episodes.

Meanwhile here are a few images taken on the day and I hope you enjoy my efforts.

"One Year Later" - Day Two Filming

Come another day, and we find ourselves around Glasgow for the second, and final day of filming.

Another early start with a hiccup as we try to get aboard the Glenlee for the first scenes of the day - soon resolved however.

Then across the city for some external and internal shots at St Andrews Square.

Finally, over to the south-side where we complete filming in a restaurant.

Wrapped about 20:30 - fond farewells and now it's over to the editing side for the film to be completed.

"One Year Later" - Day One Filming

Today was the first day of filming the short film "One Year Later".

We used numerous locations throughout Glasgow.

Cast and crew worked well - and the usual blend of professionalism and good humoured banter kept us going throughout the day.

And now we look forward to another hectic schedule tomorrow.

'One Year Later' - Short Film Auditions

We ran auditions for the forthcoming short film 'One Year Later' today.

The session ran for five hours with seventeen actors scheduled to read for the part of 'younger brother'.

As always, interesting to see the various styles and interpretations - and my job was to document the day's activities in between sessions.

The actors will hear later this week who was successful, but it will be a tough choice with so many excellent performances.

 We are shooting the film over a weekend in April, but there is much work to be done in preparation.

 The members of the team available today all bonded well with good fun and banter throughout.

 So it's looking like we will have a good cast and crew - a major boost for the project.

'Night is Day' - Movie Presentation at CCA in Glasgow

Comic Camp was staged in the CCA (Centre for Contemporary Arts) at Glasgow today.

 A two-part event exploring comics, animation, gaming, and film.

The morning session focused on emerging innovation, giving the floor to those working within these fields to present current projects or exciting new aspects of their work. This is where 'Night is Day' was promoted and a Q & A session for the audience was held.

A good attendance by the producers and crew gave the presenters (Fraser and Gavin) some moral support - though this was hardly needed as they gave excellent responses.

"Night is Day" at Collectormania - Day Two

Well Day Two - 'Night is Day' at Collectormania was as good if not better then Day One - though for different reasons.

Cast, Crew, and Fans (old and new) were awesome as ever, making the day go quickly, and it was so rewarding.

Again we had some celebrity visitors who came to see us and had good things to say about the trailer.
