No Worries

The theater is paid for and secured. Nothing to worry about now but logistics. I had the President of the AFA send out an email the other day for volunteers to help with the screening. I haven't gotten a single response yet. I may just have to pull favors. I hope not though. Hopefully someone will volunteer. 

Molly and I spent the day driving around to businesses looking for donations to help with our silent auction to help raise more money for the film. A lot of rejections, but some promising leads mixed in.

I've started inviting everyone I've ever met to the screening. We better pack the house.

The updating every week day at noon thing has been going well. Facebook is giving me details on visits, interactions, video plays, picture views, etc. Some interesting numbers. Things are really erratic, but that's OK. 

Johnny did a new poster and we released it on Friday. Next one should be out this Thursday. Look for it.

I used my newfound web coding skills to format most of the social networking site pages for Madison Hall to match the official site. I think i did a pretty good job myself, thank you very much.

That's about it.

Javalicious

I've been trying this new method of posting. I'm not sure I like it. I've been emailing blogger from my gmail. But the format is all funny. Maybe if I turn off rich formatting? I don't know. Well, we'll see.

I started watching those training videos. Neat stuff. I've already applied what I've learned to the parking page. Check it out. Every time you refresh the picture that's uploaded is random. :) Neat. www.madisonhallmovie.com 

I've been trying to get in touch with the theater to confirm and pay for the reservation, but the lady I was working with no longer works there. I hope this doesn't become a problem. I watched her put us in the theater's calendar, so I'm not really worried about it. But we'll see. When I tried to call to talk to her the manager on duty just told me to call the owner. I did. No response. I'll try again tomorrow.

I've been spending the last few days calling everyone who ever worked on the film to invite them to the screening. It's nice to get in contact with old friends.




Less is More

This was supposesd to be posted tuesday night. there was some sort of
error. sorry to the readers.
________________________________________________

Not much has happend in 24 hours since I last posted. But, you
know, more posts is better than not more right?

For the website I'm still leaning heavily towards doing it myself,
with the help of Ryan for hosting. So yeah.

I've started calling the cast and crew about the screening. It got to
be 8 p.m. and I figured it was too late so i'll stop. Pick it back up

tomorrow where I left off.

Been doing some more research on prices. Found some good stuff and found

some not so good stuff. We may have hats made. Neat huh? :)

I watched the first 3 tapes from shooting. It was rough. Especially
because so much from day two was so bad and unusable. It felt like

looking at old nude pictures of myself. Awkward.

That's it. I'm trying to post every two days now so the posts should
be way shorter.

Self Help

So I'm leaning towards saying screw it to trying to find a web
developer. I've spoken with a few people and the more i think about it
the more i think that no one can offer me something for what i'm
willing to pay that I couldn't do myself. A friend is getting me some
training videos on different programing languages and web theory
stuff. It'll be good either way because that means I can change things
or fix things if there's a problem later, and whoever designed the
site is gone. But, it's also making me think, why don't i just design
it myself? i don't know. I haven't made a decision, but i'm seriously
leaning towards doing it myself. Maybe I'm thinking to big for what i
want. maybe simpler is better. i don't know. The only thing i do know
for sure is that I don't wan to waste any money on something that I
could just do myself.

We released the second teaser poster today. It looks great. Keep it
coming Johnny!

We announced the test screening on facebook on Saturday. It's going to
be at Chandler Cinema's at 7pm on Saturday June 6th. After party to
follow at Iguana Max. I'm going to start calling cast and crew
tomorrow.
