Something I did this afternoon

I had a flash of inspiration yesterday afternoon, so I filmed it today.

Wednesday, 14 November 2007

I've completed about half of the film now. My bro is moving house this week, so that means a whole new place to do some filming! I shall leave you with some behind the scenes footage: -

A deadly encounter!


That's me in the Death costume.

I've had to remake the facehugger poo because the original had gone manky and stank.

This one looks better anyway.

Been filming in my back garden the past 2 weekends...

Got most of the end part filmed. I would have got it all done, but it started raining!

The result...


Some out takes...

I've made the first goatse poo. Needs a bit of cleaning up though.

Tuesday, 14 August 2007

Well I've managed to cast the goatse poo, but it didn't go to plan. Part of the side wall that was dividing it fell off during casting the front, so I had to do a quick repair job on it. Then when I was trying to part the two halfs of the mold, the front started to crack so I had to do a quick repair job on that! Then part of the bck of the cast broke off, so I had to glue it back on and get some filler to patch up the inside. I think I've saved it.

I'm the Frank Spencer of the film world.

BEHOLD THE MIGHT OF....

GOATSE POO!!!





This is just a work in progress of the sculpture. It's coming along quite well. I'm hoping to get it finished and cast by next week.

Also, I ordered some stuff from Screenface.com and it came within a week, so they seem very reliable.

It's surprising what you can do with a belt sander!

To give the illusion of some poo flying through the air, I painted green streaks on the belt of a belt sander to use as a moving background.


And the result...

So yesterday I was at my brothers filming the part of the film where the poo pops out of the toilet. It took ages to clean the blood off it afterwards!


And the finished footage looks like this...

This will go before the pre-credit sequence.

Footage I filmed today.

Damn weather!

Seeing as it's been raining almost non-stop for the past 3 weeks in good ol' England, I've hardly been able to film anything! I've got a few minutes of footage for the poo attack in the garden.

I've also Come up with my own recipe for blood. The recipes in the net look nothing like real blood!

Friday, 22 June 2007

I have made my first poo!

I'm going to do some more filming tomorrow, that's if it doesn't bloody well rain!

Finally got some latex!

I ordered some stuff from Ajan's show-biz centre weeks ago and after hearing nothing from them after e-mailing them, I thought sod it and found somewhere else. The site I ordered some latex and paints from was homecrafts direct and it arrived within a week, well packaged via courier. Now I can finally make some poo!

The result of the hill climb...

It's just a brief establishing shot, but it does the job.

Thursday, 14 June 2007

I'm currently working on the facehugger poo.

It's not nearly finished yet though.

I climbed up a hill yesterday...

To get an establishing shot for the film. I'm hoping this will give the film a sense of scale and make it seem bigger than it really is.

At the top is just a small wooden bench

The view is breathtaking, you can see the whole town from up there.
These pictures don't really do the view justice.

I taped my camcorder to an old skate I found in the attic, which the odd sound you can hear. This is a short POV short which I'm going to overdub with the sound of a whoopee cushion.

Thanks to youtube, it looks blocky as hell.

I've done the pre-credit sequence to the film...

I've finally figured how to make in widescreen on a standard TV and not look stretched anymore.

I should have started this blog ages ago!

I've made a fake torso for the chestburster scene...

There's a hole in the middle. (which you can't see because the torso is really crude and not worth showing properly!)

Cast a mold of some killer poo...





Made the killer cow pats and cast them...


A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away...

A few years ago I was messing about on the computer, making up funny pictures. I did the picture on the header and last year the idea to make a film based on that image came into my head. So at the beginning of this year I started thinking about what I was capable of doing, what resources I had available to me and what locations where around me. I wrote the script based on this...


I went scouting the local area for locations in the beginning of spring...






I started making and bought some props...



I've never made a film before and I haven't got a clue what I'm doing, but I just thought what the hell. It's something I want to do, so I just gonna do it!
