New Logo Designer!

Good news! We've found a new logo designer, Danielle Anderson. Mikayla Cook has supposedly drawn the logo, but has had complications getting the picture from her divorced dad, plus someone may have thrown the third drawing she'd done away. So with Mikayla & another girl I tried to get to do the logo are out of the running, I think I've found someone that will work with me (hopefully).

Danielle has suggested some interesting ideas I hadn't thought of before, like a mini logo. We've all know certain companies just by the little logo they have. Any of the following I'm sure you could name off even with the name unattached to it. If you don't know who each of the logos belong to, just look at the bottom of this post in the tags/labels.

Anyways, I've thought up a mini logo to put on business cards, pens, decals, etc. We'll just have to see if Danielle can match my vision. In addition to the mini logo, she is going to copy down a version of the production logo I have made up already. I plan on paying her well, as well as a beginning filmmaker & college student can for quality work that is. I'm looking forward to what she can do, and honestly I have no idea what she can do but we'll find out soon enough!

Deadline = Goal

After meeting with Richard again at the beginning of this month, we decided to set some deadlines for the 1940’s Project. We’re planning on releasing the film in October, around the time that there is a Marathon and the Huntsman Senior Games here in STG. I should have the script done by the end of the month, then we’ll get casting done by the end of March/beginning of April, and begin filming sometime in May. One reason for such a tight schedule is that Richard is getting married in September sometime along with having his honeymoon, so he’ll be out of the picture for about half a month or more.

A person of interest that will be hopefully helping us with the music for the 1940's Project is my cousin Ben Stratford. He's an excellent music composer who's composed & directed some great pieces already, and should be graduating with a degree at DSC in music. Though to get him to work with us I’ll need to crank out the words and learn fast how to write a script the correct way, but that’s one reason I’m taking a screenwriting class at DSC this month. My professor is Brian Strasmann, who worked on the script for Free Willy. He's a great guy that seems to know his way around the film field.

Now I may have to think more about it all, but we're packing all the plans for this film in a short amount of time. I just hope we can get it all done in the time allotted.
