Here comes That Four Letter Word!

February 24, 2005 · by sudhishkamath

People,

Finally, we decided to go ahead and make our movie no matter what.

We don’t have any money whatsoever. But we gonna do it. All by borrowing and taking favours.

We need locations to shoot, so if any of you reading this have some awesome place you could let us shoot in Madras, please let me know. We need houses, rooms, eat outs, streets, beach stretches, shops, stalls, malls … any where you can expect to find young people.

By shoot, we are just talking about a bunch of ten people hanging around the location with a small tiny camera and a tripod. Not with the extravagant film shooting paraphernalia. Ours is just a digital production.

We need volunteers to work as production assistants. But on a full time basis for 22 days. between mid March to early April. For free. We won’t even be giving you food.

We need extras to add to the ambience of the film every single day…

And for the climax scene, we need 20 -30 people with cars and bikes to hold up traffic on top of a flyover. We are gonna be shooting it early morning at the break of dawn and pass it off as night. Please let me know if you can join the chaos.

The action is about to begin. All we are waiting for is YOU!

    Now, glad to hear that you’ve decided to go ahead with it…

    Here’s wishing you all the very best…. keep posting updates/calls for help on your blog, so we’d know what it is that you’d want us to do…

    Hey Sudhish, I’m game. I’m willing to support in whatever way I can.

    From your post… here’s where I can chip in.

    1. If you are looking for a small house, then yeah, mine fits in. You can use it for a shoot.

    2. I’d love to help out in production but unfortunately can’t do it full time. Gotto earn my bread. Late evenings ok?

    4. I have a car, bike and a BICYCLE to help stop traffic on that flyover.

    3. If nothing else, yeah, I can be that extra who doesn’t not get paid.

    If there’s anything else you need, just shout.

    Wishing ya’ the best.

    Extras – KO! I’m game, but late evenings.

    Production Guys – Same rule applies.

    Stay back overnight and help with the script – too, if you want guy to do that

    Hey, Suderman this is better stuff than what Sudish posts in The Hindu. (just giving your better half a complex.
    Actually, this is about a possible location for That Four Letter Word! It’s a 10 care farm on the OMR, behind Infosys. Called Match Point Tennis Academy. Did a Tsunami Relief Concert with Buddha Blown on 31st Dec 2004. Great place and I guess a good place for Different Strokes..
    Gimme a buzz on 94443 88674 and I’ll put you onto Edwin, who runs the show there.
    Cheers – Murali
