Another Year...	[May. 9th, 2007\|09:37 am]
I cant believe it was over a year ago I made a post stating that we had started editing on Fuckface. So here I am, a year later, stating that we are almost finished editing FuckFace. Of course It didnt take a year, momentum has been seriousley down. But things have picked up again. We have inserted some awesome special effects and are really tightening the film up for our traditional soundtrack jam. Now for quick hyperbole : This film looks awesome - really frickin awesome. It's not that the Burnout techique had changed much, it's just that this film is much - hotter - than the last two.

After a long rest & panic over a missing MiniDV tape - editing of Amazing Graves has begun in earnest at a secret Edinburgh location. All the footage has been loaded and catalogued and the first assembly has been started. Stay tuned for more updates including news of the long awaited Soundtrack session. As well as music we will also be looking to recreate the groans and howls of the cast and supply some basic foley sound effects.

lyrics	[Sep. 10th, 2004\|01:42 pm]
shout out to humousexual (from germany/london) two lovely stylish boy actors/ musicians who are graciously providing songs for the soundtrack for parts of the movie. the lyrics to "Zombie-Werewolf Feudin' Blues" are: Well curse my soul my boyfriend's truly dead And his family all hate me, I'm afraid they're gonna have my hide or head I'm crying werewolf tears over my rockabilly blue suede shoes I'll make no bones about it folks, I got the zombie-werewolf feudin' blues I'm proud of who I am, I'm sorted with my furry face and hairy palms And I'm never happier when there's a full moon and my honey's in my arms But all this subterfuge and secrecy is necessary 'til they call a truce And in the meantime we'll be dreamin' of losing these zombie-werewolf feudin' blues Kazoo solo! Won't somebody explain to me the logic of this stupid ancient feud? That makes it hard for me to hang out with my sexy dandy zombie boyfriend dude It makes me want to quit the streets of Glasgow and elope to Cannes or Katmandoo Yeah, I'm driven to despair by these goddamn zombie-werewolf feudin' blues And the lyrics to "Warum Sind Die Eigentlich Alle So Anders?" are: Whooooo! Howl! Snarl! Aaaaargh! Mwuhahahahahaaaa!

It's in the can	[Aug. 3rd, 2004\|01:35 pm]
The movie shoot was a spectacular success. A massive thank to all those who risked life, limb and sunstroke to help. Words cannot explain the experience so instead here are some photos... The film is not yet done however. After editing we will need musicians to help record the soundtrack - stay tuned to find out when.
