Part Two - Plans of Man

Read Part One

Here is the text of the email that was sent out asking for extras for the film shoot I went to earlier this week.
We are looking for people to come along and help on our film, we have several scenes over two days where we need background. We are filming at the Warwick Bar (45 essex rd, N1 - Angel tube) over two days, 1st and 2nd August from 8.30am - 4pm. We desperately need people for the morning sessions as we are shooting a gay club scene on Monday and a Media Party scene on the Tuesday. We have make up and stylists who have assisted on films such as Moulin Rouge and Star Wars. It is going to look great!

If anyone can help us we would be hugely appreciative. We are a group of young professionals and we have put all our own resources into this project. We can promise a fun day, and a drink!! With out the backing of huge budget we are pulling all our resources, we are not going to wait to make this film, it could never happen.... We want this film to be the best it can be. Here is our pitch!

Human flower
films - are a group of skilled professionals who work within the film and TV industry (BBC), pulling resources to take British film in an exciting new direction. We are working with a tiny budget and need all the help we can get. We have everything in place for shooting mid July onwards.

THE FILM
‘The Plans of Man’ is a reinterpretation of the story of Adam and Eve set in the paradise of modern day London. PR guy Adam’s perfectly planned life goes to hell when his fiancé leaves him for a big job in New York City. When he meets Evie, personal assistant to Hollywood’s biggest star, Adam has to decide whether Paradise on earth lies in London, the Big Apple or his own heart. Adams best friend Dan is gay and wants to tell his mother, but due to her renaissance with a young greek student she is hardly ready to listen!


We understand that product placement is only of use to you in high profile projects, we are hoping to kick off great careers by producing and distributing good work. BBC films have agreed to see the final film with regards to distribution.

Plans of Man is a groundbreaking British film with an international cast and crew. Shooting in London and New York, Plans of Man is the first of a slew of Micro Budget feature films by Out of Vision intended for distribution through the British Film Council’s Digital Screen Network. DVD distribution is intended after a theatrical release with extensive internet marketing and an innovative seminar program in addition to conventional promotion.

Plans of Man will be shot on multi-camera HDV for digital projection – the first film of it’s kind in the UK and possibly the World. There are other innovations being introduced via this film of interest to the film-making community, such as Cold Cathode technology used in our lighting systems and an all-digital audio path to compliment the HD digital video recording.

An original sound track has been commissioned from recording artists around the world. Music from the film will be available as a separate album to accompany the movie.


We have skill, passion and enthusiasm for this wonderful project but we would appreciate your help.

We already have support from Paul Smith, Diesel, Agnes B, Top Shop and Virgin.

We have been working on developing this project for a year and the budget is £200,000.
£150,000
of that is peoples free time that we have included in the budget for when this makes profit.

We are all so proud of the dedication we have attracted.

We would like your help.

If you need any other information please don't hesitate to contact me.

A Short History of the Elephant and Castle and Its Name

Last night I attended a lecture by local historian Stephen Humphrey who discussed the general history of the Elephant & Castle, focussing more particularly on what he called its heyday (between 1850 and 1940). This is part of a week-long art project ( The Elephant Project ) hosted in an empty unit on the first floor of the infamous shopping centre, aiming to chart some of the changes currently happening to the area. When an historian starts talking about the Elephant and Castle, there is one subject he can not possibly avoid, even if he wanted to. Indeed my unsuspecting announcement on Facebook that I was attending such talk prompted a few people to ask the dreaded question: Where does the name of the area come from, for realz? Panoramic view of the Elephant and Castle around 1960/61. Those of us less badly informed than the rest have long discarded the theory that the name comes from the linguistic deformation of "Infanta de Castille", a name which would have become at

Rev. Peter Mullen's Blog

Rev. Peter Mullen is the chaplain to the London Stock Exchange and the rector of St Michael's Cornhill and St Sepulchre without Newgate in the City. Rev. Peter Mullen was also until recently a blogger. Sadly the result of his cyber labour seem to have been deleted but Google has thankfully cached some of it and I have saved a copy for posterity, just in case. The deletion of Rev. Mullen's writings might just have something to do with the fact that last week, the Evening Standard and then the Daily Mail published an article (the same article actually) about some of those very writings (even though the elements of said writings being quoted had been published in June this year, at the time of the blessing ceremony which took place between two members of the Church of England in St Bartholomew the Great - picture ). In the article, we learned what the Rev. thinks about gay people and what should be done to them: We ["Religious believers"] disapprove of homosexuality

Liam Messam and Tamati Ellison Swap Jerseys

I am having a bit of a vacuous evening looking at images of pretty rugby players. Addidas, with its latest viral campaign, Jersey Swap , seems to be squarely aiming at the gay market with a selection of five antipodean rugby players, visitor to the website can select and see take their tops off and... well... swap jersey (those interested can create posters too). My favorites of the bunch are Liam Messam and Tamati Ellison . The pictures of their pretty faces and bulging naked torsos (excuse me while I sit down for a second!) included to this post should tell you why. A job well done for Addidas. This will go round the Internet for a while, I think.
