The Pen Snatcher is probably the final project i'm most enthusiastic about. the concept is just so bizzare and the script brilliant. It sounds like its going to be great fun playing with the atmosphere of things, and generating some wonderful imagery and tension. Its basically a wannebe Stephen King story. A guy who has a habit of stealing pens now has them come back to haunt him in a really surreal world. Scott is a little nervous as a first time director, but Myself, Craig and Chris have been offering him advice all the way through it so far whenever we've discussed plans.
Locations are all simple enough, we're shooting up in Castle Eden Dene for the forest scenes. and the rest is in local locations in hartlepool.
Where we've struggled is finding our lead actor. Scott had his friend Gary in mind, we met him and did a short photoshoot with him and discussed plans, but personally, i don't think he's that great. He said himself not to expect Robert De Nero, but he also said he has trouble remembering lines and he never seemed to follow directions.
Here are the photos from said Photoshoot and from our first Recce at Castle Eden Dene:
