Sans Vie our first Cast Reading.

Well the script for Sans vie is in its fine tuning stages. We had our first cast reading and one of the principle cast members was a no call no show. This was embarassing and frustrating. Its a tough call because the person is perfect for the part and I know thier personal life is very busy right now. They are directing thier own movie while working a full work week. Although I'm sensitive to that I have my own shoot I'm trying to do. The no call was really not cool. My first thought was to recast the role. This would put my production into January. My other thought was to try and schedule around her shoot. This would put my production into January. I like puzzles, I dont like this one. Some people were opting for recast others for keeping her. She is perfect for the role and wanting to support her work but still see mine get done I'm up in the air. We will be having lunch later to discuss this and decide how to go forward. It may be it will work out great in January or it may be her post production will still have her tied up. Either way I will go for the understudy just to have insurance. No call no show is not good.

Other then that the reading went great. Daryll and Adam did a superb job for having never acted before. Scarlett was nice enough to read for the part of Paige and Melissa Roberts shined with little direction. I found trouble areas in the script and I have already corrected them. Having the extra 6 months will give me more time to raise funds for an even bigger and better production. Speaking of which I update our website www.mockstreetfilms.com with a donation link. I should have an audio "Feed me seymore!"
