'The Talkatives''s concert

While we are arranging the last shooting's day, some news, about the short, came out in Italy (http://indie.horror.it/2009/05/work-in-progress-la-dolce-mano-della-rosa-bianca-2/) and in Spain (http://www.casabermeja.es/noticias/ficha.asp?not=610).
I have also to add that 'The Talkatives' hold a very deep concert, yesterday night. Below, you can find some pictures of them.

Sunday without problem

After been very unlucy the last friday and saturday, we didn't have any problem on sunday, where we cleverly shot in the pub. There were all the crew and a lots of extras. We really made a great job. Now we have just to arrange one more shooting's day. Below, you can find a few pictures.

Cover set!

We have had to postpone the shootings, because it was raining. Now we have to find a new data for realizing the final day. Damn!!! I can't believe!!! Tomorrow, anyway, we'll work in a pub.

Final step!

After a relaxing week, we are ready to shoot again. In this weekend, we'll shoot in Casabermeja's cementery, in a park and in a pub. You can see and enjoy, some pictures that Francisco Rodríguez (our still photographer) made the last week.

The first step went away!

The first shootings week passed very good. Although in the first day we have had some problem (in particular, because there wasn't enough production), in the others days everything have been fine. I'm very happy for all we shot, even if I cut some shots. The crew worked very hard and the actors made a wonderful performance. Yesterday the Casabermeja's television came to shoot and make some interview to us. I have also to add that in these days, two news, about the short, came out on "Málaga Film Office" (http://www.malagafilmoffice.com/noticia.php?noticia=218) and "La Zona Morta" (http://www.lazonamorta.it/view.php?id=1060).
Ready for the second and final step!

Ready to shoot!

Tomorrow, 15 of may, will begin the shootings of my new short. I'm very optimist, because I know that we can make a very good job. It's show time!!!!
