Thinking about the music for A NIGHT FOR DYING TIGERS, and polishing the scenes. A “beta” version of the trailer is almost ready. Hopefully it’s that kind of trailer that makes you want to see the film but leaves you wondering what it’s about. That’s the goal.

LAUREN LEE SMITH is “KAREN” in A NIGHT FOR DYING TIGERS
TIGERS UPDATE
Working on finishing up the first cut, finding music, dialogue editing, and working on a first edition trailer for the film.
OTHER STUFF

THE EDIT
I can see the finish line of the first cut (picture). Whew. Then I’ll have to go through and do it all again so the sound fits (doesn’t distract from the edit). Perhaps a dialogue editor…yes…that would be something! Barring that, I’ll have to slide in ambient sound, cross fade, etc…to get it into [...]

DAY ELEVEN in the books. We had a really great night filming Melanie’s big speech and two fun sequences. This is an incredibly talented group of actors (Kathleen is missing from my polaroid). Halfway through filming, and the film is starting to take shape in my mind. I’m editing mentally as we go. I was [...]

JACOB JACOBSON from AdMuse wishes everybody the best this season.
CASTING IS HARD
I was sure we’d have all the lead roles cast by the end of last week, now, some cast have added a few scheduling challenges…Katie (genius AD and Co-Producer is working on adjusting our schedule to accommodate but it’s going to be tough).
Actors have [...]

We’re less than a month away from production and things are getting crazy.
CASTING
We’re getting there…it looks like some of my favourite actors in the world are going to be in this film, and that is amazing! I can’t wait to announce the cast list (we’re just waiting for everybody to sign their contracts, etc…). We’re [...]

A NIGHT FOR DYING TIGERS update
Along with Sidney Chiu, there is now another member of the team, Casting Director Lynne Carrow.
We’re speaking with some great actors and their representatives (who have also been great), and we’re working out an audition schedule for a few roles.
It’s very exciting, the prospect of seeing and hearing these characters [...]

It’s all about working. I’ve just returned from a week long script polishing trip to Tofino. It seems like the script for A NIGHT FOR DYING TIGERS has reached a critical mass as far as the number of drafts, and from this point forward, I think I’ll need to focus my rewrites based on cast [...]
