Troma-tized
Yesterday Lloyd Kauffman came to the set. This is the second time he's been there. We just watched the uncut version of Terror Firmer, which is like a Troma meta-movie. Lloyd Kauffman plays a blind indpependent film director whose movie is stalked by a psychotic serial killer. It's probably my fave Troma flick just because I'm nerdy like that. We also watched the making-of documentary, which was really weird because of all the meta-levels. It's amazing how much the two views combine to become very close to the view I have of the Poultrygeist set...
The song and dance number is looking good. They made the one big change I thought would be necessary from day one -- they turned things around to use the Chicken Bunker as a backdrop. The neighbors of the set don't seem to dig it so much. I'm not sure Troma could do anything about it... They could pay them off. On Saturday, they started playing WBLK really loud out the window. It was exactly the thing to bug EVERYONE on set, which is pretty hard to do, considering the diversity of the folks there.
I'll try to get some better footage next weekend, and will send in some images in the very near future. I think (e:paul) totally fixed the Nokia image problem once and for all. It's working like a charm. He's brilliant.

Chant of the Protestor
The church HQ is the rain location, which suXXorz big time. It is so much hotter in the basement of that church. But what a wacky assortment of people and things going on in there. (e:Paul), (e:Terry), and (e:Matthew) don't even know what total freaking wackiness is going on in their backyard... I got so sweaty protesting (er, rehearsing the protest, and the big musical chorus scene) that I was completely soaked. I mean, completely. It was terrible. I bolted right away, but I'm still contemplating whether or not I want to go ALL THE WAY and become a zombie chicken in the movie. On the positive side is that I would get to be mowed down and have squibs planted on me -- I've never done a machine-gun death before. On the negative side is that I seriously sweat so much that I don't know if the prosthetic zombie chicken beak would stick. Seriously. I've sweat so much this week that I'm beginning to slough my own skin...
Anyway, it was fun. And hot.
Thanks to the work that (e:paul) and I have put in on a new moblog, I've posted up some media from the rehearsal. Paul's new P:Mobl system is amazing -- it just sits there checking the mail and putting whatever comes in wherever it is supposed to go. I've built our moblog (http://www.shawnrider.com/moblog) to run from Paul's. Hopefully we can get my stuff into some shape comparable to Paul's stuff, and together we'll have a pretty badass moblog system. At least for users of T-Mobile. I'm sure other systems could be adapted in the future -- that's what Paul is all about, of course.
Paul tells me that he'll be adding moblog functions like these to estrip soon. I definitely hope he does. I think that half the reason people don't use their phones for media and communications is that they don't know it's so easy to do or so fun and accessible. I mean, who is going to invest in a data cable to get phonecam pix off their phone? And who is going to set up a badass moblog system on their own? (e:paul) haha Of COURSE!
Anyway, check out the new moblog (http://www.shawnrider.com/moblog) and vote estrip (http://www.artvoice.com).
