THE LAST HIT
From Andy SweetAbout the film:
Comedy, about two criminals, with different idea's about life.
When a debt collection turns into another hit by Rex, Lance wants out, but will both of them keep mental Dave from finding out.
One Actor, One Camera man and a short film.
Made in one Week, Made for £20, Made for some reason?
FACTS:
1/ Made this film because I had a free location to film in, but hadn't banked on 500 trucks coming and going everyday from the yard, this made sound impossible with takes being ruined because of truck noises, drove me nuts.
2/ Some of the filming was done on my own as my Camera man wasn't able to film with me at times..the scene in the garage had work men coming in and out on takes as I tried to finish the film..difficult, Did make for funny takes, people wondered who I was taking to..I said 'the one eyed monster over there'
.meaning the camera.
3/ One shot is very poor in lighting (inside garage walking out) This was down to losing one of our lights and not having time to replace it, Gorilla filming Yeah!. also down to the fact that my Camera man hadn't changed the settings on camera as he was lost in a world of booze. (NO BOOZE ON SET PLEASE)
4/ It did cost £20 pounds infact £19.96.
5/ Mental Dave character is based on Sgt Lincoln from Tropical Thunder, Mental Dave likes to dress up into his favorite characters from his favorite movies and play them out in real life.
6/ The in car scene where shot by using a projector on top of the car and a laptop streaming the footage onto a white screen..works ok could be better with more work.
