Mean Green Screening Machines

We did a little green screen test today, just to check the look, lighting and our own general ability. It went really well, everything came out looking good and we had a laugh. Think we have green screening down to a fine art now.

Finished Script

The script is done. I'm happy with it, it has three acts, runs through smoothly and keeps in tone with the original plan for the movie.

The personality of our main character is set, he feels like a real person. His name is Stanley Howard, he works for the railway company organizing their timetables. Not the most fun job in the world but that is what gets the whole film in motion.

More updates will come as things progress.

We're making a film!

Over the next couple of months Aspirational Films are creating a short piece currently titled Aspirations. The film follows the journey through a man's imagination as he reflects on his life goals. All of us here at Aspirational Films are doing all we can to create a short unique film with a distinct visual art style.

For the moment focuses are on adding the finishing touches to the script and trying to get the whole thing in motion, from organizing sets, green screens, projection, dancing unicorns and a range of other things. We will keep the blog up to date with any news from the crew.
