Movie Magic tips
Not exactly sure where this belongs, but I've got a script written and we are planning on going into production this summer. Problem is, we are going into it with a basically zero dollar budget. Not exactly, but pretty darn close. Relying on a LOT of favors from people, but everyone seems really excited about getting this thing off the ground. Right now we are looking at 3 problems. Any and all ideas are welcome and appriciated.
Problem 1:
Casting. Not really an issue for the supporting cast, but four of the Main Characters have to really know what they are doing. It's a drama and emotion is important, so it's really hard to just cast friends and/or family. We'd like to do an open casting call, but are debating on ways to spread the word especially to a large enough crowd to get people to show up who will do it for screen credit. Also are looking for a place to host the casting session. (BTW we're in Missouri)
Problem 2:
Police Car/Officer
We need a Police Car. Not something that we're going to be driving around, it just needs to sit there on the side of the road. Lights off. I want to try to keep things legal so as that we can submit to Film Festivals and such. Also need to have a officer, but not sure what kind of uniform I can use. I'm told that we may run into legal issues with impersonation of law enforcement.
Problem 3:
Getting music rights. We could do an original soundtrack, but there are a couple of songs that would be PERFECT as background music. I don't even know where to start with getting rights to it.
That's it, for now. Seriously any and all help is sincerely appreciated.
