homies of illbilly... what up!
it's been a long time since we've seen many of you, and i'm sure you're wondering what distant mountain in asia kenny is sitting atop, reading the tao de wang, and what tedious office job has swallowed andrew for the rest of his miserable life. funk dat! offices hate andrew and kenny can’t read.
truth be told, we've been working our asses off on our BIGGEST and STUPIDEST project yet... Evolution: the Musical! that's right, we're putting all our energy into this thing and setting our sights on sundance 2007.
it's been a blast to work on and we have the most incredible cast, crew, and creative team ever assembled in the history of bipeds (yes that includes the T-rex).
so that's the update. what's that? YOU want to help US? hmm... i hadn't thought of that. well, off the top of my head, i guess there are a couple things that could help this project be even more kickass:
1) AN OUTDOOR FOREST LOCATION NEAR SAN FRANCISCO. we are planning to film a number of scenes in a forest area on May 11th, 12th, 13th, 14th, 28th & 29th. many of these would be evening/late night shoots. we are scouting locations without many buildings around, although our ideal location would be close to someone's house for use of power and bathroom. ideally, the spot would be within 45 minutes of the san francisco. we will discuss compensation, trade, etc. with anyone who may want to host us for these intense and fun shoots. the host will get a credit in the film, a dvd copy, and our undying gratitude. hit up Andrew with any contacts and we'll go from there. 415.299.1167 or andrew@illbilly.com.
2) PEOPLE WHO SEW AND GENERAL CRAFT FOLKS. we need seamsters of any skill level to assist with the creation of costumes ASAP. we need help in cutting patterns, pinning, and sewing garments. you are welcome to work in our work space and on our machines, or can work from your space if you prefer. we also need people who can make legwarmers, mittens and other accessories. any level of contribution welcome. you will receive a credit in the film and a DVD copy upon completion. interested parties should contact Sig at sig@hafstrom.net.
3) A SOUND MIXER. we are seeking an experienced sound mixer for on location sound recording. in addition to compensation, they will receive a credit in the film and a DVD copy upon completion. we would prefer someone with their own equipment including a boom microphone and wireless lavaliere. this would be for 12 days in May. anyone interested should contact Doug at dugitty@yahoo.com.
4) MAKE-UP ARTISTS/HAIR STYLISTS. film experience is a big plus. we need people that can commit to at least 3 of the following dates: May 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 11th, 12th, 13th, 14th, 26th, 27th, 28th and 29th. we could use at least 3 people. there will be a small amount of compensation and everyone will receive a credit in the film and a DVD copy upon completion. anyone interested should contact Sig at sig@hafstrom.net.
5) INVESTORS. it takes a village to raise a child... and hella moolah to make a film. we are currently looking for investors interested in helping us make this dream a reality. we'll be honest with you, a 25 minute musical comedy about evolution is not likely to make a huge return. but having said that, this film is going to kick ass. if you have interest in being a part of the film world, you won’t regret having your name in the credits of this unique production. email or call Andrew at andrew@illbilly.com or 415.299.1167.
$100 gets your name in the credits, each $250 after that gets you 1% of the gross profits of the film. it’s kind of like buying a lottery ticket, but you don’t have to scratch us unless you want to.
if you already know you want to contribute, please make your check to Andrew Bancroft and send it to:
111 Central Avenue
San Francisco, CA 94117
we’ll make sure to show you love.
6) OTHER RANDOM STUFF. okay, so you can’t even afford sour cream for your burrito, much less to invest in a movie. and you don’t sew, mix sound, paint faces or know anyone who has a cabin in Marin. well, we still have a long list of items that we need to gather. this list will give you some insight into how fun this shoot is going to be. if you have one of these items and want to contribute, please contact Sig at sig@hafstrom.net.
WE NEED:
A) MAKE-UP SUPPLIES AND FACE PAINT (particularly dark pencils, earthy shadows, foundation, powder, etc)
B) LARGE ANIMAL BONES
C) BIBLES
D) A ROCKING CHAIR
E) AN ANTIQUE CLOCK THAT WORKS
F) A BABY BIB THAT WE COULD MAKE FIT AROUND AN ADULT NECK
G) AN S&M STYLE WHIP (no, Andrew doesn’t own this item)
H) A SWEET WALKING STICK
I) A STAFF OR SCEPTER
J) PRIMITVE WEAPONS
K) HOLY CROSSES
L) FOAM/STYROFOAM
M) WOMEN’S PANTIES
N) FAKE BLING BLING (gold chains, huge gold rings, etc.)
O) A LIVE HAMSTER (no harm will come to it)
P) PITCHFORKS
Q) SHOVELS
R) A LARGE GENERATOR FOR LOCATION SHOOTING
S) A JESUS WIG
whether you help us in this production or not, we want you to know how awesome it's been to have community support in SF from day one. you've made true celebrations of popcorn anti-theater, late night with god, lord of the drinks, jelly d and all of our silly endeavors. we hope you are loving life.
all mushy n' shit,
