I got wheels. Take a peek...

[Flicker Pictures]

I'm so jazzed about this, wanted to share.

The first car I was considering I put a note on it for the owner and never heard from them.

The second car was the one I really wanted, but the guy said he was going to put it up for sale, so I couldn't count on it being available.

Then I moved on and found THIS ONE, but the guy was flaking on me and didn't get back to me.

On a lark I swung by the place of the 2nd car -- a Ford Falcon -- and the owner Tim was around. He decided not to sell it because his kids were having too much fun with it.

Check out some pics. Funny? God I hope so.

Just means I won't have to spend any time decorating it or messing it up.

The goal was to find a small car with a trunk with tons of detail for the camera to play with.

Now onto securing the location. Of course, it all might fall through, but today I celebrate. : )

Love it! I feel like Fozzie should be driving

(on a side note, it might be polite to blur out those license plates )

That's a birth control car if I ever saw one. It screams of abstinence.

I was thinking the same thing. Done!

Cam-- indeed. So not a chick magnet. It's a Chick Repellent

Speak for yourself!

 

[Flicker Pictures]

Hee hee...

Hey lady, wanna lift? honk honk

 

[Cracker Funk]

Yes! That car is just my style. Slap some paint on there, and you've got yourself a sweet ride.

That would depend upon the rather subjective quality of the chick.
Ie: if she ain't interested I probably ain't, either.
Any chick that stops and looks the car over real good while her brain starts whirring and ideas start popping - that's a viable candidate.

Hop in and we'll take it for a spin. IndieTalk road trip!

* how many filmmakers can fit in a Ford Falcon? *

Instead of the proverbial casting couch it could be the casting bench seat!

"Beep! Beep! Nice headlights."

What's my motivation in this scene?

 

[Flicker Pictures]

Ha ha!
Yeah, instead of The Lincoln Lawyer it's The Falcon Filmmaker

I do all my casting in the backseat, babe.

 

[CamVader]

Didn't they drive something like that on Dragnet?

 

[Flicker Pictures]

I guess they did have a Ford, but not a Falcon, a Fairlane?

"The model of the car has been changed to protect the innocent..."

 

[CamVader]

I was talking about the bad guys!

 

[Flicker Pictures]

I'm sure they did!

Here are some sound bites from the rehearsal we did back in November.
