Short film I originally created for the 48 hour film festival. My team received silent film. After the festival I made it no longer a silent film. This is my first short film. I was the DOP, Editor, Special Effects Supervisor, Sound Mixer, Steadicam Operator, and Chief Lighting Technician. I'd...

I guess it all depends on what you plan to do with it in the end.

Although I didn't originally think of it as a comedy when writing it. You're right that is what it became. Which is fine.

Read some of it. I like it. I think if it was more PG-13 It have the potential to be a great feature.

I would love to do that but I think it will be hard to film such a scene on my budget. So I'm doing the implied robbery.

I'm definitely planning on refining it more before shooting it.. I'll expand on the characters as you suggested. I haven't figured out the one liner I want to put in there yet so that is more a memo to myself to fix that section.

Found a climbing gym. I'm going to investigate further.

I have all the needed equipment and would be willing to work a weekend for free but you would need to provide transportation and lodging from Miami. (unless of course you live in South Florida then nothing)

Micro budget (1k). So definitely can't get stunt supervisors and stunt men. I'd honestly be happy with the look of a dummy attached to the rope rappelling but i'm not sure if the city would let me get a permit for that or if i'd even need one?

The scene I'm trying to create is two actors rappelling down a rope from the middle of a high bridge. What are my best options to making it look real on film? I'm fine with the shot being 300 feet away. I think I'm going to try to find out if I can get a permit to use a dummy. Does this seem...

I added some more also. I was amazed when Mac returned but I wrote some lines that make sense and the story great.

Whenever I try to convince someone to watch Fight Club I tell them how I wish I could watch it again for the first time.
