The Remnants (preview)
1 year ago
Two minutes from the middle of the pilot for The Remnants, written and directed by John August. Starring Justine Bateman, Michael Cassidy, Ben Falcone, Ze Frank, Ernie Hudson, and Amanda Walsh.
It was shot during the WGA strike in February 2008, using the SAG internet agreement.
The project is currently in development with 60Frames in association with NBC/U, so it could become a series at some point. Either way, we had a good time making it.

I don't hear freeway traffic in the background, do I? :)
(In real TV land, we'd do ADR.)
That said: Some of the exteriors (particularly behind Justine Bateman) were brutal, and no camera in its range could have handled that without clipping. We knew that while we were shooting.
Great script, John. I gobbled it up. One problem though: "font designer" is probably incorrect. I think you mean "typeface designer".
Read about the differences: fontfeed.com/archives/font-or-typeface/
Having been a screenwriter for years, I further grok the need to use words people understand without explanation. You say font, and people know what you're talking about, even if it's not actually the correct word.
It's a compromise. Ze gets to wear a Helvetica shirt in the pilot, and it's not Arial.
Hey, its Justine from Family Ties!
And the dude from Ghostbusters!
and you've got amanda in there. i loved her on muchmusic (canada) years ago. very likable.
that was great john.
Be sure to let us all know when we can actually watch the whole thing. :)
Plus - great to hear another endorsement for the HVX200. Counting my loonies!
