A humorus look at the rapture from the pov of those who are left behind, and don't give a damn.

Visuals? How's this for visuals...

Struggling recent grad from FIDM lands a spot in some fashion design contest/reality show. Busts her you-know-whatsis to work on a line to submit, falls asleep at her machine in spite of massive amounts of caffiene consumption, has some bizarre dream where she gets up and looks in her fridge for sustenance, sees bacon and becomes suddenly inspired by the appearance of it, and furiously produces several really bizarre (think Wicked costume bizarre) items that look way too much like bacon. Then she wakes up, inspired and starts creating several much more normal looking pieces that utilize the same color scheme, beating out some other designer whose all-brown line appears to have been inspired by the chocolate truffle they're eating in the one shot you get of them. And bacon is served at the celebration (for an ironic twist we could have the protagonist die of food poisoning from undercooked bacon). Chocolate designer gets last laugh.

I've been a grip before- I've got mad skillz with gaffers tape.

I think that bacon MUST be involved, but I would prefer to keep it as a sort of "you got to know the joke to get it" thing. So, years from now, when the film becomes a cult classic, there can be a drinking game involving bacon. Every time bacon is seen or mentioned, you have to drink.

CoasterMatt · 01-15-2008, 08:18 PM

Even better, we'll play the bacon drinking game while making the movie...

Flippyshark needs to chime in. He's got several already-done vehicles.

If you want rabbit acting, DP better be prepared to shoot miles of film and Tom better be prepared to edit his socks off.

Of course I offer writing assistance (though I have no script experience) and I'm not camera shy (obviously), though I am not a great actor by any means. I also offer my photoshop services for poster design.

Ideas....if we can only find this place we could shoot a hell of a movie.

There's a bar down on PCH that looks like this (at least from the outisde). I think it is called the Pit Stop.

Hell, we could dig up the thread and film one of our inspiration stories.

I wonder if we could use bacon as gaffer tape?
