Men of "ACTION!"

One more shoot down.
Y
es, Welcome back Acting Fans and fellow bloggers, yep, it’s Friday and this is our blog post on what we've been up to since Chris's night trip to Bradford for some footage.

Well we have indeed been doing something productive, we have been filming again. Yep, you have indeed read that at the top right, FILMING - and this time not just stock footage or opening shots! We have been filming in character as Harcourt & Haigh for the first time in 2013!

ACTING!

But what exactly have we been filming? Don't we kept saying that we have a lot of preparation still to do before we film Episode 6? What about the Warm bodies we needed? Well, you know that TOP SECRET thing that I couldn’t tell you about? You know, that I also didn’t mention in any of the previous blogs *Wink*. Yeah, you remember. Right? Well, DO you?
Alright! Good you do - finally! You lot are hard work sometimes, you know. Well THAT’s what we have been filming and I'm pleased to say the shoot went well. We got all of what we needed for it, in the can ready to be edited. When will it go up? Well, quite soon, actually.

So what is this TOP SECRET Thing I hear you all cry? Well all I'm going to say is it for something that is coming up very soon and that’s it a….well, it's a treat. Yes a treat, you might even say a treat of a certain shape but any more would be [SPOILERS]

And that is for ANOTHER Friday post, folks. MWAH HAHAHA!

So it’s goodnight from him and it’s goodnight from me.

Guest Star

Welcome back, Acting Fans, we hope you have all enjoyed 'Googolplex' while we are still beavering away here at H&H HQ. This week has seen us shooting at the Flat for Episode 4 of the first series (probably a good job considering the current weather) and we have had a little something else to contend with, or rather someone. You see Vern has acquired an additional flatmate of sorts - his co-habitees have found themselves in possession of a wee kitten, who (occasionally - when it suits him) answers to the name of Muta.

Ready for his close up
And he sure isn't camera shy. In fact it got to the point during takes that we had to resort to Cat Bribery because, whilst his sense of continuity is great, he just couldn't really get to grips with line delivery. Due to this I've decide to stick with Vern as my co-star but I will be keeping Muta's details on file, just in case (he's actually a lot cheaper, if it comes down to it).
We did, eventually, manage to get our shots for episode 4 and a minor scene for episode 3 done and the next shoot will hopefully be this Friday, if weather and circumstances permit.
Vern has also been in touch with the Actors Workshop and we are hoping to get a meeting in soon, fings crossed. That's about it for this week as you can see we're right in the midst of things - we'll see you Friday, chaps and chapesses...
