Hello everyone,
I wanted to let people know what's going on with the movie at the moment. Kennyboy has now been in the works for two years, which is a very long time. I know that everyone really wants it to be done, and certainly so do all of us on the production team. When people join up on an indie production like this, there is always the fear that the project won't come to fruition. It is a very realistic fear as often projects do fall apart whether for logistical, financial or other reasons.
When I started this blog, the intention was to put an account on the web of what happens during the production of a movie like this. Someone reading it can see one possible path of a production - lots of unexpected events that can jeopardize and delay it. Some we could control and tried to as much as we could. Others we couldn't, like when I lost my job. Unfortunately, I'm sure a lot of people out there are in a similar situation right now. There's nothing you can really do, it just means that the project can't always move forward smoothly.
We never wanted the project to take this long but it simply has. Just as depressingly perhaps, it will still take longer. That may be disappointing for many of you, but that's the reality. We're not giving up on it. I can assure you all that whatever pain you feel over how long this is taken, it is a hundred times worse for me and the others on the production crew.
During editing, we've found a few pickup shots we needed. We shot most of them, but there are still a few more minutes of footage to get. Mike, Patrick and Nick are going to be working hard on that. Right now, they need positive support from everyone. You all contributed hard work on the production and now we've got a last hard push to finish up those few shots and complete the audio post-production. We should all be proud of the work we've done and support each other as we finish up the work that remains. We've got a neat little film on our hands.
This movie's gonna end someday.

Justin,
Thankls for keeping us all in the loop. It is frustrating to not hear where our work is going. If my comments were to frustrated, please accept my apologies.

Thanks for the update, Justin. Please let me know if there is anything I can do to help.
After all, I already sacrificed a pair of trousers for this production. (Do you guys want your safety pins back?)

Thanks for the update, Justin! I actually was thinking this morning about how watching a finished edit of this movie is something I'm really looking forward too!
can't hide from us now, kennyboy.
Paul, no worries, this wasn't a response to any one person. Lots of people are following the progress of the movie, many of whom gave their time in some way to the film, and they all have similar anxieties. Like I said, we didn't want it to take this long, but we just have to go as fast as we can.
