Okay, soon I'll begin filming on my talkie film for school. As such, I will need people who would be willing to help me film and such.
Actors, camera operators, grips and the like will more than likely be needed. The lead roles have all, essentially, been casted. I'm currently in the process of writing the damned thing, however, so roles will come up and may require you to actually act in front of a camera and say lines.
Before I begin, I'd just like a grasp on how many people I'd have willing to work for me, and thus, suffer my directorial style. This project I'm doing is very personal to me, no matter how minor it may seem to others; especially since it's a fucking high school short film.
Nonetheless, I will be somewhat vicious at hindrances during filming. I will be fair, and hopefully not do anything too rash. I cannot offer anything really in compensation, except for my eternal gratitude at your service. And maybe a wrap party.
Filming will begin as soon as I finish writing and storyboarding the thing, which may be another month or so. Like I said, I'd just like to know how many of you I'd have in the boat.
Thanks in advance,
Chris
PS: Here's a basic summation of the film, as I wrote to Patrick Stein:
To sum up: Cyrano de Bergerac in a high school setting.
I'm adapting the play to a modern-day feel (without making it too Steve Martin-esque), where Cameron (the Cyrano character) helps a new student, Kenneth (Christian) woo the beautiful Helen (Roxane). Instead of a team of rowdy cadets, Cameron, Kenneth and Roxane are all involved in a play that Cameron is directing. By the end of the run of the play, Kenneth has used Cameron's wits well enough that Helen has fallen completely and utterly in love with his mind, and wouldn't care if he were ugly. Unfortunately for Kenneth, his parents, who moved to the city the film takes place in, are called back to their original town for good, and "love" is torn in two.
Seeing this as an opportunity, Cameron then tries his own hand at wooing Helen, seeing as his words inspired her love with Kenneth. After several days of the two of them being really buddy-buddy, Cameron decides to tell her how he feels. This leads to him finding her engaged in a big, loving hug with another man. Crushed, Cameron leaves town completely, when we find out that the man was actually her older brother (who will be mentioned earlier in the film often).
Crappy summation, but... it does the job.

I am saddened.
By the fact that I missed the mudkipz.
Goddamnit.
All my hotel stories were dull...
Until now.
I just had a very beautiful young woman step into the hotel, asking if there was a room available. I, of course, said there was... and almost told her the price, until her friend followed in. Her loud, drunk friend.
... Who just happened to be a midget.
Who was also a woman.
I then told them the price for the room, trying my damnedest to treat the little person... NOT like a little person. The dwarf, upon hearing the price, slurred drunkenly, "Hey, will you give us the room cheaper if she gives you a blowjob?" To which the girl laughed, gasping, and leaned over to me, saying, "She's... had a bit much to drink. Don't pay he
