4500 1

For my 4500 film I will be doing a scene from a feature length piece i have been working on for about two years. The basic plot of the full script is "Three college roommates go on a road trip through the west, and hilarity ensues." I have some footage from the road, my super 8 footage can be seen here

and some time-lapse footage can be seen here

The scene for 4500 will be the emotional climax which takes place in Portland OR. I will explain how the three got to where they are i will make a short intro (about 1 min) using footage from the road.

I also have an image, and I will be interested to see if anyone knows what it is

My biggest challenge right now is figuring out names for my three main characters. so far they are simply the Architect, the Engineer, and the Artist.

Finally, here is a short excerpt from the script.

Inside the bathroom the ARTIST takes his boot off,

ARTIST

oooohhhh

to reveal a severely swolen foot

ARTIST (CONT’D)

Ohhh!

cut to the artist in the shower, feeling hot water for the first time on the trip

ARTIST (CONT’D)

AAAHHHHHhhhhh

The ARTIST leaves the bathroom, and the ARCHITECT enters it. He flosses his teeth

ARCHITECT

Ahhhhhhhh

Smells his arm pits

ARCHITECT (CONT’D)

ew

and feels hot water in the shower

ARCHITECT (CONT’D)

OOOOOHHHHHHH, yeah

Next the ENGINEER goes to shower with the bong. He shaves

ENGINEER

eeehhhhh

rips the bong

ENGINEER (CONT’D)

ohhh ho ho

and gets in the hot shower

ENGINEER (CONT’D)

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Finally, NIKO goes to shower. he puts two Alka Seltzer in a cup and inhales the vapors

NIKO

ahhhhhh

looks at his Empire symbol tramp stamp, just now seeing it for the first time

NIKO (CONT’D)

awwww, god damn it

and enjoys the hot water

NIKO (CONT’D)

Ahhhhhhhhh ohhhhhhhHHHHH

and throws up in the shower

NIKO (CONT’D)
