Re: Pt Fight Organisation

To be fair... I'm bringing Wednesday who's going to be doing the makeup... But the more the merrier.. We're looking at bruising, cuts... Burns... things like that... I'm putting some squib packs together (although they'll be limited to impact detonation) but I'm sure we''ll be fine.

Might I suggest we film and tape the commentary later simply so it will fit with the editing. If you do it on the fly... although itll be spontanious... it's gonna make it more difficult to edit it together with complete sentences...

However, I'm bringing a some shiney showman type kit so we can interview the fighters before and after the match..

"...That's right Dan, I'm here at pit side with the Strangler...  Strangler, you're facing the Gruesome Red Roger later in the challenge match... do you have any words for Red?"

"I'm GONNA CRUSH HIM!  GONNA CRUSH HIM TO GOO!!"

"Well that's the word from the pits... back to you Dan"

Ok, anyone willing to meet at the station and share a cab or give me a lift
to the place?

I beleive Mikey is bringing both make up and expertise along and that is why
I thought it a priority to bring kit instead. Mikey knows his own make up
kit and what is in it. The kit I have is stupidly large to carry and not
necessarily any good for what we want to use it for.

Though, if anyone has any decent fake blood it would be useful.

As for personal kit - yes, bring as much along as you can carry.

Mikey again has offered to do this.

Oh yeah - pre fight scuffles and things like that would be great to have.
What I may try to get are scenes of various fighters scowling and shaking
fists at the camera which can be put up on a powerpoint slide with a load of
'fight statistics' - won, lost, weight, height etc.
