Money

While bored I figured out it would take about twelve thousand dollars to do everythinig I want (at the lowest possible degree). This includes purchasing all my own equipment, which may or may not happen. The ultimate lowest I could go would be around five hundred dollars which covers only the essentials. Not the most exciting, but viable (this excludes any salaries my actors and crew may demand).

Trailer

This is not exactly related to the Thin Man project but it has some corralations. Almost all modern previews end in what I like to call the 'preview montage.' It is a collection of unrelated shots, most of them involving action of some sort. It would be wonderful for an action movie to break away from this control, thus I will attempt it with FtTM.

Update

There is literal nothing to report. The script has stalled and other projects are taking precedence (such as actually getting a book out the door) so Fencing the Thin Man is on permanent hold unless a new source of income appears (which is specifically devoted to the FtTM project). I still expect the Lattes, though.
