Help SiL Get This Done
Alright chumps and chumpettes, SiL needs a hand to get this masterpiece moving. I was going to try to scrape this thing together myself, but I don't have the energy to do every little thing right now, so if I could get a little bit of help getting resources together, that would be rad.
I haven't finished the script yet (And may never: Somehow I feel not having one will be a boon to this production), but I know there are some things I'll definitely need. Or at least could make use of:
Cut-out Masks of Famous Actors: Or even B-Grade. Anyone really. What I need is something similar to the Obama mask posted earlier: A clear front-on photo that I can cut out and use string with. I don't mind if you find a photo online and just Photoshop it to separate the head. Heck, I don't care if you use MS Paint -- the tackier the better, I suppose. Any of the AvPR actors could be handy. If I could get Hugo Weaving and Kurt Russell I'll cyber you. Free of charge.
Cut-out Masks for Predators: My plan for the Predators is simple, but utterly genius: The seamless intercutting of actors in costumes, and MacFarlane Predator action figures. And by "seamless intercutting" I mean "Awkwardly switching between figures for wide shots and a dude wearing a long-sleeved shirt and cut-out mask with a calculator duct-taped to one wrist and two kitchen knifes duct-taped to the other". Ideally I'd use two masks: One of the Predator's unmasked face, and then a cut-out of a Predator helmet over it, so I can have dramatic unmasking scenes. If I can get multiple Predators and masks, rad, if I can't, no biggee, using the one mask for every Predator is probably going to work fine.
If anyone -- or even several people doing a little bit each -- could make something up for me in their spare time, that would be really, really appreciated and cover about 70% of the prop work needed for this thing.
