It's been a stupidly long time since I posted a blog here!
First off, I'd better point out it's been nearly a year since I've done any stand-up. I'm not sure if there's a specific reason why, it's probably a combination of things. This will change soon though I think. I've been daydreaming some ideas up that might work. I'm thinking of going for a more "in-character" approach though. I think I'd feel a bit more comfortable in that setting. More on that side of things later.
The reason I'm posting this blog is because tomorrow Dave and I are driving up to Aberdeen for the weekend to appear as Bruce and Oscar in the short film "Speed Dating" by Killer Heels Productions. The film is about the strange concept of speed dating (who'd have guessed?) and the even stranger characters it attracts. Andrew and Emma from KHP asked us if we fancied appearing in the movie as Bruce and Oscar and obviously we said yes, so they wrote our characters into the script! I will post another blog up, probably on Monday explaining what went on over the weekend!
In the run up to all this, me and Dave have already been up to Aberdeen twice to film teaser trailers for the film. While we were there we talked to Andrew about eventually getting around to filming "All Roads Lead To Clap-Pool" and i swear it's still going to happen!! But it's still a question of money and planning. We need a decent amount of money to do the film justice and we need to consider the logistics of the monster we've created! Andrew hopes the appearence of Bruce and Oscar in "Speed Dating" will help when trying to pitch for funding though.
Aside from stand up and Bruce Clap I'm in the early stages of a new comedy project... more on this when things start to materialise!
