Yesterday was 'Day 1' of production on
Cougars, NMP's new short horror comedy written and directed by yours truly. Technically I've been in pre-production in it for about six weeks, but since yesterday was our first real physical work on the short, I'm logging it as 'Day 1.'
The story? It goes something like this:
Teenage Sasha constantly battles with the promiscuous ways of her mother, Bastet. When young Stuart decides to walk Sasha home from school, he gets more than he bargained for when he discovers Sasha's and Bastet's dark secret.
I'm going to try to do video production diaries throughout the process. Here's the first one; all about "life casting" for FX make-up.
