All things considered we have done well; we have the plan in place to get post production sorted quickly and on time. We have planned where the money needs to go and how much we need and when, the only sticking point is our producer has said that if we cannot reach these goals on time we will lose our post production team. Essentially shutting the production down indefinitely, because we can only really tap the people we have for these three months so we need to hit the ground running and move fast to get roughly £1250 a month for the next three months. I’ll be selling off everything left over from the film, also a lot of books and other stuff taking up space in our flat.

We will be ending the Casimir Effect Logo apparel at the end of October, the main reason is we have been have issues with screen printing and they are wanting us to put in bigger orders. So to this end were looking at bringing in embroidered apparel as we can order them one at a time, also we can offer a wider range of items.

I’ll do a quick coverage with orders that are outstanding. I’m on top of the printer situation, I hope that at the end of next week I’ll have things ship shape and Bristol fashion, I’ll run the two designs as separate orders 1 week apart. So the Dr. Bob Design will get sent to the printers on the 19th.

Also we’re removing the Dr. Bob design on the 18th, other than what we have in stock it will be the end of the line for that design. We may even look to changing the Logo Design at Christmas, or launch a Café Press store, to offer a wider range of items.

However if you want your Dr. Bob design then you only have a few days left to get your orders in.

We all know there are ups and downs of filmmaking, most of this is cleverly hidden behind a veneer of PR and marketing. Problems are covered up, smiles stuck on and all the time there are people at the back getting no sleep trying to find solutions to problems, they never knew could happen. It has always been our aim to show you the highs and lows of film making.

With this were letting you know were going towards a low. The edit is nearly locked and were about to start post-production, though we have cheap good quality solutions to this there is a financial cost. Our aim has always to have the film finished by May 2011 so we can have it at Cannes of that year. However due to unexpected delays we are running about two months behind schedule. Luckily the schedule was built with two month slack. Now we have used up all our slack and any delays jeopardise Casimir Effect. If we miss the May 2011 window we have to sit on the film for another year (we don’t want that to happen), as Cannes has to be our world premiere. I don’t want to delay the release as everyone who has helped and donated so far wants to see the film. Now we have a rough teaser out there you can see that things are moving forward and that you can reinvest your faith in the project.

I’m typing this in advance, so I hope the first half of the day at SWA3 has gone well. I just say it’s been fantastic and have done with it.

Anyway this is the official post that will give you the link to the much talked about and never appearing Casimir Effect Teaser. It’s been a while but this is hopefully going to give our supporters something to squee about. And in their Squeeing they will squee loudly enough so everyone knows about this. Unlike Time Life this Teaser won’t last forever it will be gone in seven days. To be replaced by the proper teaser trailer, I know many of you will want more, but at the moment the proper teaser is the one we want the world to know about and the one we will open up for you to download and share.  However this one should be the one to tell everyone to watch and push a great influx of people to take a look at what’s happening.

The scenes in this teaser haven’t had any post production work done to them. Which is the main reason for the limited window, and why were asking you to show this to your friends but please don’t copy try to stream or get a copy by other means just use the link below. The reason is this the unfinished scenes could be detrimental overall, but as a boost and something to keep you going until the real stuff hits, this is our gift to you even if it’s only for a limited time period.

We have talked about this for a while now, and with various delays we can now say for certain you will get an online first look of Casimir Effect in this coming week. We will be showing a teaser at Sex, Wales and Anarchy 3, and then for the next 7 days it will be available on Youtube. On the 11th of September 2010 it will be removed and replaced with the proper short teaser which will be available to send out to everywhere.

Once the Teaser is live there will be a new blog post with the link so keep your eyes peeled then tweet, retweet and let everyone know and get them to have a look, before it has gone.
