Girl of Steel Fan Movie...

Hey everybody

Not really sure if this is in the correct place, as I normally keep rather quiet on these message boards but here it goes:

I just wanted to make people aware that I am working on a project called Girl of Steel, which will be based on Supergirl. If we've raised enough money then I hope to start filming in the summer.

The lead is played by an enthusiastic (and beautifull) cosplayer and Model Dawn, this is her in costume...



To help raise money, stock photos will be sold of Dawn in various poses, sorry no nudity, just like the final film.

Please visit this web address for more info...

If I'm a bit vague, I appologise, but I'm not that good at writing this sort of thing.

Thanks

Mark

Your model is beautiful Interesting project...

Looks interesting!

I would love to hear the planned synopsis or maybe even see a trailer
(both could help finding people ready to fund the project)

Anyway I hope you get enough funds to start the filming.

she is cute!

Thanks guys, what gets me is her enthusiasm, since day one she's wanted to do it!!!

A general synopsis of the film would be:

Kara was sent to earth to protect Kal-el during his youth, however something went wrong on her journey, which caused her to be some years late.
Superman is now missing, a long with Lex Luther. Mercy Graves, Lex Corps vice president, has taken full control of the company during Lex's absence, meanwhile, strange, zombie like creatures, are wreaking havoc on the streets of Metropolis.

I hope that's getting you excited, I intend to use wires in front of green screen for the flying scenes too, there will be kryptonite scenes.

As for trailers, I don't have one as yet, but in the coming weeks I hope to have a showreel with re-enactment to certain scenes from the Superman scenes.

Sounds like an interesting film, looking forward to some previews!

I agree with SGfan: can't wait until film is made. The model chosen for this project is great!!!!

Thanks everybody, I hope I don't disappoint

I feel it's time I should update people on this, well, if you're on Facebook then you probably already know, that until further notice it has all been cancelled

What happened? Did financing for film fall through the cracks?

I'm very sorry to hear this...

I guess things are pretty much over since you removed the Facebook page too...

Its a shame that the project has been cancelled. I hope someone comes up with the financing the producers need for the film and cast along with crew and cast that will bring this into fruitation.

Although the financing hasn't helped, the main issue has been my health, for a long time, I've been struggling to cope with depression so much so that it has now cost me my family.

To top that, I felt that Dawn, who was playing the lead, in my mind lost interest in the project, she agreed to do a short 5-10 minute mini-film. After wasting £800 of my own money (costume and camera cost) and being ignored when I asked when the mini-film would be shot, the decision was made to go our separate ways, I don't even know if she's gonna send the costume back despite the numerous requests.

Hi Roden - I'm really sorry to hear about your project issues. Chin up - you made it farther than many and dared to dream. Maybe you'll get to take another shot at it. Your health should be priority #1 - it's why my business model is the way it is - time is limited for even fortunate people.

I can sympathize with just how much work and how many moving parts there are on these and how easy it is for things to fall apart. Rule #1: Never leave a costume or equipment with your talent or friends. Rule #2: Have a backup plan for weather, cast not showing, police bothering you for permits, and everything taking longer than you hope - even in pre-production. Rule #2: It has to stay fun and be "for you" or it's never going to be worth it.

Maybe start small(er) with a photo shoot and photo manips if you try again - it's how I started.

Wow... I'm sorry to hear she doesn't look like a nice person

Thanks for the advice Random, I did want to do Photosets first, however, Dawn suggested making the mini-film first.

J2001, as for her being a nice person, I've mentioned before, she was enthusiastic about doing it, when she received the costume she was very excited, even said she loved me at one point for all the new people who were liking her Facebook page, which gave me a positive boost, then all of a sudden she just changed and now I'm the most hated man in Britain in her eyes

cute girl...
