Okay, folks, Charles here, executive producer of Project Swan. It's been a while since anyone has posted an update so I thought I should post something, at least to let everyone know this project is not dead.
I've entered into a class being conducted at Kettering University here in Flint to establish business relationships. I've also been planning furiously around the movie. It would seem I will need no more than (hopefully) ten full days of shooting to complete my short film, titled Among Thieves. I'll start filming on August 4th (subject to change, seeing we're as yet 4 months out from that). I still need some locations and a few actors to fill the 8-person cast. I'll be posting a casting call soon for actors, actresses and crew.
Keep an eye and ear out for more rumblings soon-ish. And if you want to help out on any of the films, either mine here in Mid-Michigan or the two being filmed in Southern California, let me know. I can at least point you in the right direction.
Let's make a movie!
~ Charles

Superbowl Weekend by Charles Shaver
Hey folks,
Charles here. I'll be taking time to enjoy the weekend and watch the Superbowl. The Red Green Show is on tap for my activities tonight... and a Henry Weinhard's Vanilla Cream Soda. ;)
Next week I'll be back at Project Swan in a big way. I need to continue assembling cast and crew, need to continue script edits, to break down the script into a shooting script and begin scheduling. I've been pricing light kits and keeping an eye out for other good equipment.
Of the three lead actors that I need, I've got one. I'm in talks with a second. And I have yet to find a third. I may also have an actress for the part of Mila, a young farmer's wife.
I've secured two locations this last week, however, and that makes me feel pretty good. The proprietor of one of the locations was super excited to hear a beheading would occur on her property. Haha!
All in all, things are rolling along at a decent pace and progress in pre-production is being made.
Cheers,
~ Charles
