Straight 8 film: 2009. An Ape Odyssey


...so... a couple of weekends ago, we all trooped down the Bretts Quarry in Kent near Dungeness and shot our musical epic. 2 principal cast, 7 dancers and 10 crew. It was quite an undertaking, but we pulled it off. the weather was amazing as you can see by the image.

2009: An Ape Odyssey is a one-take, one shot, musical sequel to 2001 - the story of a lovelorn astronaut, an evil alien, an oppressed group of mining apes, and the cheesiest lyrics since 'The Producers'. Coming to a Straight (ish!!) 8 screening near you this summer...
