Last time I posted I was hoping that by now "Colleagues" would be in the can. Not the case I'm afraid. Even thought the shoot only involves myself and three others, finding a day when we are all free for two hours has been unbelievably hard.
It's a two hour evening shoot. Chris has commitments with Christmas panto rehearsals, Richie works a shift pattern and Arun has paid sound recording gigs that he is fitting 'Colleagues' into.
We've had to reschedule twice and now we are hoping to get the shoot done mid November.
More updates will come, in the meantime if you haven't seen the Broc Glic Productions website, please check it out. It's still a work in progress but I'd love to hear your opinions
Later

Hey all
Just wanted to inform you all about some casting news that is unlikely to make the headlines on E!.
For any of you who have perused the new Broc Glic Productions website you may have spotted that in the unfinished section called 'Films' there are three movies listed. First up is Little Things, which if you've read this blog before I hope you've seen. But also two more up and coming films 'Colleagues' and 'I Don't Bite'. Time for an update on both.
First up is 'Colleagues'.
I've been interested for a long time in doing a really short film. 'Colleagues' will probably be between 1 and 2 minutes long, so 'short' is the operative word. I wrote it about 4 weeks ago it's been cast and will be shot in 2 weeks time. Hopefully I'll have it completely edited and finished by the end of October. And for those of you who have seen 'Little Things' the cast will be reassuringly familiar, so without any further ado the cast of 'Colleagues' is as follows:
David - Chris Jones
Alan - Richie Nolan
Hopefully you should be able to see 'Colleagues' soon, watch this space.
'I Don't Bite' is something altogether more ambitious. It will be a twenty minute faux-documentary horror. So night shooting and special effects are on the menu. The cast are -
Jon - Iago MacGuire
Gary - Richie Nolan
Abbie - Carrie Richardson
There is one more part that is not quite cast yet, more news when I have it. The shoot is likely to be in February with a release of some discription in the summer. We had a read through of the script about 2 weeks ago with the cast and I have to say I'm really excited. More news about both in the near future.
Lastly I have another short script that I'm playing with. A comedy. Don't know where that'll end up yet, myself and the brother think it's piss funny, the missus reckons it's really stupid. Until I figure out who is right I'll keep that one to myself.
Keep tuning in.
