Our latest project

Hi Guys, I thought I'd tell you about our latest project from Front of House films, the team behind Dave Granger.

We have just finished shooting an ambitious new short film, we shot on RED cam and had a crew of around 20, and a cast of 4.

The short film is called "Just the 2 of us", It's a dark comedy about two flat mates, Al works all day and Michael stays at home all the time. Al is bringing a work mate round for dinner tomorrow, which gets Michael jealous. Now Michael must find a friend to invite to dinner, which is a hard task as he is severely agoraphobic and can't leave the flat.

Check out the facebook group page that contains some photos taken on set.

More info coming soon.

That sounds so original.

Two flat mates.

One stays at home all day and is agorophobic.

Where do you get your ideas from?

Wow, 1st time I've got anything but nice support from this group.

Well, I didn't write it, my friend Craig did. The guy that plays Dave Granger. But the influences to this story are Morecambe and wise, Classic Farce, Bottom, Leauge of Gentelmen and Withnail and I.

The story is about Michael trying to get himself out of the ridiculous situation he has got himself in by claiming his friend Arnold is coming round, when he doesn't know anyone called Arnold. Thats the classic farce inspired bit, but we have put a dark spin on the whole thing, that's the league of gentlemen bit. And our visual style comes from Bottom and Withnail and I.

The Morcomb and wise bits you will have to watch the film, or just look at the pictures on the facebook group.

I think David C in his own irrepressible style is just pointing out that your synopsis shares a lot with Game On https://www.comedy.co.uk/tv/game_on/ (which by the looks of things you weren't aware of).

Ah yes, we did become aware of that, but the agoraphobic bit is such a small part of the story, I suppose I shouldn't put that in the synopsis. But it does set up the problem that Michael is in, needing to find a friend without leaving the house.

Besides Game on is about 3 flat mates, totally different!

Don't listen to Chappers, he's just nasty sometimes and I think, quite old.

Crew of twenty, blimey! Do you have a union?

The plot sounds OK to me, it's like a neutral room, the script and performances will be the prints and furniture. Can't look at facebook as I've made it against my religion!

Good luck with the production!

Sounds like Game On meets Peep Show, man. However, I shall await with an open mind and bated breath.
