Thabo at the movies

Well then, here it is:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wPRCCcDJZfs Kwak! A short movie by Perry Mulder Productions ( http://www.facebook.com/PerryMulderProductions ) for the 48 hour film project ( http://www.48hourfilm.com/ ). Sorry about the Dutch text, subtitles will be included later.
You guys already saw a little behind the scenes peek in my gallery, this is what it was all about.
How the eck did I end up with such an awesome crew? It all started on Castlefest earlier this year when I ran into Perry Mulder, he was filming one of his documentaries (Where is Perry?) where he visits fantasy events. You might recognize him in his wacky outfits. He always stands out.
I initially had no clue what I got myself into. But
RinTheDragon knew and introduced me to his Facebook page. A week or so later I got an invitation to the premiere of several of his short movies, including a zombie movie. The premiere, although little, surely left an impression. They had an entire zombie apocalypse scene rebuild, and you had to walk through a zombie scene to get in, including firetrucks, things that were on fire, zombies, and whatnot. Of course there was a mad scientist at the end, testing us if we were not infected.
During that evening, I was on my own. Rin unfortunately was unable to attend, and I offered my help, both as a designer and meerkat. Little did I know what I got myself into!
A few weeks later I got a phone call if I could help them with this movie,when I asked when, the answer was now. And if I could bring props, suits, and other furries. Unfortunately many were not available on such absurd short notice. So I packed my car and went to the middle of nowhere in the Netherlands. Yes, we have big stretches of nowhere. Nowhere as big as other countries, but still pretty desolate.
Fortunately during the evening I managed to convince
RexyTheWhite to come along as well. And the next day we started to shoot the main part of the movie. It mostly consisted out of one huge shot. In the background we had to change the rooms, redecorate them and take care of a alot of little details before the camera returned. In the end I was very surprised it only took us 5 shots to get it right. But I promise you, the "Making Of" will include some antics.
Yesterday we had the big premiere in one of the Utrecht cinemas, and the public loved it. Tonight we will see if we won anything. And even if we do not win anything, we all had the times of our lives, and in the end, that is what counts.
Stay awesome,
Thabo

Main thing is, you all had fun doing it =3
A bit creepy in parts ( Ronald McDonald in the pool! ) and it was good to see you there. Hope you ate that Happy Meal!
So... the guy opens the box and all these weird things appear in his house. What was the significance of the rubber ducks?
And thank you! :D
OMG, I'm sorry, but I love Ronald. "I'm Loving It!" BWAH-HAH-HAH-HAH-HAAA!!!
And I still wear that jacket, its le awesome.
