'Stranger in the Woods' Preproduction

Just took a few shots of a costume test for the character of Cedar in the next short I'm doing. I'm not too clear about what to call it, but Stranger in the Woods can be the movie's working title for now. Cedar is a grim reaper style character, the costume isn't quite complete yet either, it needs to be pinned up to actually fit the actor properly, and will probably feature a black drawcord around the waist. The script is pretty much finished, might need some final touches but now I can move into planning the thing out.

Nice manikin thing, where'd you get it?

I got it for free, the only conditions that came with it are that you must provide it with a room and sometimes meals. Seemed like a pretty good idea at the time.

A more serious question, that knife is pretty awesome, where'd you get that? Also how is your actor situation?

Actors are kind of coming along, I've almost secured the two leads the only thing I have to worry about is scheduling, as the main lead is kinda pressed for time throughout August. Shall have to see.

As for the dagger I got it off trademe, it was originally for my other movie I was planning. It's pretty cool, feels heavy enough to be functional if you're planning any sacrifices to the gods.
