BARE BONES - DAY 1
Day 1 of the Bare Bones Experience is officially over.
Brad, Sam and I spent the morning checking out of the Travelodge (the bizarre, movie-set, hotel that Matt found for us. We won't blame him, we'll just make him stay there when he arrives on Thursday!) Then we checked into the La Quinta and spent the rest of the AM waiting for our breakfast over at Denny's, which took nearly an hour from the time we ordered until the time we ate... they warned us ahead of time that they had a problem in the kitchen... they weren't lying.
Shortly thereafter we drove to Tulsa to the studios at KWHB where Brad and I recorded a segment about When Love Walks In and it's Bare Bones Festival screenings for their show Vision 20/25. The show airs 5 times this week on 81 cable systems throughout Oklahoma, Kansas and Arkansas.
After the taping we hit Taco Cabana again, then came back to Muskogee and went to the Bare Bones Office and hung out for a couple hours with festival coordinator Oscar Ray. He felt confidant that we'll find distribution for When Love Walks In based on the quality of our film and the marketing elements that we're putting into place.
We also started broadcasting the When Love Walks In Radio Network (our "pirate" radio station). Sam created a fabulous radio show with samples of many of the songs from the soundtrack of the film along with bios, backgrounds, fx, etc. So we're podcasting it out of the rental truck. The iPod plays the show and a .9 watt transmitter broadcasts it in approximately a one mile radius from wherever we are. So anyone scanning their radio dial within that 2 mile diameter circle will find us at 89.9FM. The show plays some great music and plugs the screening we have later this week.
