Berlin, Berlin, we'll shoot in Berlin!

The most people interested in film thrive in Berlin. This is the reason that I shoot with some of the "e-mail contact persons" in a dirty shack.
Scully (President of b-ware-media), Alex (Multiaround expert and a sinister fellow who does not want you to take while masturbating), a 40-year-old (who was actually already 40 years) and a group of other people come from far away - they were all here voluntarily.
Naturally, I had only my camera, tripod and a mini-defective battery, which was already empty at the beginning. Many people, less equipment, less time, zero experience, although it was eventually finished the first scene. Sounds not so much troma-like.

Shoot in Nuremberg

What went well in Berlin, that have to go well in Nuremberg. here is nothing going on that have to do something with filmmaking. But I live here, so the transport is easier.
Look for location - no problem. Actors look for - hmm no one answers? Hand out flyers - hmm no one answers. Ask people, who still owe me a favor ever. With the diversion of location, could also be shoot the one or the other scene with a very sparse crew in Nuremberg. With the help of André Albrecht (President of the Tagträumer Filme), der Sandynel, Gensch (President of Gensch Media) and some of my work colleagues something could be shooted in the "nothing to do with film making" Nuremberg.
Now everything was turned. Everything, except the FINAL scene!
The only scene in which my newly gebastelte TROMAGGOT doll should come in use.
(If that will break, the project is history)

finally Final-Shoot

Where? Of course, in Berlin!
A suitable location is found quickly (thanks to Filmyard): The former radio station of the GDR.
It was advertised again. A lot of people have made themselves (well, this is Berlin).

"I, X years, sexually, would like to participate in its production, no-budget does not mind. Vita in the Annex."

Sounds promising. But when the then realized what Troma is at all, are an unbelievable number jumped again. Under 40 registered one was there, who had less time to Troma googled or has applied for Tromaggot few times and then the first place. The others played along with that, but Troma did not know I had to warn, what that means. Actors who know Troma, of course they were shpadoinkle, especially when you tell them that they have to act tromatically (and look at a not there when I had puke in the coffin at a funeral).
With 20 men, two cameras and camera dolly of turning into elaborate Tromaggot just two days was completed. It has not been reached, what was planned, but I was then ten pounds lighter - but is also something. Due to time pressure several scenes were filmed in parallel, which was pretty cool, and the "Troma" in the shooting again increased. "film light should be in place and someone still brings film by light", it said in the workshop, but has not happened. Angry - 20 men on the set and the light is missing. Now it feels its way through during the filming already. The HD camera has not been able to achieve the desired picture, much to Clear the shots came over - no lights - no color, but that's when Troma does not matter - on 90% never achieved the desired image (with the other 10 % The camera was not on). With difficulty, hardship, and the use of all emergency medical service was turned off.
