Our schedule


At present we're planning out our schedule for 2010-2011. So far it looks like this:

October - How to make an Australian Feature Film.
December - The Returned Serviceman, The Gay Australian and An Australian Horror Legend.
February - The Exorcism of Jeremy Roads.
April - A Nightmare on Ass Street.
June - Held Hostage and Adopted.

2nd half of year - 20 minute Paintball movie.

We hope to have four films in the competition part of the Rocky Fringe Festival and four in the open film screening. We aim to submit The Ring as well, but we all know it's way ahead of its time.

Where for art thou Yobbo?


The actor we had slated to play the yob in 'How to make an Australian Feature Film' is unavailable that weekend.

What a dilemma!

Where are we going to find a beer drinking yob in Central Queensland?

Other film crews would probably give up at this point, but not CQ Films. We shall persevere!

Tropfest 2011


Last year we entered 'The Ring' into Tropfest. While not expecting to get anywhere, it's always heartbreaking to see a lot of the finalist films either not make sense or be an old joke or suck, or worse; not make sense, be an old joke and suck. That said, last years winner 'Shock' was absolutely awesome and it definitely deserved to win.

Next year entries close on Thursday 6th January and the TSI is 'Key'. Clifton and I discussed not entering again, but getting into 'Best of the Rest' is a challenge I don't think we can resist.

Besides, if all else fails, we can always make another brown eye film.
