- Shooting of the film was a lovely experience.
- It was awesome. We had a really good time, we laughed a lot.
- We connected very quickly.
- No, I'm not going to calm down, ***.
HOW TO UNTIE THE NEVERENDING KNOT
- How did we get the idea?
I don't know, it just came.
- From the notes in the mobile phone, right?
- Yes. From the notes in the mobile phone.
This is the first time we have done some project
completely professional.
We have done every production step very precissely.
This project was a preperation for our upcoming feature film.
We wanted to see hoh much work needs to be done for 30 minute film.
At the end the project outgrowen itself,
but we controled the situation sucessfully.
There were no big unexpected problems,
which could collapse our sohooting system.
The actors took the project very seriously,
they took it as a very professional project
and not as some amateur "by the way" project.
- Silence, action!
- Before the Neverending knot, I had worked with the team
on the movie Checkmate.
I liked the work we did together.
And because I am very interested in movie making,
So I respond to the invitation and I went to audition.
- On the audition... - This was definitelly the worst part.
I think that nobody likes the auditions,
because you feel like you have to do your best.
But anyway, at the end you are there to do your best and to show what you can do.
- And you don't know what will happen, when you come there.
- Auditions are not confortable.
- Anyway, actors were cool.
It was hard to choose the right ones.
- I got the roll of Kojot.
It was not hard to get into the character.
He likes to eat a lot. I like to eat too.
- Do you know how to make an Elvis sandwitch?
- First things first. Reading of the script.
And then trying to understand the meaning of the character.
Trying to find out what is he about.
- Cezar, tell me something.
You have three pigs and one basket. How would you...
- Stick your riddles in your ***.
- My character mainly wants to be calm.
He wants to be calm and relaxed.
He like fluffy animals and other things that relax him.
But this does not help a lot because he can still get angry and upset very quickly.
- Why are you *** me with the camera?
- We both know that you copyed the photos...
- We had excercises with the actors on the weekly basis,
so that they took the project for theirs and that they could get the required motivation.
And ofcourse they studied the screenplay, they got to know the characters.
That was very importaint.
- Whith the excercises we had I could study the character.
Director and the rest of the crew told us what they expect from us.
How to play each part of the roll.
It was easier to play the roll because of the rehersals we had.
- Are you still there?
- Good day! We are in hair studio Bibi.
- I went to the hair stylist.
And I got pink hair insert.
- After I had an argument with the hair stylist
about the hair cut.
"Do I must have that hair cut?"
"I don't want that hair cut. But this is a character!"
But after that we got along really fine.
- The characters had to be dressed the same all the time of the shooting.
This was one of the biggest chalenges; to dress all the characters the same every shooting day.
Especially Barbara, the Katja's character.
She had a lot of small details. For example, some stars under eyes, colored fingernails etc.
- Some said it suits me, some said its terrible.
There were mixed reactions.
- What an ***.
- Motivational weekend was an adventure.
Location was awesome.
- I, in my previous experience with acting,
never had such preparations for my roll.
As it turned out, this was very usefull later on the scene.
- Hello! - Aloha Barbie.
- We were rehersing, we were playing on the grass.
We had some stretching excersises. We had excercise for articulation.
- It was very nice to hang around with actors and the film crew.
- I'm glad that we could rehers in nature.
That we, actors, get to know each other.
It's easier to act a scene with someone who you know.
- I must say the actors turned out really good. They all comepletely studied the screenplay.
- On the first day, tape did not work. None of them.
The whole shooting day was canceled.
- "All is going acording to plan."
- At the end we manage to solve the problems.
- We got only one money donation.
We invested most of the budget ourselves.
- It is hard to talk about the budget and value of the shooting equipment.
By far most interesting fact is that the camera weight 10kg.
- I enjoyed the most on the party scene.
- Hi!
- I think we needed about 5 or 6 hours to prepare for the shooting at the party scene.
So that we prepared ourselves.
- We shoot the party scene in Marles house. They let us shoot there for few weekends.
- Look if you bet something. You have to hold to that.
Especialy if you lose.
- I must say that film crew had fun.
At least as much as me. It was really nice for me.
- That was really fun to shoot.
We laughed all the time.
- This is one of the scenes which I am most satisfied with.
- This is how the windows looks like after shooting a *** scene.
- This is a newspaper.
And Slavc reads it.
And this is it.
On the cover of the newspaper is a topic of the whole movie. And thats the point of it.
- He said he have some photos of me selling fake tickets.
- Don't call the cops please.
- I really enjoyed throwing the computer over the window.
That was one of the best things.
- Action!
- What a clusterfuck!? - Where do we have a hammer?
I'm going to get the hammer.
- It was interesting to tape computer back together, so it looked alright for that second of flight.
So that it didn't fall apart in the air already, what happened the first time.
- It was exhausting. It was just big enough so I could fit inside.
I had to hold the door from inside that they did not open.
It was hot inside.
I had make up all over me.
The office scene, where I had to beat up a phone,
was exhausting.
Afterwards I felt like I ran 40km marathon.
Because we had to repeate it over and over again.
- Are you still there?
- Good evening from cinema Udarnik, Maribor,
where we are counting down to premiere
of hardly awaited short film Neverending knot.
- Adrenalin is on high level. There is so much people waiting outside the cinema.
They had a suprise for us; we were driven here in the limo.
The felings are great.
- I really enjoyed the shooting of the movie.
- I think this a really good thing.
And at the end, even if you are not payed,
you are richer for new experiences, friendships, knowledge.
It is definitely worth it.
This cavemans (film crew) are realy some talents.
It is hard to say anything bad over them.
- Yes. What can you critisise?
Not even the sandwiches they prepared us for lunch.
- I was really happy that I was part of this. Everybody suported me.
- I hope you liked the movie. You must have liked the movie.
- How was the film accepted on the Slovenian film festival?
- Response was amazing.
It was the only movie in the proram which made audience laugh.
We looked around the cinema and everybody was totaly into film.
- Director? Director was...
- I don't dare to complete the sentence.
- I must say, I am very glad that I was chosen for the role.
