I 'm glad (blln askea "'" to write this artiCle en KIPf'ER
BRE:AKrl'ST because it forced rrc to sit d:::Mn and ponder what
this fil.!n is really ahcA.Jt. Entering my f<lill'th y<!1lr of the
Rjr<lreon film pI'Og1'\'lJn , I face 'the dilellfrU of pro<)Jcing the
epic thesis film . This film is being made primarily to prove
to my parents ba& in Vancwver that the $150 a m:nth they s.md
rre is not all going to buy drugs .

But rrost of the other

finally realized that I <laS no rrore talented than any other student fil.Jlm1ker , I
deciOOd that II driJJrl1 """"ld be a bi1d iooa . Then fot" the longest titre I ",,,rrted to

BREAYJ'AST was born .
Since a script d<:;:.esn ' t exist yet I can ooly guess il1: what KIPPER BREA,!(FflST will
be . Roughly, it will consist of several short documentaries on silly events ,
cc:nneC'te<\ by a ~dy naI'l"ative centered en a boy who trevels to these events .
August saw the filming of 1;\o.Q "silly events" ; the first event being the International
rr.:>g JUJl'Ping Contest in Wiarton , the other the Fergus Highland Gums . An anecdote :

officer..no =ke us up was very understanding . The 1l<l:M'il'tive portion o f KB will
be filmld this fall.
Of SOI"I"e in'tel:'eS't to the ted"ties ou't there is l<13 ' s poGt production . Shot on 16nn
filIn, the negatiV!.' is being 'transfc~d to tape and KIPPER BREAKrAST will then be

filmMker the f\ll\Iber of difficulties which .:oris<! in making II film.
Pu1:ting together II crew, O'l5t ing, food, etc:. , are all prd>~ which ~
often difficult to re801~. due usually to budgort limitations.
Nevertheless , one WflY Or another we IOMAge to dIT'ive at that fr.:rltic:
stage of "shooting th!! film". At thi9 otage we m-.e ccnfront ed by new
problems, or rrore = c t l y put , by the abovf:-rrentioned problerM, along
with the <leW ones .
(h Cl.II'
fourth day of rilaing (Ctia:

and seeJred wortly of sharing. f<:r e~le, wto woold have droMIe<I that
after plaming the shoot for Janu.uy . the heart of winter, that the landscape
would be ~letdy (\eyoid of snow? ThU i$ "lCIOCtly what happened to us
when we f ilJrod II series of exterior socnes, particularly those we shot on
the fourtll day . Of COOI'Se , theoretically one <X>U1d post~ the shoot Or
decide to do the interior scenes , but in our eM(! we had alrnudy postponed
and changed plaM 00 often that ~ldo Guhen'Cz . the oo-proO.K:t!l"'.
pn:r>CllTICe(I that we should film with l.ihe.tever .... ather we vere f8C(!d with .
And so it Wo'1S decided, since t he p.:t;m"l'nt of the rented equi~nt _
oot
dependent on the lrr!teQrological o:;nditior>$ of southerTl Ctlt.v-io.
So "it!> a mdiant SUIl shining dcwn, we ...:Ide our way to m
abandcned and desolate area in the east part o f the city. It BeeIMd like the
perfect spot, net just for it ' s aesthetic cI\aract..ristics , but ~ bec.:JUS<!
it WOlld al.J.cM the crew to skwly, and with a cert"':" ~t of privacy, again
begin the fill1\i.ng , which had 00c1l internlpted a IlllIIth before .
Keith Hlady,
too

picked me up eo.rly that rrom ing .
We wc", relaxed cmd fully confident, since every detail of the shooting had
been meticulously pl!rLIJed. When we arrived at the location, the actor and crew
_re all there, with the e""""ption of John Biggar, t he gMfer. Ib::h to our
surprise , tho!re was a OOstle of activity by peq>le and police cl'\I~re . We
quickly diso:>vered that this site had been chosen by saueaue to camtit suicide ,
and he had been fOl.nd hanging f Ta:l a tree. This affected each .;roe of us
deeply . I peroooally tried to imolgine the causes or rrotiV1ltions tha1: had led
