Topic: Scum in LaLa Land Part I : recording mid-august 2017

Plot:
On the lot of ABS Pictures, there's trouble. ABS' rival studio, BURPAMOUNT, has infiltrated ABS and is intent on bringing the studio to ruin. Burpamount has already killed the studio head Brick Iger, and they aim to take down the rest of the people. In the wake of Brick Iger's death, co-VPs at ABS Debby Brickolds and Kevin Zpastud have stepped in to keep the studio running, but they're too busy dealing with investors to dedicate time to stopping Burpamount. So they have handed the investigation over to the people on the lot, much to the unions' unhappiness.

Part I summary:
The murder of Brick Iger.
Here is a comic that should give you the gist of the tone, some of the characters from the film are seen in the comic.
I will remove characters as they are cast.

Notes:
The film has to be complete by the first week of September. Pre-production is already complete and set-building is starting. I'd like to have all of the actor recordings (not auditions, but real deal) in my hands by Aug 20. So there is a bit of a time crunch on this one.

Test Line: "Quiet now, Judy. We don't want to hurt you. Just get out of here."
