Gareth Evans is one of the Director i've considered using for my Gangsta live action adaptation series, because where he does action crime thriller movies which has very detailed graphic choreographed fighting scenes similar to that of the Anime Gangsta, i feel that he would be suited for this role, and coincidentally, he just so happens to be doing a screening plus discussion this Sunday hosted by MCM London Comic Con at London Excell.
Having watched quite a few interviews he has done for various channels online, plus watched behind the scenes footage from his films, i've decided to go along to the screening and discussion session this sunday so that i can not only find out more about his work, but also ask him a few question of my own about the industry, budgeting, networking, working with a big cast and crew, plus marketing/branding and distribution, as the questions to these answers plus further topics Gareth may discuss at this seminar i believe will help me towards developing my Professional Pre-Production Package for my Gangsta live action adaptation. |

Just to outline, these are some of the reasons that i've considered Gareth Evans as director for the Gangsta live action adaptation series:
He is known for directing martial arts crime thriller films.
He can work with a small budget and achieve really good results.
His prep for action choreographed scenes is very detailed, in that he pre-films the action scenes on a handy cam before they're filmed properly for the 'film' creating a video storyboard for the whole cast to work from.

Hopefully from this seminar on sunday, i should gather some useful information that will contribute towards the research methods plus preparation for my pre production package!
