“Laptops’ Revenge” – Brand New Film Live
by Herr Direktor on Aug.08, 2010, under Film News, Site Updates
Welcome back fans! It’s been quite awhile since I’ve had a chance to update the site so there’s a lot to go over. First, I am proud to announce our second completed short film of 2010, “Laptops’ Revenge” is now live! This project has pretty much consumed every waking moment (not already consumed by my day job) for the last couple of weeks. It was a difficult pre-production and the most complicated post-production I have ever had to do on a deadline. So thanks to everyone for their patience on this, and thanks especially to the entire cast and crew that made the actually shooting of the film fast and painless. Watch the video below and check out the full page for the film here.
Second, I’d like to update everyone on the Slayer Wars 3. In June we shot the last external day sequence for the film and the last night of several that it took to complete the Zombie Onslaught of the VSJ HQ sequence. I’d like to thank everyone for both shoots, but especially for coming out and shooting in the very, very hot day (especially little Beverlee for enduring the heat under the dreaded Jar Jar mask for much of that time).
Completion of these shoots marked passing the halfway point in the shooting of the entire film. We have since been on hiatus on this project for two reasons. 1) To give us time to complete some quick short films before the end of the year. 2) To allow the hot Phoenix summer to pass the hottest months. 3) Finally, to give us some time to figure out where our sets will be for the last half of the production schedule (we’re still working on this, but I think we have some good ideas). We should be going back to Slayer Wars 3 hopefully by mid-September to complete at least one of the sets that takes up the bulk of what is left.
Additionally, I have continued to work with local band, 49 ‘Til Midnight. I recently videoed 3 songs for them at their studio in Tempe (You can see the A Camera footage on our YouTube page). I recorded A and B Camera footage and hope to have those all edited together to make a full video for each of the three songs soon.
Next up for shooting, a short shoot for a video of the Amoric song, “Who Are You (Spooky)”
