One Year Ago
It was a year ago that we started filming. At the time I was a little naive. I actually thought that we’d be finished by the end of the 2008, even though I was advised by others that it wouldn’t happen. I figured I’d just prove them all wrong. I guess I was the one that was wrong.
Through the course of this year I’ve been amazed by the level of support, and what we’ve been able to get away with. Early on we didn’t really know how we were going to pull off all our scenes. My idea was that we’d do what we could, and as momentum built the rest would just work itself out. These are some of the highlights that I can remember right now.
- When we needed money for a HDV deck, we asked and we received from our fans and supporters
- Jac let us use the Saint to film
- We had no idea how we were going to do our special effects and Pat showed up to do all our blood work
- CANO let us use their roof top
- Bill was able to secure a barge on the Mississippi through Biso
- Lefty got us a great location for our pirate radio station
- George let us use his warehouse
- Tamme letting us use her apartment all weekend
- We were interviewed on television
- Sean has been awesome in letting us use his shop
- Tim letting us use his car, and even volunteered his home
- Ben let us use his car
- Terror Optics played one of our trailers ahead of when of their film premieres
- Delilah sitting in a tub for like six hours without complaint, at least none that I heard
- All the patient actors that we still haven’t shot
- All the patient actors we have shot
That’s just what I can remember right now. I’m sure there are more things that have amazed me. In the year we’ve had everyone stick by us that was there at the beginning. That’s a lot of people actually to keep in this thing. So I just want to say thanks to everyone that’s been with us this past year. We’ve had our best month so far in June and are starting to see the end. We still are going to need help, so don’t be surprised if we come knocking.
There are all sorts of new pictures, so you can see that we actually do stuff. And if you’re reading this from Facebook know that there are more pictures on our main website than on Facebook. We hope to have the interview on the website one day, but they still have not given us a copy of the interview so…maybe one day. More updates to come.
