This week I posted the audition for Lone Viking on L.A. Casting. The response has been huge, and the talent pool is incredible! Actors who attach to our films are promoted by Blinking Dog Productions through photo-shoots, web series and material developed specifically for them. Tomorrow, we are shooting Lars Slind with a few model/actors listed […]
The television show I am developing called Cole Maddux – C.I.A. has just booked another lead. Julia will be played by Stephanie Gerard. Stephanie auditioned for us a few months ago and left a big impression. She’s described as a “singer, actress, environmental activist and animal lover… French-Mexican, raised in Canada… Lover of the Beatles […]
Playground has been released. This is the film that was a test to see how fast we could turn a short around. Within 5 days the film was conceived and executed. We wrote it in two days, cast it in two days, and shot in one 8 hour day. Post took considerably longer because of the […]
We will be shooting Watching at the end of September. Brad wrote this short, and it has the potential to be a television show. Rachel Alig has just signed on to play Emily. Watching also stars Jonathan Medina… And John Tolle Barlow.
I am happy to announce we have our first attachment to our feature film in preproduction, Lone Viking. Lars Slind signed on to play the role of Rodmar Svan, the Lone Viking. We have worked with Lars in two of our short films (Harley, Playground) and with his Norwegian heritage, I knew he would be […]
Currently, we are coloring Playground with Resolve. Resolve is a color correcting software used on many Hollywood films. It’s easy to use and a lot of fun. I love filtering through the different settings to see what looks best. From there, I tinker with the color wheels and play with the range of RGB levels until […]
The first cut of Sisters was completed today. Premiere Pro is not an ideal edit system, but it’s faster than AVID on my Mac Air. The cut needs trimming and polishing before it’s ready for music and coloring. I also spent some time writing Cole Maddux – C.I.A. and working on the show bible. The […]
Tonight, Brad and I went through the effects shots for The Sphere and broke down the cost that we would have had to lay out to get these shots done. The budget for The Sphere with all visual effects is estimated at $180,000! That’s incredible! The smoke shots alone are very difficult to design and […]
As we near completion on The Sphere, there are still more visual effects to design and lots of render time to get through. This is the latest shot of the Sphere, flying towards space from the surface of the moon. It’s a pretty cool perspective.
We have so many projects up in the air right now. Sphere, Sisters, Playground–all ready to be kicked out soon, which will free up some much needed space on our drives. Catharsis is shot and waiting for it’s turn to be edited, and The One is still in limbo since our lead got a Netflix show. As for […]
