I was at the SPOOKY EMPIRE
Horror Convention this weekend with John Gotschall, my filmmaking
collaborator. We shared an exhibit space sponsored by Blue
Herron Films Int'l of Daytona with Jon Provost (Little Timmy
on LASSIE). BH is working on the new ASTRO ZOMBIES film.
We put up a casting call sheet with sign "WANT TO BE
IN A MOVIE?" That really worked and I think we got
around a hundred would be actors signed up. Out of that
we got one really qualified girl... er, woman... she's fully
deployed... who may become our next local leading lady.
Hopefully she'll show up for Monday's shoot. The actress
we had originally signed for this film backed out Saturday
morning (Aarrgh!) but we were able to replace her with a
couple others... if THEY show up. Most of talent is driving
up from Tampa. Hopefully no rain on Monday. We've signed
the irrepressible JOEL WYNKOOP (veteran of over 70 Indie
movies) as lead villain in a four picture deal. We've wanted
to work with Joel for a long time. It will be a fun shoot!
John Gotschall came up with the concept of a series of very
short films entitled AVENGING ANGELS. These will be released
one a week if we can manage that. The idea is to build up
traffic on our site as websites constantly need new material
to get fans to keep coming back. John has completely rebuilt
the AC Comics website which will now feature several new
blog entries each week. These will contain both current
and historical material including video (many video clips
have already been added to the site). It will be launched
next week as soon as we shoot the first AVENGING ANGELS
films on Monday.
