Happy Halloween!!!

It's almost time to party with the creatures of the night but we're not slowing down here. Jenna Green is putting the finishing touches on our miniature creatures for our second unit work, I've been working on a few pickup shots with actor Matt Blackwell, and our green screen space is just about ready to go four our final round of second unit photography.

Fun Video For Halloween

Ah, we love special effects. That perfect blend of practical monsters, camera tricks, clever editing and compositing. That's why I was thrilled when a couple of days ago Rocket Jump Film School released this totally rad (Yes, I said rad. We're trying to bring that back, here.) video highlighting some of the practical effects that made us fall in love with movies. Being as I also am a writer, I put together an articles that expands on some of the effects they talk about. You can read it by clicking HERE. Keep an eye out for friends of The Quantum Terror, Alec Gillis (talking Facehuggers) and Tom Woodruff, Jr. (among the Terminator puppet crew) They have a pretty cool You Tube Channel, too.


If you enjoyed that, I'd also like to point you to an earlier article from a few years back. Click HERE to read that one.


Gore Noir Magazine

I'm told there's still time to order your coffin shaped H.P. Lovecraft edition of Gore Noir Magazine, featuring exclusive photos from The Quantum Terror, but they will sell out soon. CLICK HERE to get your copy, if you haven't already. They should be showing up in the mail any day now, for those who are expecting them.


Photos

You've all been so wonderful, nothing but support and not a single complaint that the movie is taking to long. I'm very grateful for that and I promise it's all going to be worth the wait. However, you know me. I've got to give you something. Here are a few more photos from our post production that will give you just enough to make you wonder what you're in for.













As always, thank you!

First Teaser Trailer Is HERE!!!

I can't tell you what an amazing journey it's been, leading up to this point and now we have our first teaser trailer for The Quantum Terror! Watch it right now, and share it with your friends, because you've been on this journey with us, too.


Like all first trailers, it gives you a vague idea of what's coming, but isn't as polished as the finish film will be. There's still a lot of work for us ahead, but we're feeling good about the direction it's going in. At this point, like I said before you watched it, what we really need is for you, our friends, fans, and supporters, to share it everywhere you can. We'll be restructuring out Indiegogo very soon, so that we can raise some finishing funds, but our efforts are meaningless if we don't have an audience.

This week I was also a guest on Zombie Life TV on Channel Austin, which broadcasted live, nation wide. I'll post a link to the show when it becomes available on their You Tube channel. We also have these great animated gifs for you to post around, which you can right click, hit "view image" and then copy and paste the link to on your own social media pages. To post on Twitter, right click and hit Save Image As to download it, and then repost from whatever folder you save it to.

Also, for our viewing pleasure, here are a few photos of moments from the set, that you may enjoy.

Director Christopher Moonlight watches from the monitor. 
Just a note: The last three photos were taken by Paul Dubiel, who is directing a documentary about the making of The Quantum Terror. More on that, later. 
I'm sure there's much more I could tell you, as of now. We've all been working on this project, non stop. However, I must be getting back to work. More updates coming very soon, and they will once again become more frequent. Thank you to all of our supporters for hanging in there. If you're following us on our Facebook Page, you know that we've also been doing live broadcasts from the set, which I hope you're enjoying.

Green Screens & Practical Effects

As usual, we're running all engines at full, with more miniatures, practical effects, and filming. Yesterday, we wrapped Dimitrius Pulido who plays the role of Professor Rathbone. Dimitrius has acted for many years in the film industry, appearing in such films as Sin City: A Dame To Kill For, Machete, and the upcoming Harbinger. We shot both on location, in our green screen studio, and took the time to get some publicity still of him, against our set. 






We also had a great time shooting more green screen work with Kristin Cochell, who will be wrapping her leading role as Samantha Carroll, in The Quantum Terror next weekend. We're both super excited, and sad that our days of working with her on this movie are coming to a close. She's turned in an amazing performance, and I can't wait for you all to see her character come to life on the screen. 






Meanwhile, we've been putting together some new creatures, which you might have seen on my Instagram page. The cast has had a great time interacting with them, as nothing beats being attacked by a good practical effects monster, on set. Below are a couple of progress shots, but I'll be posting a new "making of" video, within the next day or two.




Speaking of posting videos, keep an eye out for the new trailer, in the coming weeks. Due to our hectic schedual on the film, I'm not sure exactly when it will be released, but it will be out in time for the San Diego Comic Con, which our executive producer James Hudnall will be attending. I wanted to have it out sooner, but I feel that it's more important to take my time putting it together, as I want it to reflect the level of excellence that our finished film will represent. Cast, crew, myself, all of us alike have worked really hard to make this movie special and I don't think it would be fair to any of them to release a trailer that didn't make us all feel proud. 

That's all I'll be reporting for now, as we've got to get back to work. Next weekend will be our biggest and craziest film shoot, yet. 


As always, thank you.
