Last Day of Filming and the Foundation of Filmmaking

I am sipping my hazelnut coffee and sitting here in the wee early hours thinking about this last creative journey. It is always amazing to watch a story come to life from the page to the screen. I have had a unique ride on this film having filmed my scenes before filming for the vfx work. I have been reading off actors to keep the pacing of my original performance. The role I’m playing is tied in ways to my role in Forty Nights and The Christ Slayer, parts 1 and 3 of The Quest Trilogy. If you have not seen these 3 films please do and in order. Part 2 fyi is Chasing the Star. This is going to be a unique story funny yet heartwarming. Not too heavy but some powerful moments that will leave people talking.

Harsens Island Revenge is still playing select theaters until the 10/6/25 home video release. I know a special CO showing will be happening with a Q&A with Don Most in November. More deets soon.

I have to look at my Oct dates and see if things will work to attend The Wild Bunch Film Festival in AZ. I know our lead and director Shane Hagedorn is going and possibly a few others. 14 nominations from our first outside folks to see the film is an encouraging indicator of what audiences reaction will be. Watch the first Wild Faith film and get ready for the second adventure in theaters this winter.

Rom Coms Must Die is in post music and we hope to have a cast crew premiere at years end or very start of the new year. In theaters in Feb in time for Valentine’s Day. Be prepared to laugh as this outrageous film is foot on the pedal laughs. The first feature for director Travis Hayward and first costarring role for Adam Towner.

Wrap up: Many are asking what is next and rest assured we have things brewing. But right now I want to focus on ending the year strong. About to shower up, pack up and finish filming this movie The Secret of the Kingdom Chip. I have a lotta of potential writing gigs but funding is always the trick. The script is THE most important starting point. The blueprint and what will set it apart from the slew of content. It is what attracts talent on both sides of the camera and money. The script is not just a box to check it is the foundation. Until next Sunday my friends!

coffee cheers!
