Good Morning!
I am excited to announce that Wild Rej Productions has a short film in pre-production called, “The Interview”. Keep reading this blog for updates, including pictures, shooting dates, and release dates. It’s exciting to live in a time where anything is possible!
I came across this post on Mystery Man on Film and thought I would share it with anyone who is interested in how film concepts are flushed out. This is an awesome look into how one of the most successful movies of all time developed from idea into a blockbuster.
I’ve been rereading Seth Godin’s book, Small is the New Big, and I love the concept!
One of the things I want to create in the film industry is a small company that can act like a “big” one.
In the current economy, being able to cut costs is important because you can make a profit with less revenue – or you can have more profit with the same revenue.
In fact, in ANY economy, being able to keep costs low is important.
Here’s a link to the trailer for a short film that I helped shoot recently. I look forward to seeing the finished product!
The film is short and designed to be fun. But it has also been a great learning experience as we move to bigger projects.
I just had the pleasure of meeting Shane Hagedorn[link], producer of Fairview Street. Fairview Street is a mid-Michigan produced drama that is playing at Celebration Cinema in Lansing, MI. There are 4 showings coming up at 2 pm and 7 pm on both February 15 and 16.
I have seen Fairview Street and also Shane’s first film, The Model Father. I have to say I am impressed. One of the most striking things I noticed about Shane is that he is incredibly grounded in who he is and what he wants to do. He has stories to tell, and he wants to tell them in a way that makes sure he remains true to the characters, but also to himself. He is going to be around for a while, and I am going to support him in his endeavors as he makes more films.
