Family Romance

Loser-weepers -

Things are going swell on the PROMISE KEEPER set. Our days have been long, but we're getting a lot of awesome footage, and things are really coming together! Watching the dailies has been extremely rewarding, seeing all of our weird and perverted ideas coming to life on the medium screen (I have a projector, so it's bigger than a TV, but not quite as big as a movie house). I would love to show you some screen shots, but we don't want to spoil anything. I will say this - our own cast members, some of the people that helped come up with pieces of the script, are surprised on a daily basis by how dirty and weird the movie actually is.

It just warms my heart to hear things like that.

Meet our newest additions to the cast!

As a special note to everyone who pledged money to the film, I can not thank you guys enough. This is honestly one of the most rewarding experiences of my entire life, and we wouldn't be here without your help.

We don't update this blog very frequently because we don't know how interested people are in reading about our day-to-day. If you want to know more about the process of all this, subscribe to the blog (it's free, of course) and let us know, and we'll keep you up to speed.

Thanks again, everyone.

Original Art and Lust Lust Lust!!!

Cowboys and Indians -

First I want to thank you guys for all of your pledges! The last I checked we had raised $440, which is almost ten percent of our goal! You kids rock! And if you have yet to pledge but are itching to, you can do so HERE!

As you may know already, the crew and I are spending a lot of time and effort on the look of this film, building original sets, making a LOT of art for our walls, and, of course, creating striking and memorable looks for our characters. We have been purchasing a lot of really interesting vintage dresses and accessories, and then going to American Apparel for the rest of the individual pieces we need. The following are selected images from a set we did focusing on a few of our props and some of the clothing we have purchased for the film. I hope you like them!


(Bobbie Sue in her own dress, holding a statue we bought at Goodwill).


(Marika in a simple grey dress, but the red stockings will be in the film. These dolls are in the BEDROOM scene).


(Actor Jake Gott in his outfit for the film (he's not in it very long, wink wink), holding a sign made by Michael Sean).


(Carolyn Main in one of her three outfits for the film, but without the mustache that she'll be sporting. She is holding the "Crucidix" that she made just for the film).


(This is Bobbie Sue as Henrietta. This is her actual outfit from the film, and she is holding a painting I did and a picture pulled from a children's book, framed together).


(Jake Gott's body is in so much of the film that it is almost a prop. Here he is showing off his goods).


(This is me in the clothes I wear five days a week, holding a sign Carolyn made).

I hope this all meets your approval! Make sure to tell your friends about this project, and send them to Kickstarter to SEE OUR PROMO VIDEO!

The next post will have pictures from the set and an interview between me and Carolyn Main, but we need three more new donors before I can post it, so tell your friends!
