IndieMemphis a Success

Just back from Memphis, where Neil and I were invited to host a panel on fundraising for independent filmmakers. We were joined on the panel by Bob Compton (venture capitalist and producer of the documentary Two Million Minutes). The panel was moderated by Les Edwards of IndieMemphis.

We met a lot of great filmmakers in Memphis (including John Sayles), and had a very good time at the festival, where we were also invited to show a rough cut of our film.

We were also only the second movie in IndieMemphis history to sell out -- A few people even sat in the aisles, and another 50 were turned away at the door!

I'm hoping to get pics back from the festival, but in the interim, here are a couple that were taken of the panel and the preview.

Post Production Update for Sept. 13


Good news on the post-production front -- We now have ALL of our ADR complete. If you can't bring Mohamad to the mountain ... you go to Memphis to record your last actor's dialogue.

Neil and I met Ralph Hatley (the sheriff) at Young Avenue Sound in Memphis, where Kevin Cubbins (seated in photo above) helped us record his audio.

We are now within weeks of having a final mix on our film, which is great news, and prepares us for our World Premiere next month. Stay tuned for exciting details on our premiere and additional screenings in the coming months.

We are making some final tweaks to the video and finalizing our sound design and lining everything up to be on the mix stage in LA by the end of the month.
