Road to Zombie Mayhem (Locations,locations,locations)


So one of the first major humps on our road to zombie mayhem has come about. Last week we lost our primary location, which is the old farmhouse.....yeah, what a bummer. So the team has been on the hunt looking for another location. Let me tell you, you can make a movie out of location scouting alone. You find the creepiest places and people out there. At least it's food for thought and ideas though. So Jesus Sifuentes (2nd AD) and I were out today driving out in the country and found a possible locale. It may need some work but it is an option. The place had horror film written all over it...an then my car battery died....oh, and then it started to rain. Gotta love these moments. So, after taking pictures of the place we decided to head out. So we push started the car(standard), and headed back home completely soaked. Anyhoooo, here is a picture of the location.

Webisode Launch for The Killing Fields

Today we shot the first webisode to help promote the film. These webisodes, which are really 30-40 second clips will be a culmination of mini stories that surround the story of The Killing Fields. We will continue to shoot a series of these clips leading up to the release of the film. We had the pleasure of having Shelly Miles of WOAI and San Antonio Living to participate in KF Webisode 1. She played the role of an anchor woman who gets attacked and I have to say she did it like a pro...I wonder why. The webisode is featured on youtube and will be linked at www.killingfields.com as well. Stay tuned for more to come!!

Website make-over

Hey everyone!! So we have just updated the "Killing Fields" website and it is looking great! Thanks to our publicist and friend John Frazee, half man, half machine. All the links are available on the site, and also included is a link to our newsletter. We will have media downloads like wallpapers, screenshots, and behind the scenes video up soon.

This week we will begin a small video campaign of video teasers. They are not featured in the film but definitely inspired by it.
