THE MARSCHER LORDS:Brotherhood or Death Promo in the Can!!! Just this past Tues we shot several theme-based vignettes that we’re cutting into a short promo film for the aforementioned production!!! A terrific cast of mates & new friends including RE Wilhelm III, Edwin H Bravo (who just recently shot an episode of The Comeback with Lisa Kudrow for HBO), Joe Sachem (one of the finest character actors around), Rita Green, who hails from Hollywood’s Golden Age where she was under contract to Universal Studios, Stephen Rollins, Aubreeanna Carroll, & Julian Dorame, who was a fantastic last-minute substitute from Sir Brick Price! He was found by the most wonderful woman  ...

To have a great film you’ve got to have a great story. Like Lennon-McCartney, the two go hand-in-hand: Mutiny on the Bounty, Gone With the Wind, Thirty Seconds Over Tokyo, Casablanca, The Hustler, Damn the Defiant, Lawrence of Arabia, Zulu, The Magnificent Seven (h/t to Akira Kurosawa), Lord Jim, The Great Escape, & The Wild Bunch , just to name a few (a very incomplete list to be sure!)  Anymore – too oft for comfort – stories seem to be tossed into the WC in favor of (or lack thereof compensated with) F/X. Don’t get us wrong: there’s nothing better than terrific F/X – what would Star Wars be without it (ok – basically a Western) but still with a great story!!! Sometimes great stories come in the form of the creator’s mind (as with Star Wars for example)...

When it rains, it pours!!! Now our very own R.E Wilhelm III has not one but two films to shoot this July: Director Mark W. Curran’s psychological thriller “The Abandoned Dead” & Mike Moutsatsos’ family saga “Barker Daniels“. Ahh, such is an actor’s life! Feast or Famine it is. Just one of those things (& sometimes a veritable Trip to the Moon on Gossamer Wings!). This past Friday was the Dances With Film Festival 2014@ the legendary Graumann’s Chinese Theatre in Hollywood. Mo Fitzgibbon & hubby Robert Walker premiered a new music video of Joanna Tepper, Save the Children. Take a bow – both of you!!! Definitely outclassed – by far – the other vids that were presented. Well done!!! Excellently produced, shot, & edited!!! Kudos!!! Remember Joanna is the offspring of a songwriting family, s...
