Meeting some fascinating individuals with incredible experiences to share. Thus far we’ve met two “Mustangs”, had our First Lady Veteran (Coast Guard) who had a really funny story to tell about how she met her husband; a proud Marine Officer who fought in the storied battle of Hue City, South Vietnam during the Tet Offensive in January 1968; a Veteran of a Graves Registration unit (what you never hear about – the aftermath of war) who arrived to clean up after the first big battle in the Ira Drang Valley with the NVA in 1965 which was made into a feature film “We Were Soldiers” with Mel Gibson...

A Shot & A Story…

Category: Production Blog Comments: No comments

Hey All –

Been a long “sabbatical” with this pandemic but we’re still here moving that ball down the field. One thing that has popped up of note is that our own Robert E. Wilhelm has been placed “on avail” for two different shows – Amazon’s The Hunters & HBO’s Succession. Also being considered for a large part in a major feature; more on that as/if it develops.

In addition- on the historical front- a new series is developing itself in the form of A Shot & A Story, with Wilhelm providing Veterans a forum to share their experiences with the public at large. Too many World War II vets especially took their experiences with them to the grave. That was a generation that didn’t talk much, so – by doing this – we’re proud to provide them a forum if they so choose to utilize it.

Been a few months since the last post but we only post when there’s some actual news; it’s official – the premier episode of “Masters of Valor” (formerly “Masters of War” ) is now “in the can” & in post production!!!

These guys are absolute masters at what they do. Also thanks go out to the Richard I. Bong Veterans Historical Center of Superior, WI for their invaluable assistance in helping comple...

The Rebane Formula – Peace of Mind for the Feature Film Investor…

Peace of Mind for the Film Investor…

A post on the business side of things. The above words are not exactly familiar to too many Film Investors. However, as Independent Filmmakers we are of the opinion we should go as far as we possibly can to provide as much of this to our Investment Group as possible. What we have is – in a word – revolutionary and thanks go to Executive Producer Bill Rebane. Bill is a veritable encyclopedia of knowledge (don’t miss his Wikipedia page) learned through experience when it comes to making money via Independent Film. He wrote the book – literally. Let’s be honest – making money via motion pictures is a risky business. Always has been. Always will be. There’s no getting around that. Any type of venture capital enterprise contains certain inherent risks...

Hey All –

Bolts of Electricity through us and the projects!!!! Been away from blog posting too long but have been deep in the trenches doing the work that is Independent Film; when you’re an independent filmmaker, it’s all on YOU: writing/producing/production capital fundraising/etc. We were fortuitous to meet the venerable Bill Rebane who we’re mighty proud to have onboard as Executive Producer on SCORCHED EARTH:The Other Side of World War II. (Ck out the new website!!! Still under construction but we’re live!!!) If anyone knows independent film, it’s Bill Rebane, who has been a true pioneer in this industry as well as an Entrepreneur – this quote is from his Wikipedia Page

“Rebane is credited with the introduction of the first 360 degree (wrap around) motion picture process to the M...

BREAKING: ROBERT E. WILHELM Guests on Blog Ralk Radio!!!

Our very own Robert E. Wilhelm was accorded a wonderful opportunity to be a on-air guest on the Saturday Symposium of Blog Ralk Radio with hosts Gary Edwin Rumer & Scott Osborn talking the industry, acting, and motion pictures. You can listen here: http://www.blogtalkradio.com/contending4truthradio/2017/09/23/contending-for-truth-radio-presents-saturday-symposium-with-dan-and-gary

Sneaky Pete & Santa Steals Dogs?

Category: Production Blog Comments: No comments

Woah!!! Long overdue for a post here, but much has been happening. Deep in the weeds working on  making things happen. As all indie filmmakers know, you have to wear many, many hats while you’re bringing a project together. While still hip-deep in the machinations to launch SCORCHED EARTH:The Other Side of World War II off the ground, we’ve been acting in other projects.  Both Edwin H. Bravo & Robert E. Wilhelm have been rather busy as of late, Edwin has been busting it in several episodes of Sneaky Pete, and Wilhelm (new website link!) premiered in the AllDefDigital YouTube Red Series Pilot Snap! as well as the new Christmas family film Santa Stole Our Dog: A Merry Doggone Christmas helmed by the veteran Bryan Michael Stoller, where the masterful Edward Asner turns in a tour-de-force ...

“SCORCHED EARTH” Rising…

Category: Production Blog Comments: No comments

No – we haven’t vanished or been abducted by aliens (yet!)! No – just been deep in the trenches working on projects and putting others together, namely one SCORCHED EARTH:The Other Side of World War II feature film by name. Some real impressive advancements  as of late. It’s an ambitious project to be sure but then again, why play small ball? Life’s too short. All of us only have one go around on this earth, why not go for the gold? Let someone else settle for the bronze. As you can see, some impressive attachments already, there are some others we can’t divulge at this point but will do so when possible. Nailed down is a complete & prepared budget, vetted & well-seasoned production group, locale, reenactment groups, & armored vehicles...

July Sizzle….

Category: Production Blog Comments: No comments

Woah!!! How time gets away – far too long between blog posts!!! Our sincerest apologies but we’ve been going from one project to another without interruption. Since then, our very own Robert E. Wilhelm has appeared in several shorts as well as working with the legendary Russ Woody on a special performance of his new pilot Deleria. He’s also slated to shoot some pick-ups on his latest indie feature Candid Carmen & Co., directed by Noé Obregon Escobar. It’s a rollicking, comedy/drama about the pits and pratfalls of a street theatre group in L.A. Also stars Katy Bodenhamer,  Alejandra Morin,  Lissette Feliciano LeónJesse Pimentel, Jovanna Nicole, and Takaaki Hirakawa...
