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 León, Jesse Pimentel, Jovanna Nicole, and Takaaki Hirakawa...

Whoa! – What happened to Summer 2015!!!??? Boy that went lighting fast!!! We’re way overdue for a blog post and things are taking off so here we go…

Ladies & Gentlemen, we live in exciting times, to wit:

Big – B-I-G NEWS : THE MARSCHER LORDS:Brotherhood or Death is now a full length feature film!!! New Executive Producer came onboard who absolutely LOVES the entire concept as well as the script and sees it as a full length feature film instead of a short (well, in the interests of full disclosure so did we!!!). Dearest thanks go to Project Manager Adela Taylor for putting together the Project Book to that made it – as it is – eminently unique and ultimately unforgettable!!! Add to this we proudly announce the addition of our cast member – Yul Spencer – AKA “KOOL YUL” – to the production.

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...

ReGroup/ReLoad/Relaunch!!!

Well, the campaign on Indiegogo expired without us reaching out target goal of $70,000 for the production of THE MARSCHER LORDS:Brotherhood or Death. We’ll fall on our swords since – obviously – there’s still some things/nuances we’re not doing/aware of re: crowdfunding. There’s a big, still-evolving learning curve on it and obviously our blade isn’t sharp enough yet to cut through the vast swathe of crowdfunding projects listed on the various crowdfunding sites. That’s ok. We’re all about moving  forward and learning as we go. The time the project was active was not wasted, we made many more contacts & connections and were/still are able to turn more people on to the project. Wonder if we were doing a zombie project if we’d’ve done better $$ wise? :<D

In Truth,...

FV ‘Harbinger Down’ Steams Back into Port Amid Sad News…

News came this a.m. that we’ve lost Harold Ramis, the terrific geeky-chic actor & director who brought the world such gems as CaddyShack (starring friend of the site & all-around terrrific acting teacher Scott Colomby), Groundhog Day, & Ghostbusters. Came out of Second City in Chicago, which is a terrific training ground for sketch comedy actors. A late friend of ours – Frank Payne – was also an alumni. Scott always spoke very highly of him and you can see his wit in his interviews, especially here on the “Quotability of Caddyshack”.  The world will miss your unique ability to make us laugh and bring zany comedy to the screen Mr. Ramis. It seems at only 69, you have a lot of good years left in you.

‘It’s Not Just a Movie, but a Movement…’

Chivalry. Honor. Duty. Gallantry.

Those words may be a bit foreign to some in today’s modern, fast-paced, teckie-type world, but to knights of the Teutonic Order, Knights Templar, & the Livonian Order, they were sacred words by which to live and die. Die schwerpunkt, or “point of main effort”, was to protect the what was considered at the time defenseless (see below) making the pilgrimage to the Holy Land. It was for this that they were founded. The Teutonic Order’s castle still stands today at Acre, on the peninsula in the Gulf of Haifa. Amazing, since it’s been fought over and around about six times since the First Crusade in 1104.

Production Notes…

A word here on how production of THE MARSCHER LORDS:Brotherhood or Death will go and what we’re looking to accomplish with it. As it is a period piece – set in Europe (specifically the northern area of Germany/Prussia ) in the 13th Century – we had to find an area that (on the West Coast of California) – could credibly pass for that. Credibility (i.e. believability) is a big thing with us. Since there was much action in the Prussian region and along the Baltic Coast during the time of the Barbarian Invasions with the Teutonic Knights putting down uprisings of the pagans who lived in Prussia, the coast seemed like a natural fit. However, we needed to find an area that could pass for the Baltic Coast...

THE MARSCHER LORDS:Brotherhood or Death T-Shirts Are Here!!!

Of course we had to design a shirt!!! How could we not? With the uniqueness of this production and all those associated with it, we had to come up with a simple – yet smooth & cool-looking – design, something that would make a statement about the production & announce it at the same time. The Ambassadors of Goodwill by Special Arrangement have already been supplied with a small number to give out to their closest relatives & friends. In short, to those the Ambassadors feel will spread the word about this production & what it’s about thereby (hopefully) kindling more interest in it and – ergo – more pledges on the Indiegogo site. We’ve got a ways to go folks, now is not the time to wait. NOW IS THE TIME FOR ACTION!!!! As we’ve bee...
