We're Still Alive FYI...

So, I know we've been gone for awhile, but we've got more coming your way, and I'm super excited to fill you all in on the new material that's under production at the moment. But I'm not going to let you in on our secrets yet~

Yeah, I know... I can be such a tease.

New Tools at Hand

Hopefully I can get permission to use my friends welding gun.
This will open up a whole new world for the Crimson Spade Brigade.
We'll use it in this movie for costumes and weapons and... oh I shouldn't say too much more.
I'll leave the rest up to your imagination~

New Horror Movie Planning!

Well I am now in Advanced Video class, which means that new equipment will provide for a better quality movie, and I get to discuss my interest in filmmaking with my peers and recruit actors! This is great news, and on top of all that, we are planning our first movie. It will be a horror movie, but not like the crappy ones we've done in the past, no. This one, with the new technology available to us and the experience I have under my belt now, this one will make your skin crawl rather than make you laugh.

I have a basic concept down, but that's about it. I don't have any storyboards yet, or any concept art; just a small concept in words which I developed a couple days ago.

Hopefully I can draw some rough storyboards and concept art in physics class. Just kidding, stay in school.

I'll be sure to keep you all posted!

Wish List

Okay, recently I have noticed that if I am to start making high-quality, big-name movies, I might need better equipment than what soccer moms use to record their daughters' birthday parties.

So what I have done is devised a list of items that would help me to achieve perfection. I know, I know "Perfection is all in the talent," but how can I bring out the best of that talent?
Well, by using the following, of course...
-The iMac G4 [$350]
-The Canon Gl2 [$700-$800 for camera, $1900-$2000 for all of the above]
Adobe After Effects CS3 Professional [$1000 new ($300-$500 used!)]
Final Cut Pro [$100-$300]

Armor... Done!

Well it appears that our first attempt at armor-making has come to a close! Actually it's been a couple weeks since the armor was finished, but I just haven't updated the Blogspot recently.

Go to the site and see all the completed pictures we've taken so far.
Here's a few samples:

New Armor Project!

We have been starting a new project since summer is in full gear now. Hopefully a Gears of War movie could be in the making with our new armor making project!

We will post some pictures here for you, but most of what you're looking for is on that page.

We hope you're excited for this project as we are!

Give us some feedback as well!


There was some major difficulties we had encountered while in the making of this movie.
First, we had bad equipment.
A bad camera with bad video and sound recording quality made things rough.
So the video was blurry,
but for the sound, we took out EVERYTHING, and put in our own, home-made sounds.
That's right; all the footsteps, clothing, breathing, birds, even most of the lines were recorded some time after the initial shooting.
Yes, the camera sucked that bad.

Well it's all over now, and I couldn't be any more happy with the finished product... unless it were shot with better equipment.
But aside from that, I love it. I believe that it is easily the best video we've ever shot.

"He Is Legend." Out Now. Check It.
