BRAD ARNOLD as Brian and ROY SNOW as Darryl Kitchen notice something suspicious in SERVE AND PROTECT

We've wrapped on production!! With a huge effort from those involved we have managed to get a four day shoot squeezed into 2 two and a half days - with no sacrifice on quality I might add. You may want to know the time line until you get to see a finished product, well here is what we're intending

MARCH - Assemble edit and sync location sound
APRIL - Full edit, re-edit. Minor After Effects additions
MAY - Score, Additional dialogue recording, Color grading, Sound recording, Titles

And then we submit to festivals and hope for the best.

Check out the FACEBOOK page for lots more pics from set.

We also have a new Chasing Time logo layout. I love the look of the wind swept tree and will eventually make it part of the animated logo I'm (slowly) designing. The photo was taken in
Bodega 'The Birds" Bay, Northern California.

Great news for Adam Harvey's short film "Play Dead".  The 2012 black-comedy/thriller produced by Chasing Time Productions has been officially selected, and will have it World Premiere screening at the 2013 Maryland International Film Festival.

The festival is in its second year and is the first East Coast festival for Chasing Time Productions


Ex-Hamilton film maker Michelle Savil has just picked up the Best Short Film award at the 2013 SXSW festival in Austin, TX! 

Outstanding!!

It's been a good week for us here at Chasing Time. As you may or may not know, Pride of Caldwell  has just been accepted to the 2013 High Desert Shorts International Film Festival. This will be the second film we have had at the HDSIFF, with Lily White screening In Competition in 2012. The festival is run by a great bunch of dedicated peolpe who love cinema and it should be considered for any festival submissions list you may be compilling. Great people, great hospitality, great food, great festival!

We have locked in dates for principle photography on To Serve and Protect. Three to four days are planned in March around the weekend of the 16th. Scott and I have a bit of early ground work to do before rallying the crew to begin sourcing materials and building props and all the good stuff that creative folk love to do (mostly). We'll be shooting with the Red Scarlet and various Zeiss Primes, but we will most certainly be using the Angenieux Cinema Lens you see below...

Death Sprint in Terror Canyon has hit 5700 views in a little over a two weeks! Loving the good feedback from those of you who enjoyed the film. The forum banter - especially the reminiscing of your childhood model car-building and destroying said built model cars is gold!

Thanks again for all you support, we honestly couldn't do it without you. Until next time,

It's an absolute delight when people connect with your work. Thanks to the good folks at the premier hot roddin' website - Jalopy Journal for blogging about Death Sprint! You guys are awesome and the digi-short is getting a ton of views because of you. Muchas Gracias Amigos!

If you haven't seen it and you want to, They No Longer Sleep Alone is now streaming right here on this very site!  Head to the TNLSA page under the Films tab and have a watch.

We made this film on a crazy small budget and I think the results are great. We have come a long way from these early films but it's good to look back and take pride in some great moments (and some not so great) and appreciate that it's all about the curve of learning - and a million hours in the edit suite!

Darryl gives it a big thumbs up!

Great news for our short film!

Pride of Caldwell will be screening in competition at the 2013 Bloody Hero International Film Festival in Phoenix, Arizona. We couldn't be happier as this is a great festival and perfectly suited to let Darryl Kitchen shine.

Thank you to all that were involved in the making of our little movie, and long may it continue to gather FF selections!

If you're in the area, the festival is held on February 8, 9 and 10 at the Phoenix Center for the Arts, 202 North 3rd Street (the east end of Margaret Hance Park).

The PLAY DEAD page has been added and includes the trailer for the movie directed by Adam Harvey and produced by us here at CTP. No denying that this was a tough shoot - long, dark, freezing cold nights. An epic effort from all involved and we think a pretty decent film with a good dose of  black humor. Click on the "films" tab in the menu bar to see more.

Another new addition to the site is the page for our miniature drag racing short film "DEATH SPRINT". It was an incredibly fun project to shoot, so be expecting a lot more of this type of film over the course of 2013. Thanks so much to Pete Dawson and Dan Inglis for there expertise here. Again, check out the page under the "films" tab in the menu bar.

cheers!
