John Whitney tells the story on what his first day directing on Horrors of War was like. Managing a tank, a jeep, extras, costumed actors and two pages of dialogue in a single shot.


This is a series of WEB DOCS on the making of Horrors of War, a WWII action-horror-sci fi story coming soon. These documentaries are DVD-style tidbits showing the behind the scenes workings of a low budget indie film.

Yeah, that sounds like a movie set...These are great, keep them coming...I request a piece on the audio capturing and lighting design ;)...because I'm greedy.

Funnily enough I'm talking to the 2 DoP's about what they want to do their's on and one of them had some things to say about lighting design.

The next one on deck for this coming week is another INDIE FILM TIP on some editing tricks...

Any other requests or interests?

The docs are very professional. Like something you'd see on IFC... or maybe, you WILL see on IFC. ;)

Ditto.

These are fantastic not only cause they provide some NTS stuff, but they are well done.

I'd like to see one about the preproduction and the business plan you guys put together.

Poke

I hand't thought of that. We did do a business plan and a prospectus. I'm a huge advocate of filmmakers getting to know more about the "business" half of "movie business" so that's one I had not considered.

JoBlo.com (http://www.joblo.com/arrow/index.php?id=2770)Says some really great things about Horrors of War!

"Think SAVING PRIVATE RYAN meets RE-ANIMATOR meets DOG SOLDIERS, i.e.- a buttload of fun and good times! How cool is that? And after checking out the trailer, I'm sold- this one is gonna blow the other DVD completely away!"

How's THAT for a kick arse quote?

Did you guys chew the tank driver out for nearly screwing up the last shot? :)

Hey, the interview looked very professional and Mr Whitney sounds very professional. Nice job. Looking forward to seeing your film. I havnt followed all the comments. do you guys think it will ever show on the Sci-Fi channel?

We're hoping the SCI FI channel picks it up. They are on the top of our list. Fingers crossed.

I got my fingers crossed for you Sonny. please keep us updated.
