Red Scare: The Movie!: Red Scare Pitch Video Shoot

When we shot BGR, one of the first things we did was film a pitch video for indiegogo so that we could raise money. We hope to do that again for Red Scare, and so we shot a pitch video today.

One of my main goals for the pitch was to make something bigger and better than we did for BGR. I wanted more people, and something more creative. After all, we'd all grown on BGR. We should show that. What the video was going to be like eluded us, until after a meeting I had with Bobby (Lise). He left that meeting and sent me a draft of a pitch script. It was good... It was very good. I changed a few things, and added a few other things, and we had a script.

We picked out a great location, assembled the cast, largely made up of already cast members, and today was the day. And it was such a beautiful day... A little too beautiful, it turned out. People were all over our first location, so we had to find a new location. Thankfully, we did just that.

Sean Feuer, who will be the director of photography on Red Scare, shot the pitch... And he did an AMAZING job. He has such a great eye, it is a pleasure and kind of an honor to work with him. Joey is always great on sound. And the cast! Oh, the cast! Such phenomenal actors, I am so grateful that I get to work with them.

We had the already cast: Christina Garced, Loarina Gonzalez, Dan Gregory, Joey Mosca, Isaac Platizky, Tony Pineiro, Bobby Lise, Myron Covington, and myself. And we were joined by the amazing Jenna Kildosher, Blake Zawadzki, and Omar Mendoza.

We rushed against daylight, but the quality was not affected. The shoot went spectacularly, and you will soon see our pitch video... And hopefully, it may inspire you to want to donate.

In the meantime, here are some pictures from the shoot.
