An earthquake rocks the North East. A giant hurricane bears down on NJ as I type. It sounds like something out of a movie, but that's what this week's been like. But it's not all natural disaster type things going on. Last night, we had the wrap party for Red Scare at Hendrickson's in Bayonne.
It was a great time, celebrating the great work of the summer of 2011. Delicious food, great people, it made for a really fun night. Joey Mosca was gracious enough to run kareoke for us, after demanding that there be kareoke at the party =). Billy D. was able to bring three scenes from the movie on his iPad so the cast & crew could get an early look at the progress of the movie.
The incredibly awesome Elizabeth White designed and created another amazing cake for us. Last year she blew us away with her BGR cake, and this year she went above and beyond with our Red Scare cake. Check out the detail in the pictures below. She has a cake Rex Steel! Cake Vlad Sinisterski! The cake version of my American flag tie! Stills from the movie on the cake!!!! So awesome. I can't thank her enough, but I can keep trying.
It was a really good night. Moreso than anything else yet, this has felt like the closing of a chapter for Red Scare. Post continues, and there is still work to do, but this is the last official time that the cast and crew are going to meet all together until the screening. It's a bit bittersweet. I only wish I could've spent more time with each person at the party, because this is just such an amazing group of people to work with and be around. At last year's wrap party, the last thing I was thinking about was working on another project. Now, I can't wait to jump into something new, and bring some of these amazing people, old and new, along for the ride.
That is all for now. Enjoy the below pictures. And STAY SAFE this weekend. I don't want anything happening to you before you get to see Red Scare ;)
Stay tuned,
