Ya Gotta Smile At The Camera Dear


Filming has begun on what I hope to be a short pilot ( if well received ). Im looking for examples of truly creepy footage that I can draw from. You know the type.... quick takes to a face with no eyes....long pull-in shot with a sudden twist at the end and the good 'ol stand by.... children dressed in black 1800's garb standing as if frozen in the winter woods. Remember the beast that moves from person to person using each body as a parasitical host? Just a huge negitive energy moving about amoung us. I want to make a film that people watch through their fingers....Smile, the camera is rolling my dear...

A light in the distance.


Drawing in first breath to subdue the light and encourage the shroud of night, a torch of unknown source or reason is seen in the distance floating as if upon the mist of the moors. The moon it is not, but the glow of a Banshee traveling towards a resting village nestled in the cool of midnight. Tonight a soul is to pass from all that is known to a world filled with ill-defined shadow-like mysteries. A place we all will visit in due time. For whom is this the night to be guided by the light that shows the path through a world we know only to abandoned those who follow into darkness upon reaching the eternal gathering? The glow... it grows brighter as it nears, for it is I and tonight I am to ride by the torch of the Banshee.

Roll Footage


As if we were on the set, I begin with "Roll Footage"
