PROJECTS IN THE WORKS:

The Interrogation (Will shoot Oct. 6)
This is a psychological drama - kind of "Sixth Sense"-esque.

The National Film Challenge (Will shoot Oct. 20)
We have no idea what this film will be, as we will not be writing
this film until the night before we shoot it. I know it sounds
crazy, but that's part of the rules of the competition. At this time
we are looking for people who are excited by the challenge who are
willing to be flexible and are available to work with us all day on
the 20th.

The Misadventures of Captain KickAss (Shooting begins early November)
We are currently developing a series of episodic comedic short films
featuring our namesake superhero - Captain KickAss. We will be
shooting 2-3 films a month for this series or webisodes, and will
need lots of
actors to fill various roles throughout the project. We are
currently planning on producing at least 18 films in all
