"Vampire Factory"
From preproduction, we had all agreed that with this particular film we
wanted to show that this solution not only helped the environment but gave jobs
to people in need of one and wanted to show that particular element in our film.
We ended up going with a script about a vampire who wants to switch jobs
from being in a lumber factory to a plastic factory. The entire crew unanimously agreed upon William Swisher to
be our main actor. Luckily, he was available and he was the perfect fit for the
role! Rachel (editor and PD) did some awesome makeup inspired by ‘Dark Shadows’
to make our main actor look like a vampire with some flare.
This film ended up being a two day shoot, the first day on location at our
mutual film friend, Blythe (Dan’s girlfriend)’s house and the second day in one
of the studio’s provided by Savannah College of Art and Design. Both days went super smoothly. We ended up finding out that Colin (part of sound team) new how to do makeup and that he had done theater in his undergrad. As the shoot began we started in Blythe's garage which we turned into a lumber factory and continued into her dining room as a champagne cocktail party! Oh, Movie Magic!
