This is the return trip to continue filming on August 9, 10 and 11th 2002.
Based out of North Carolina, this is the professionally made Fan Film called "Sins of the Jedi" Believe me, once you see the work going into this, you will be amazed. The people working on this film, although not making a profit from it, are actual professionals who work in the film industry, with their special effects shop. Many have worked on many different movies from The Last of the Mohicans to Home Alone, to The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. This time we went right to the lot of Screen Gems Studios -- (What is Screen Gems? Movie studio, ie. Dawson's Creek is filmed at Screen Gems) and we filmed on site (in the backwoods behind the studio)
And this time, everyone got a chance to appear on film. I was even permitted to have a Squib rigged up on my chest by Will for a death sequence as a biker scout. Very cool, and thank you to the Special Effects/Stunt Crew (Will Purcel, Dave Hill, John Copeman, Dillon (Patty) ? and Dino Muccio) for allowing me to do this and thank you to Dino for helping me out. =D There were a lot of explosions and interesting things going on in this shoot. Everyone had a lot of fun.
We ate lunch on the lot, and then on Saturday night, everyone had a party at a local "Dinner Movie Theatre" to watch some rough cuts of the film and then watch Attack of the clones while eating dinner. It was definitely a blast!
Unfortunately, I have been asked not to publish pictures of the shoot until the movie is finally premiered. The photos do give away a lot of the cool stuff going on, so it is a fair request. I'll post them the minute I am able to. In the mean time feel free to visit their website http://www.sinsofthejedi.com
