A couple of us at Romantic Child Studios are currently working on the feature film entitled “Dominant Gene”. The film is being produced by Cascadia Films and is slated for release in March 2010. Here are a few production stills from the third day of shooting.

We were out in the forests of Mission BC shooting in the woods.

Last month Damian Kuehn shot the short film “Conviction” in the studio. We prepped for 1 day and we shot for an entire day and night. You can see some of Damian’s work below. You can also see the behind the scenes footage here.

Another short film called “Bridge”

This was shot in 2 hours by Nihat Karakum, we spend more time setting up the camera and dolly than filming… I wanted to experiment and learn how to use the PANASONIC AJ-HDX900 DVCPRO HD CAMCORDER…

Behind the Scenes of the short film “Fix”

A couple of weeks ago Damian Kuehn shot his short film “Fix” in the studio. We stayed up until 3am the night before prepping the studio, blacking out the windows, testing lighting etc. The shoot the next day went incredibly smooth.

We did have 1 scare however, when 1 of the actors who was out on the fire escape (acting as a drug addict) shouted into Damian and I “uh guys…. there’s a cop cocking his shotgun below me”. The good news is they didn’t mistake our actor as a burglur and start firing at him.
