Update

Work continues on my first feature film, Eternal Kiss, which has been delayed because my attention has been focused on Ghost Cases. However, as post-production on Ghost Cases is now winding down, I've turned my attention to Eternal Kiss again, and the film will be done by mid-January of 2010.

This video shows some clips of the wonderful actresses I got to work with on the film.

Deleted Scene 1

This is a rough assembly of a scene that was shot but has been deleted from the upcoming feature film Eternal Kiss. That's David Connellan as Oliver, Sandy MacLean as Dean, and Amy Kerr as Emily.

Production Team: Bill Niven - Executive Producer

I'm happy to announce that my good friend Bill Niven is on board as the Executive Producer for Eternal Kiss.

My first job in the film and television industry was as a consultant with Salter Street Films back when Bill was the Vice-President of Development there - his office was just down the hall from mine.

Since then we've served on the boards of various industry groups and committees together, and talked about working together on a project, but nothing has ever presented itself... until now!

Welcome aboard, Bill!

Thanks Film NS!

We signed our equity investment contract with Film NS today - they are a significant partner in the production of Eternal Kiss, and it would not be possible to make the film without them.

Many thanks to Film NS CEO Ann MacKenzie for being a strong supporter of both the film and our company, to the Board of Directors at Film NS for approving our application for funding back in May, and to Director of Business & Legal Affairs Linda Wood for getting the contract done and guiding us through the paperwork.

Film and television production in Nova Scotia wouldn't exist without Film NS, and the great people who work there. I began my career with Film NS (back then it was known as the Nova Scotia Film Development Corporation), and they have supported Redstar Films through our past nine years of business. I look forward to having them down to Shelburne for a set visit - the least I can do is introduce them to the vampires!

Fielding is a Robot??

Well, not quite... but Christina Cuffari (left, above), who will be playing Staphanie Fielding in Eternal Kiss in just a couple of weeks, is currently performing at the 2008 Boulder International Fringe Festival as Jane in the sci-fi mystery "Doing Time", which I co-wrote with my good friend Mac Tonnies, an American author.

I'm out in Boulder "directing" the play right now - I put "directing" in quotation marks because when you have actors as talented and hard-working as Christina and her co-star, Annie Briggs (right, above), there isn't a whole lot for a director to do once the play starts but sit back and watch the magic unfold!

Storyboards

Here are a couple of panels from the storyboards, which are being done over the next week or two.


We start production on September 10th.

Meet... Holly Stevens

Holly Stevens, who will be playing Sophie Manners' in Eternal Kiss, has been acting all her life, whether it be on set or stage. However, it wasn’t until she graduated from Acadia University in 2005 in the sciences that she decided to really pursue a career as a film actor. With a biology degree under her belt she headed off to Halifax, where she quickly found herself involved in some large budget features as well as numerous student films.

Since that moment Holly has never looked back. She has been involved in several independent features such as Waiting for the Apocalypse and Random, and numerous shorts including the role of Bee on Parker Porkham: Supernatural Detective and the lead role Gillian on The Were Jerk. To date, her favourite character was as an aristocratic lady on several book trailers for Julianne Maclean’s romance novels titled In My Wildest Fantasies and most recently The Mistress Diaries.
