Music added to The Christmas Mummy!

I just did the first pass on the soundtrack and everything seems to work so far. We still need to pinpoint a few spots but it sounds good. Some final dialog track mixing and re-recording are up next, followed by foley and sound f/x. Oh yeah, still have to shoot the opening scene....Otherwise right on schedule...rob michels, co-owner, Screaming Like Banshees productions...

Working on the theme for The Christmas Mummy.

Over the next few weeks we will begin to spot and compose the soundtrack for The Christmas Mummy. I have come up with several themes and will try to find the best one for this project. I am very excited about finally getting to see the edit with some music in it.  Stay tuned.....rob michels

Editing the Christmas Mummy.

I have been editing The Christmas Mummy for the last 10 days and its coming together nicely. I will be doing sound effects and foley this week and shooting some inserts and pick-up shots as well.  A new trailer is being cut too, so stay tuned.  I have already learned alot from this shoot after editing the material and we didn't do too many things wrong, nothing we can't fix on future productions. Progress is key to film making, and maybe we will have more help on future projects. Well i got to go back to it, and keep an eye out for the new trailer, hopefully i'll have it done today.   rob michels

Christmas Mummy production update.

We shot a great scene today, and after watching all the raw footage everything looks great! Well done to the cast and crew for another smooth running set. We added another death scene on the fly and it turned out pretty good. We shoot one more day next week and we are done with exteriors.Then looking to crank out the interiors in 2 more days and start planning the next project. Still tons of post-production to do on The Christmas Mummy which will begin taking shape over the next few months. stay tuned...

A few new Christmas Mummy stills!

Christmas Mummy Update.

     First of all, huge thanks to cast and crew at our christmas party massacre shoot on Jan. 21st 2011. It was a 15 hour day for the crew, we didn't know if anyone was going to show up, and we were doing the biggest scene on the first day! But we adapted to the situation and used what we had, even asking a couple on a dinner date if they could play 2 quick roles that we still needed to fill during the shoot, and they did! How many times have you been out to dinner and someone says "hey, they're making a horror movie in the basement, would you like to be in it?"    The cast was mostly friends and non-actors, mixed with a few  more experienced actors.  Don't underestimate yourself as an actor, with a little coaching through a scene, and with some repetition, most people can come close to what your looking for performance-wise.    For me though, it felt good to be making another movie, because you are creating something no-one has ever seen before and when it starts to come together in the edit and sound is added, thats when all the hard work pays off.  (to be continued...)...Rob Michels.

Looking for cast & crew

Are you a horror fan living in or around Madison Wisconsin? Would you like to make some scary movies with us this winter? We need people willing and able to show up and work with us on film shoots in November, December, and January, in front of the camera and behind the scenes; if you can work as part of a team and put in a good solid day's work for zero pay, there is most likely something we'd like your help with. You don't need to be available for the whole shoot, but the more time you can give us the better, get in touch. Loads of pre-production  work needs to get done before then too, if you want to pitch in, please get in touch.

We're also looking for locations - do you have an apartment or even a room we could borrow the use of for maybe 2 full days? How about a basement, business, or house? We don't need to make a mess, we just need to be left alone to do our thing for the day.
