Countdown to THE MARSCHER LORDS:Brotherhood or Death Going Active…

…on Indiegogo.com is January 15, 2014. This is where we hope to raise the necessary $$ for production. Please tell all your friends, family, people you know, people you used to know, people you may know, people you don’t know, people who you don’t want to know, & people who you certainly – in all circumstances – definitely do not know (whew – that cover it?). Today ads began running on Facebook in the U.S., UK, & Germany.  Oh, to be in deep pockets when production time is near ;<). But we’re not – at least not yet – not till we get this one under our belt. THE MARSCHER LORDS:Brotherhood or Death will establish QuarterDeck Production Corp. & the brand...

On Location: USS Enterprise CV-6 Hangar at Planes of Fame Air Museum

1/2 IN the Can…

Thanks to Jerry Wilkins & all the staff out at Planes of Fame Air Museum in Chino, CA!!! A wondrous shoot that actually didn’t take all that long (Getting IT in the Can PDQ!)  Colonel Reynolds was first up on slate (or is that the chopping block?), relating his experiences in Iraq where he spent a good amount of time in the “Green Zone” under rocket & mortar attack. Particularly harrowing were his tales of being stalled in a supply column outside of Fallujah and the time two of his charges become disoriented while driving outside the “Green Zone” and were – thankfully – able to be coached back to safe haven before any trouble started...

Time for New Blood & Fresh Concepts

Masters of War: Soldiers of Distinction One She

Touched on “me too-ism” a bit in the last post, an affliction that – unfortunately – afflicts the masses. Unsurprising this, for when an idea shows itself to be a success it invariably invites imitation. However, old parables can be turned on their heads in such a way that they reinvent themselves. It’s been noted in the media that television writing has surpassed that of films, a point that certainly has merit , however by turning old parables on their heads you wind up with a result like Fox’s new Monday night series Sleepy Hollow.  Well written, well acted, enormously entertaining to watch and completely unpredictable, it melds an old parable with that of the Apocalypse and the Coming of the End Times...

Well, the momentum continues to build!!! The unique situation surrounding this project – and all involved with it – has piqued press interest. Below is a screenshot of the actual article. Can’t post the link here but it can be viewed over @ www.valleynewsgroup.com on page 7. In reality this project has taken on a life of its own (Serendipity, n’est pas?) Uhh…maybe more Providence from where I’m sittin’. But either way it’s a major shot in the arm. Make sure you check out our Facebook page and give us a “like” [icon icon=icon-smile size=14px color=#000 ] but – most importantly – don’t forget to support us on kickstarter.com!!!

THE MARSCHER LORDS:Brotherhood or Death is the story of two brothers caught in the maelstrom of the Barbarian Invasions of Europe during the 13th Century. Maxim von Marscher and his adopted brother Petrus meet for the first time in several years. Maxim – as a member of the Teutonic Order – has been away at war while Petrus has expanded his Nobility in the land of his brothers birth, becoming a very high, respected, and influential Lord. Maxim informs his brother that the Barbarian Hordes quickly approach and that haste must be made to get the innocent and women and children out of harm’s way; not to do so is tantamount to a death sentence. However Petrus’s main concern is that of the landed estates and their contents and how best to secure their property from the advancing enemy...
