Here is the first pencil sketch of Mojo from the upcoming web comic, “smalltown: Stories of a Suburb Gone Wrong”.
The artwork was created by Jacob Saariaho.
More coming soon.
Exile Movies will soon begin a web comic for the feature-film “smalltown“. The comic will chronicle the town before the events which take place in smalltown: The Movie. The comic, drawn by artist, Jacob Saariaho, will show stories featuring many different characters from the world of smalltown. Minor characters will be featured and the comic will help round out the world of smalltown and it’s inhabitants and give the audience a sense of the town and it’s history.
Stay tuned for the first few sketches.
Exile Movies has begun production on a new documentary following the life and theories of Darren Derwood, also known as “Conspiracy Boy”. Documentary filmmaker B. F. Frinke will follow Darren over the next year and discuss his theory of the “All-encompassing Conspiracy Theory”. You can read some of Darren’s thoughts about the world at www.conspiracyboy.com/blog
VJ Day was Exile Movies 48 Hour Film Project. It was originally titled “Made In Japan” and premiered at the Providence Rhode Island 48 Hour Film project in 2007. Made In Japan won “The Best Use of Rhode Island” and was included on the Best of Providence DVD.
VJ Day is a holiday still celebrated in Rhode Island. Only RI celebrates the holiday as most states find it incredibly inappropriate to celebrate the dropping of the H-bomb on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
This film was shot for the 48 Hour film project and had many problems during the shooting including but not limited to: burst lights, exploding microphones, drunken cast and crew members, and other problems one can expect when you shoot in an open bar in 100 degree weather. It is neither a great technical achievement nor a storytelling high, however, we worked hard on it and we should be able to watch it.
With no more further apology, I present to you…. VJ Day.
