Shot (ironically and quite fittingly) on the RED.

The visual reminder for me that actors go THAT way.

[AJ Brooks]

Sept 8th: Met with makeup/fx team, worked out a few sketches for how we will create "the wolf".
Sept 9th: Cast has been confirmed. Welcome Serah and Jesse!
Sept 10th: Scouted location with the brilliant DP. Worked out a few shots. Mental note: always find people to work with who are more talented than you.
Sept 14th: Fabric for the iconic RED HOOD obtained from the lovely ladies at Fabric Depot. They loved it when I told them what I was using it for.

Shot Sept 25th-26th.

Awesome. I'm all for fairy tale re-tellings! Can't wait.

[ZazaCast]

Excellent concept, can't wait to see how this develops. Welcome back!

[Christian Halberg]

This sounds VERY interesting.
I look forward to seeing more.

[AJ Brooks]

Thanks for the comments!

Scouted the location today with the talented DP Ryan Walters.

Spooky woods are in the works!

[Shawn Philip Nelson]

[Rodney V. Smith]

what else would he shoot "Red and the Wolf"on? Fitting that RED shoots Red. And she'd better be a red-head or I'll be pissed.
