The Door Between - a story about life and death

I always pictured vampire vision to be reddish yellow....i'm not sure why.

When it comes to vampires I consider myself a huge fan and something like an encyclopedia.

Throughout the years I came across 2 versions of the vampire myth that really shook my whole body up and down with excitement.

The first one was the books by Brian Lumley, 'The Necroscope'. It's probably what I belive to be the BEST origin scenario for the vampire myth. It portrays their behaviour, their nature, their powers....EVERYTHING in the most logical and interesting way that anyone else ever managed to do.

The second one was the film 'Night Watch' (Nochnoy Dozor) the first part of a Russian trilogy on vampires. AMAZING work! Incredible stuff, they wrote a great script and they used some really unique techniques on how to present vampires and their behaviour as well as their interaction with the world!!!
 
Hi all,

I am Stratos Filalithis, the lead actor (since we have no others), director (says ME John) and many other helpful things for all our projects!!! :)

Actually, I think that the whole filming process is extremely interesting, even though not as much as John himself who is a natural born film maker... That's why I was thrilled last year when we started our very first project using a borrowed miniDV camera. We have gone a long way since then and learned one or two things. I hope that all this will be shown in this and future projects.

The best thing is that we have a small team, with the addition of Santa's little helper (Barouir) and Miss X (that's my girl), so our future prospects seem good... :) Of course, nothing could be achieved without John who is the heart and soul of Cut 2 The Chase and has more commitment than all of us... :P

As for 'The Door Between', I am happy that you like these screenshots, I sure hope that you like the final outcome... Cheers!

Dang John, looks like your actor there is out of control!!! :grin:

Taking your director credit and talking smack! I also noted the "founding member" wording next to your production company. True or False?

Hey Stratos! Welcome to the boards. Looking forward to your film. I loved what I've seen.

Now you just need 99 more posts to be able to vote for your own film!!!

MwaaahMwaaaahMwaaaaahhhhhhhhhh

I'll just point him towards the lingothree/theatreguy scheme....

as for the founding member ...yes he is one of two, me being the other one
 
98 posts to vote for my own film... and counting! :P

We loved making this film. We had lots of laughs and there is a series of bloopers ready for the DVD Version... ;)

All the things I said about John are true. Even though we started filming together, he has all the motivation and arranges everything etc. We are good buddies and always end up laughing, even after our well-known fights during the preparation for our next shoot... (and of course his earlier comment about miss-x during filming... watch out John, there is a vampire coming after you tonight)!

Hey buddy, I had over 100 posts before I ever started my "networking" techniques.

And I'd like to think that I offered a little substance to all of those posts that I left.

Wow...I was just kidding!!!! There's been a lot of talk about these brandonisms, and networking techniques and I believed it was all part of joking and having a good time!!!! Seriously man I was just kidding!!!! You should know how highly I rate you and our conversations!!

Ooops! I guess you couldn't hear the jovial tone in my voice when I said that!

Sorry. Perhaps I should have covered it with smilies!!! :) :) :) :) :) :) :)
 
Yep smilies always help :D :D :D

I don't think it's a good idea to create tension inside a horrorfest forum, there are lots of people around with enough sick ideas already...wouldnt want them to start thinking about turning them into reality
 
it's already 5.34pm and I still dont have an idea about the time I'll be off work....so I dont know if I'll manage to do some editing tonight....I will have to do a lot of work for the office from my place during the weekend as well, monday will be a 24-hour at the office as well...so I am taking it easy....sitting back...trying to relax....don't know if I'll finish the movie on time...lol.....last night I put all the shots in context..tried to make a concrete and robust whole out of all our footage,so all that's left is applying the filters (which is a huge pain though as you liked what I did so far it gave me quite a boost in morale), I have to visit my brother next week to record the voice over with Stratos and discuss music and sounds (foley) and then I'll have to subtitle the damn thing not to mention export the 16:9 version....
 
I hear you, man! Lot's to do.... BUT YOU CAN DO IT!!!!!!!

Doing the same with my piece of... film right now. Putting it together and looking what shots I need to re-shoot or pick-up. Hopefully will get to color correction! As for a soundtrack... hmmmm.... yeah... right.

Good luck with all. Way to keep us all posted!

In my line of work you never know when the **** is gonna hit the fan so maybe I should install a premiere copy at work and work from here as well! i just cant sit without working on the movie...and most of the days I get back home very late (coz you have to keep up with your social life as well) and I sit in front of the pc and I just stare at the windows trying to roll a cigarette that keeps falling off of my hands...looool.....
 
I work as a pre-sales IT consultant for a company. We do web portals,web services and stuff, mainly focused on big projects for the public sector. We do LOTS of tenders (RFPs for those who are close to this kind of game) so our schedule can suddenly become tighter than you can possibly imagine.
 
That sounds better than flipping burgers. At least you are surrounded by technology.

I see you've changed your avatar. I need to get one like that with me working the camera. I like it!
 
This I need to share!!! So here we are at the office, trying to finish up this RFP, and since we re almost the only ones left on the floor, I put on some music, so I choose Highway To Hell, song starts, a colleague says 'Nice choice man' , 'Yeah' then all of a sudden HUGE THUNDERCLAP and all hell break loose outside!!!

Is this a sign or what? ;-)
 
well, after all... you are in Hell (according to your avatar)!!! Only seems appropriate.

Maybe the power will fail and then you can go home and work on your film!
