MARCHING HOME

Three weeks after General Lee's surrender at Appomattox, a Union soldier travels west spreading news of the war's end. But can a war that tore a nation in two and pitted brother against brother really end so quickly?

The sad thing is, this shot didn't make the final cut.

There's something very NOT Civil War about this picture.

ZazaCast has joined the production as Sound Designer and part of the composing team. Looking forward to adding his expertise and collaboration to the project!
 
We wrapped production this past Saturday. Grabs above. I didn't intend to be finished filming this early in the fest cycle, but it just worked out that way. Everything came together fast and furious ... or maybe 2Fast 2Furious ... or maybe fast and furiouser ... I don't know.

Anyway, big thanks to my cast a crew for a job well done. Looking forward to spending a lot of time in post and putting everything together just right!
 
Your stills are great! It looks like you're the first team out of the gate with your shoot complete (we just finished ours).

I'm looking forward to seeing the film.
 
Thanks, Chris!

Just locked picture yesterday. Packaging up audio and reference film for Zaza to start music and sound mix.

Looking forward to The Spear. I'm getting a Lord of the Flies vide from the poster.

This is a different kind of BTS video...

 
Who knew Zaza's mad-skills included the claw hammer banjo? Wait until you see the film as a complete piece with his soundtrack. Incredible!

Thanks Zaza, for your contribution to this project. What everyone doesn't know is that shortly after filming Marching Home I became very ill and am going in for surgery before the fest begins. Zaza has picked up a ton of slack and has done work on this project that he didn't initially agree to because he reached out and carried me when I couldn't do it or was slow to accomplish it.
 
So awesome, Zaza. Really enjoyed it as a video too--that's just plain cool and inspiring to get a sense of your playing and creative process in the studio.
