Pre-production for The Van Zandt Shakedown is still slated to begin on Monday, November 5, 2007. Also, Fifth Floor plans to shoot the film on the Red One camera system. Links regarding the VZS project have been changed from internally on this site, to it’s own site at www.thevanzandtshakedown.com. As of now, the page is parked, but look for a fully functional site to be up by the end of the year, or near the beginning of production on the film.

The final DVD artwork for Leaving Town looks to be completed soon. Fifth Floor had to change artists which has inevitably delayed the release of the short film on DVD. Also, September 14th is the notification date from the Hell’s Half Mile Film Fest, where Leaving Town was submitted a couple months ago. Only two more submissions to film fests are on the horizon, the Lone Star Int. Film Fest and the Orlando Film Fest.

Storyboards for The Van Zandt Shakedown are now being created. As the process progresses, select boards will be available here on the Back Stage section. They look to be completed somewhere around November.
