PLEASE, for the love of Teh N00bs, PLEASE use a tripod for the shoot!

The last thing you want is crappy looking footage after all the work of finding a cool looking forest. To film a lightsaber fight in. peace

Thanks for that mate. Don't worry though, that is a must on my checklist. Anyways, (not surprisingly) I have found a third location amongst my property where (of course) we might shoot "Best Left Forgotten".










So as you can see, I'm running into a dilemma. So many nice locations to be used, only one to be picked. So my question to you community, is which of these three locations would you like to see "Best Left Forgotten" filmed at?

With the right lighting, I think that location could be pretty cool, like a dark, dead place...the only thing is, if you film it in the summer, I would assume that the trees will all have their leaves again, so the look and feel of the location is going to change, something you might want to consider.

Yeah, I know. That's why I'm asking the community which one would they prefer to see used.

What if the forest was green and alive everywhere except wherever the Sith are loitering? In that specific area it could all be dead.

Thank you all for your feedback. Soon we plan (and by 'we' I mean the production company) to have a site. I'll have more information soon. Stay tuned.

I'd just like to inform you all that Giant Gnome Digital has just started a 'blog'. So if you'd like to keep up with our progress (as we might not post that often here), check it out.

Heh, Broadview Heights, eh? I spent about 16 years of my life near Solon, so I know your area well. The moment I saw your pictures I felt like it was an Ohio forest.

Haven't updated you guys in a bit. Things are going well, in fact greater then I expected. Filming is still on schedule for this summer. Just to get you guys a little excited, I have a picture of our first complete prop.





/sigh

Three more to go...

I'd rethink the title if I were you.

'Best Left Forgotten' makes it too easy for the critics.

Really now? Then tell me, what is the storyline about? In all honesty, I think it's a perfect title. That is, for what I'm going for.

I have respect for your suggestion but I am going to leave it as it is.
