You remember that one project we were telling you was going to be done about 2 years ago and then NEVER DID IT? Well it's actually getting done now! Salty Samurai Studios' own Mario McKellop and Sheldon Steere will be working to bring the vision of Greg Danger: Industrial Espionage to life... finally! We recently reworked the rough draft of the script and had editors and professional screenwriters go over it, giving their notes, and have what we are considering the tightest and funniest script we have done yet. We will be filming the pilot episode in April, after filming for Grace is done. This will hopefully be the largest Salty Samurai Studios project yet! Get ready for Danger! If you'd like to work on this amazing project, please send a message to saltysamuraistudios@gmail.com

Matt Cross and the Garage Boys are back! Salty Samurai Studios' own Sheldon Steere, along with Producer / Director Roth Rind, and Director of Photography Matt Cross will be working on the new K-57 Music Video "We Here to Party." During the summer, Matt Cross and Sheldon Steere filmed the music video "Hustla" for K-57, Mi$$ Ri$$, Rizwan the Akkie, and The Jacka. Editing is finally almost done, (look below for screenshots!) and K-57 liked it and has commissioned us to do the next project, "We Here to Party." We're very excited to work with K-57 again, and now that we'll have a budget to work with, this next music video looks like it will go off with a bang!

Salty Samurai Studios' own Sheldon Steere, along with Producer / Director Stephanie Emerson, and Producer / Director Roth Rind will be working together with the following: Mohammad Harirsaz as Sound Director, Kelly Miller as Sound Assistant Director, Christianna Gunn as 2nd Assistant Director, Amani Marie as Script Supervisor, Geva Whyte as Camera Assistant, Matt Cross as Key Gaffer, Boran Vukajlovic as Gaffer, Dan Lyons as Key Grip, Rich Hagedorn as Electrician, Stuart Rind as Special Effects Coordinator, Dylan Baker as Special Effects Assistant, Ashley Elieff as Costume Designer, Stacey Morrison as Makeup Artist, Katie Lanning as Set Dresser, and Guy Denues as the Licensed on-site EMT; starting this month, to bring to life the story of Grace, a short film that touches on the subjects of war and humanity, and the fine line between them.
Summary: "It's the Korean War and John, a United States soldier, finds himself trapped in a collapsed underground tunnel with a North Korean foot soldier, Dae-Hyun. What would you do if you were trapped with your worst enemy?"
The most amazing thing about this production is that it will be the first time we have worked with live explosions and squibs, and there will also need to be a fake tunnel set that has been rigged to collapse. All of this will make, for a very difficult shoot, but more importantly it should make for a very interesting film. Shooting is planned to begin in March, and I will give updates as the shooting progresses.

Salty Samurai Studios' own Sheldon Steere, along with Producer / Director Roth Rind, as well as Mohammad Harirsaz and Dan Lyons, filmed the live panel event for the Hollywood North Podcast today. The event showcased representatives from Cinequest, the 48 Hour Film Project, the Arab Film Festival, SF Indie Film Festival, SF International Film Festival, SF International Jewish Film Festival, and SF International Lesbian Gay Bisexual and Transgender Film Festival.
Hollywood North is Co-hosted by De Anza's Film & TV Department Chair Zaki Lisha and screenwriter and De Anza screenwriting instructor Barak Goldman, and is produced by De Anza film school students. It probes and explores all matters pertaining to the education and business of film, television, and other media. To listen to their podcasts, search for Hollywood North on iTunes.
The exciting thing about filming this event, was having 3 HD cameras linked to a monitor, where Director Roth Rind sat and communicated to everyone filming through Clear-Com microphones. This was our second attempt at filming a live stage performance, after filming the Rock on the Mount back in August, and overall the filming went very well. Having the Clear-Com system allowed all of the camera operators to communicate fluidly and simultaneously with each other and with Roth Rind who was watching and organizing from the monitors; which saved us from problems like duplicating shots with multiple cameras, and allowed us to get things like a wide and closeup on the interviewee as well as a reverse on the interviewer all at the same time with little to no hassle.
