"Off The Island" COMPLETED AND ONLINE NOW!!!!!!!!!
« on: September 07, 2006, 04:15:32 am »
RIGHT CLICK HERE AND SAVE TARGET AS FOR FULL MOVIE

I always like to share the projects that I work on with everyone here.  “Off The Island” is a short film based on the TV show ‘Lost’, however it takes place…well, off the island, and revolves around Chase Jackson, who’s searching for his brother, Scott Jackson (an actual character on ‘Lost’ from Season 1).

The film is actually getting a lot of internet buzz right now, which is great considering it’s still being shot.  Check out the production journal below to learn more about the film and check out some set pictures from the first few days of shooting.

…and I’ve thanked her about a billion times but again, thanks to Nikki (dancernl) for passing along the info to me a few months ago.  :)

(I hope its ok that I made this a separate thread from the TV show...I feel it'll get more hits this way, and actually help to promote the film a little better when people search for it...)

ahh....another weekend of shooting completed.  I only helped out Sunday though.  Things went well and the production journal was updated by teh director Jeff, with some pics of the days events.  Check out it.

also, we've got press!   The Bergen Record (newspaper in north jersey) has run a story on the fans of Lost and featured 'Off the Island'.  Bill, who wrote the story, came to set last week, took some pics, and even participated as an extra in the film....heres the article and a nice set pic...hey...who's the dude with the boom pole?  :p

ahhh...so today was the final day of filming for most of the actors, as well as myself...

Jeff is shooting one more scene on Saturday, but I'll be in MA and VT for the weekend.

I've had a blast working on the film and can't wait for it to be available for everyone to see.
