“DAWNING” by Gregg Holtgrewe has been one of our favorite projects to-date and it’s looking like THEY will continue to be more and more involve with it, which we’re very excited about.
The poster series we created for the film are getting some love over at the site “Oh The Horror“, so we thought we’d write about them a little bit.
After a long, grueling shoot in the woods & a very hot, small cabin the filmmakers, cast and I rushed over to Matt Blum’s studio before their flights would take them out of town. Matt is a fantastic photographer, a former studio-neighbor, and a friend of ours & we were proud to work with him on it. After living on set and sweating together for days and days, I felt I understood the complex honesty of the film and this was one of the few times where my vision was 100% clear before we began and the results were exactly what I wanted. Each shot is recreating the moments in the film when each character is realizing the cause of all the horror, which means that the actors had to perform once again – even if it was only for 1 frame. Everyone was a pro and we knocked out the photos just in time.
“DAWNING” has toured some festivals and received many accolades thus far. Now they are coming back around armed with a new cut of the movie and some other production refinements. We look forward to their much deserved success. It won’t be long until we screen print these posters and when we do we’ll be sure to let you know.
