ANDYK Posted December 12, 2008 Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 hey everyone just a gentle nudge in the direction of my new horror trailer please check it out on youtube and feel free to leave (nice!) comments http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=BNM-sarhMu4 it was filmed mostly in warburton, just outside Lymm, so im sure that qualifies as local Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Posted December 12, 2008 Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 Nice comments on a gore fest! Whatever floats your boat I suppose - but not quite a 28 days or 28 weeks later! Recognised the venue! Did you get permission off the church? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indy Posted December 12, 2008 Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 I don't think he did get permission though i may be wrong? The Churches Conservation Trust who look after St werburghs old church are strict about the use of the church. I did some professional filming there about three weeks ago with the BBC and we had to get permission from the trust in London and prove we had at least ?3,000,000 of public liability insurance before we could even set up a camera and equipment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ANDYK Posted December 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 No, I didn't get permission didn't do any filming inside the grounds of the church, im very respectful like that, its just happened to be in the background when we were filming and thats crazy, that you have to get permission from LONDON to film at your local church, thats why most of us have to resort to guerilla filmmaking!!!

indy Posted December 12, 2008 Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 and that's why the church is protected by the Conservation Trust Andy, to make sure that it is conserved for the future. They have to be sure that if the church or grounds were damaged during any filming that insurance was in place, hence we needed insurance as we filmed in the grounds and inside the church too, and with the lighting rigs and sound equipment etc ...........

ANDYK Posted December 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 I know i appreciate the church needs to be protected, hence the insurance but like i said I didnt do any filming in the church or within the church grounds what was the film that you were doing in the church Indy?

Peter T Posted December 12, 2008 Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 Dracula eats the Romans??? Do ALL churches come under this Conservation? and if so, why doesn't it pay for repairs. Our Lady's on St. Mary St. is due to come down because of the cost of repairs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indy Posted December 12, 2008 Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 Warburton old church was built in 1187 .... so its under special protection and gets full maintenance as its an ancient monument....... What was I filming Andy, a short promotional film for the History channel, can't say much more about it at the moment ........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ANDYK Posted December 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 cool, well i'll keep an eye out for that and don't worry, i can keep a secret!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzy Posted December 12, 2008 Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 Hiya ANDYK .... Well I didn't like it one bit... it was rather creepy and gorey YEUCH ! But that's cos I am a complete whimp when it comes to horror films so I guess you must be on the right track Maybe better to try and film outside of local 'turf' next time so you wont get as much stick from some I very much doubt that you would have damaged church property with your filming. I've take loads of photo's of my local church over the years and even used my video camera and no-one has ever complained or asked me if I had public liability insurance Only down side with using a local area which is well recognised place is that people may feel a little more scared by what they see cos it looks familiar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ANDYK Posted December 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 Hi Dismayed thanks for the feedback, and sorry if it freaked you out a bit lol I think there is a lot to be said for filming in the local area, i know i didn't do any damage, and i wouldn't do any damage. But with the state of the british film industry, people need to encourage people to film in their local areas and get people involved. We had great fun making the trailer and everyone local seemed to be amused that we were making a "zombie" film. the only way we are going to see more british films being produced is by allowing filmmakers some slack and letting them get on with making them (obviously not if they are damaging property, but thats another matter) phew, i think i went into rant mode there!!! something even scarier than zombies Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

safeway56 Posted December 13, 2008 Report Share Posted December 13, 2008 Don't want to be pedantic but PREVUES ?? A little on the sloppy side for a would-be Spielberg. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ANDYK Posted December 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2008 its okay to be pedantic however.... the clip was taken from the start of a trailer for an american film, so I didnt spell it pre?view also pre?vue n. An advance showing, as of a movie or art exhibition, to which a selected audience is invited before public presentation begins. An advance viewing or exhibition, especially the presentation of several scenes advertising a forthcoming movie; a trailer. An introductory or preliminary message, sample, or overview; a foretaste. although im sure even Mr Spielberg makes mistakes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzy Posted December 14, 2008 Report Share Posted December 14, 2008 What was I filming Andy, a short promotional film for the History channel, can't say much more about it at the moment ........ Indie, how come you are always working on filming an 'exclusive' and can't say too much but we never seem to see them How long do they take and what ever happened to your final film of the Stockton Heath Primary School archaelogical dig with all it's exciting finds and possible secrets you were doing ???? Guess it was the same as is happening with the Earthworks full and concise archaelogical report.... it's still being edited Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sadako Posted January 16, 2009 Report Share Posted January 16, 2009 Hi Andy, Well done on the trailer. I know you spent a lot of time on the script. planning, casting, props and equipment and so on, and especially on the editing. Can't wait to see the full thing. It looks great! love the effects. Ignore anyone that has a bad thing to say about it. Like me, Fiming and editing is a passion of yours and I appreciate how much effort you put into your work, so it's never nice when people can't say anything positive. Keep doing what you love. Hope to see you soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mary Posted January 21, 2009 Report Share Posted January 21, 2009 I will agree with Sadako -- you did a good job and people do not appreciate how tough it is to do that whole thing, especially with very limited funds. Horror isn't my thing but what I saw was impressive. Oh and I double the keeping doing the thing you love! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ANDYK Posted January 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 I managed to avoid the cold, which was good!! ...and thanks for the comments Mary, much appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indy Posted January 23, 2009 Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 Dismayed, the reason why they don't appear although i am working on them is that i am contractually banned from revealing anything about them!!!! ( America and Canada) Production houses who invest a lot of time, effort and cash into these projects do not like to reveal anything before they finally are released to the public ...... (minimises the impact) Man in Black ( Mark Olly ) wouldn't dream of discussing them before they hit the screen. Congratulations to Mark on his latest new series on Sky which will be publicised soon. I have seen some of the trailers and they are pretty amazing... Mark if you read this all i can say is well done!!! You are putting yourself and Warrington firmly on the map. Sure we will meet up again in the future. Dismayed this is for you ........ Regarding Earthworks I am still awaiting the call !!! http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=ZB094cHX1dQ&feature=channel_page Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
