As is the case with all when you release a movie often the sales and distributors think they know best and release trailers that have been tampered with, artwork that doesn’t feel right. It’s their interpretation of the work. Sure. But here at Stronghold we like to do things a little differently. And create our own Official Artwork. Please find the latest incredible poster from for - from Director and featuring the incredible talents of so many wonderful - we think it’s pretty cool and hope you all agree. is about more than commercial decisions. It’s about art.

- when talking about how about some of their bedfellows; - now we don’t feature any trolls in the film as such, but we talk about the troll wars. We also see some carvings on various walls that depict the troll wars and so we came up with our versions of trolls to help with those designs and also to further our knowledge of the world. It’s a time after dinosaurs, but we thought it would be interesting to use dinosaurs as the starting point of the evolution of our version of trolls. Would love to bring these trolls to life at some point!

“Designing Orcs is a great subject for - it’s a very detailed process, from the pallor of the Orcish Skin to the to the shade of appropriate green. Hair style? Eyebrows? Tusks or not? Fangs? Jewellery? Tattoos? Jaw style? Eyes? We had a whole host of people work together on designing everything from Orcish eyes, to hair styles, to final designs like this. This Warshaman concept art was produced by one of our artists; and was the first full design we finished. The Warchief design came after this and we very much followed the choices we made here. The tusks were particularly tricky and we were advised by one of our Oscar winning friends to be wary of that route, as from a prosthetic standpoint they are hard to work with. He was right. But we battled through and personally I really like the aesthetic of them. They separated our Orcs from the likes of and and drew them a bit closer to the sort of Orcs I grew up loving; those in - the whole process of taking a piece of concept art through to finished application is wild. It’s a huge amount of work and decisions. 23mll explore that in a later post” Director

Casting Guardians in our movie that followed was all about finding actors who portrayed a sense of depth and history. Either as fresh faced recruits or hardened veterans. is always a difficult process for a film and there are some really interesting stories behind each and their attachment to the movie. Here are and - two wonderful actors who actually met our Director on the set of the movie - which led him to get them to audition for our movie, as he was so impressed with their performances. Both bring an intimidating presence to the Guardians in the capital. The movie runs concurrently to as a stand alone story.

Our latest movie is out now in the USA with and many other countries! Our little indie film isn’t about kings and heroes, but about the scum of Backwater Town and a small warparty of rogue Orcs.

There was very little rehearsal time when we were shooting and the director was keen to have experienced theatre actors bring the roles to life with an authenticity and believability, that weeks of rehearsal normally helps with. Luckily each actor worked hard inbetween scenes and takes to rehearse with the other cast members, which really helped unite them together and bring about the subtleties in their performances. Not least and - two incredible professionals, who were both dedicated to their craft throughout and brought incredible nuances to their performances. On a second viewing of you’ll pick up on lots of lovely touches between the two as their characters interact. What does one know and the other doesn’t? How does it guide their choices? Watch them closely. Their performances tell all… photo by

What’s this? Warchief? Some countries had it in cinemas? Now on digital everywhere? Orkai!!! Fun Fact: we had to do several screen tests to get the Orcs skin texture right on film. The process could take up to six hours to do all the SFX for an Orc.
