Do you need a trailer for your film? It’s the best calling card for that project you’ve worked so hard to bring to life. We are currently taking on new clients. Check out samples of our work and our indie friendly rates.
Filming has gotten underway for Until the Music Fades. 7 days down. 10 to go. Of course these 10 days are spread out over the next couple months. A lot of work but having a blast and the screen grabs are looking tremendous thanks to Michael Huntington.
Tammy and I at the Snake Alley Festival of Film in Burlington, Iowa with our film Lex Talionis.
Very happy to announce that our film, Lex Talionis, has been selected for the Iowa Independent Film Festival to be held in Mason City / Clear Lake Sept 7 - 9. Hope to see you there.
We are excited to announce that our short film Lex Talionis has been accepted to the Snake Alley Festival of Film in Burlington, Iowa. It will screen on Thu July 13 at the Capitol Theater during the 2pm block of films.
So much going on. As many of you know, Mike and I put the Cinematic Heartland podcast on a temporary hiatus while we work on our own creative projects. I’m currently working on post-production of our short film Lex Talionis, we are in pre-production on our feature film Until the Music Fades, and we have one more interview to wrap up for our documentary and then we’ll be in post with that as well. On top of all that, I am working on a horror novel, a children’s book, and a YA fantasy book series. And if you still haven’t heard enough from me, you can check out the latest episode of Jake Baker’s Clear Tinted Classics podcast where we discuss the mockumentary This is Spinal Tap. You can also see Mike, Frank, and I perform as a band again at the IMPA Awards on May 6 in Forest City. I’m not letting my health issues hold me back as challenging as that is right now and those issues definitely slow down the entire process but hopefully I will soon be feeling better.
Kevin’s trailer for my film, DEPLOYED, is put together so well. Kevin knows how to apply his skills to edit together your work in a way that really showcases your film and helps hook an audience. Kevin is also a generous collaborator and an overall good human to work with.

Kevin created the trailer for my short film Santa Baby. He absolutely understood the assignment because the tone, pacing, and sound mixing he did for the trailer was excellent. He also showed just enough of the film to build interest without giving away the entire story. His trailer led to a noticeable spike in viewers and interaction with Santa Baby. I'm very pleased with Kevin's work and will definitely be working with him again!

A film trailer is designed to not only promote your film, it is meant to capture the eyes, heart, and imagination of any potential viewer and draw them in. It leaves them saying "I must see this film!"

Best time to plan your film marketing strategy is well before one frame is even shot. When you are setting your budget, marketing dollars should be figured in and part of that marketing strategy should include a professionally edited trailer. There is no single better calling card for your film. It should capture the eyes, heart, and imagination of any potential viewer, leaving them saying “I must see this film!”
Contact me today and I can help you get a plan in place for your film’s trailer without breaking your film’s budget.
