A Whole New Level

Writers of the Storm LLC has recently taken  “Fox Hunt”, an original script from our vault, and has decided to move forward on the production of that story as a feature film. We have joined forces with AVA Video Productions (http://www.avavideoproductions.com/) a company with over thirty years’ experience in the video production field.

After completion of the script, the film has been cast, most of the crew have signed on, and some financing has been obtained. We should be starting our pre-production on the film starting in late January of 2012. With the addition of AVA, we are working on a whole new level of filming. The quality of the cameras, the expertise of their crew, along with our creative storytelling will make this not only the largest project we have undertaken, but also the most successful project we will have made to date.

In Memory Of: The Film

It is my pleasure to announce that after months of hard work our short film "In Memory Of" has been completed, and working copies of the film are being produced now to be sent to various film festivals around the nation. Even with our lack of advanced technology, we feel that the story holds true, and this film will be a success. We are also looking into creating a section on our site in the near future to feature this and other shorts we have produced.

Blue Square Sound

In my recent dealings with Blue Square Sound recording studio here in Indy, the feature "Pray for Dawn" came into our discussions. The sound artist seemed very interested in assisting us in finishing what sound we have to record, and scaling up the quality of what we do have. Sound has been an issue we have been dealing with for quite a while, and now we feel we have a good direction to travel.

Post Production Sound and Pick Up Shots

Voice over work has been completed and we're preparing for foley work to begin. In addition, as the weather turns from cold to warm, we'll be finishing up the pick-ups shots for the film. On the list is a death scene, some close-ups to flesh out a fight and the second half of a flash-back.

Pray For Dawn: Post Production Continues

Pray for Dawn has been taken into the hands of a professional video editor who will tweak any small issues we have had and a sound editor to assist in finalizing sound. We will be recording voice overs for the last few actors as well as finishing foley work.

The Pray For Dawn website has been up for a while now and the trailer has received great reviews from those who have seen it. We look forward to wrapping up this project and getting it out to all who have waited patiently to see the fruits of their work. Thanks again to all cast and crew who put their heart into this project. I feel you will be proud once you see the finished film.

Pray for Dawn The Website

We have now past our third month of post production and are seeing light at the end of the tunnel. With the video editing completed we have entered the sound editing phase, and though tedious it has been a wonderful experience watching our project bloom.

Now we feel it is time to give you all a quick look at what is to come. Our website, www.prayfordawnthemovie.com is up and running. We present behind the scenes galleries, as well as stills from the film, and info on the cast and crew. Our first teaser trailer is up now and available to stream or download in HD.

Our First Feature Film

Pray for Dawn was a script originally intended to give us a project through which we could learn the inner workings of film production. From storyboarding to location scouting, casting to film editing, we dove in head first and  learned through trial by fire.  With everything being said and done, we have come to a point where we feel we really have something here.

Pray For Dawn Film Wrap

After a grueling four months it looks as though WOTS's first feature film production, Pray for Dawn will finish shooting in the coming week. We will then proceed directly to the post production phase. I would like to thank the cast and crew for their time and effort. It was difficult after losing locations to weather and such, but you all pulled through, and made this an enjoyable experience. I cannot wait to finalize this feature so that I may begin our next project.
