Hello Cast and Crew of Resist!

This is Jason the production coordinator. I created this blog because Resist! has become such a big project and there have been so many people involved in one capacity or another throughout the course of nearly a year, it has been difficult to keep everyone up to date. So to begin, YES we are still diligently working on it! It has been a long and difficult journey with quite a few snags along the way but Cory and Kenny will finish all 8 episodes at some point! I will try and update this blog every couple of weeks or so. Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks again for being part of Resist!, we couldn't do it without you!

Looking For...


As you know, we are a pretty low-budget production. Most of the locations, props, talent, and a lot of other things used to make Resist! have all been donated and/or borrowed. (nothing stolen...yet) Most of my time working on this project is spent on the phone or sometimes in person begging for permission to shoot at a location or looking for deals on fake guns or costumes or something. I figured I should post some of the things we are looking for here. If you see something you may be able to help us with, let us know!

Locations:
Hospital Recovery Room (preferably one with a window in the door)
Underground Looking Hallway

Props:
Various Medical Equipment (heart monitors, stethoscopes, things you would find in a recovery room)
Large Empty Fire Extinguisher ( preferably hollowed out and not too heavy, I think the fire department will use them for demonstration or training purposes)
Large Metal Can (for bums to set a fire in, see picture)

Talent:
Make-Up Person (with horror/sci-fi prosthetics experience)

That's all I can think of right now. If you think you have a line on any of these things, let Cory, Kenny, or me know! I'm sure there is A LOT more that I am forgetting. I'll probably be updating this post quite a bit.

Resist! Behind The Magic! Production Stills

More to come!

Production Update 11/11/09

What's going on at the moment:
  • We are shooting some van chase scenes for episode 8 on the weekends. These are all outdoor scenes (obviously) in and around various Portland industrial areas. We have had to cancel a few shoots due to rain, but such is life in Portland.
  • We have a composer hard at work composing original scores for every episode! You can check out some of his work here.
  • We finally secured a news studio to shoot the episode 4 news anchor stuff! We will be shooting there hopefully very soon as well as the police interview. (with a real police officer! we spared no expense!)
  • And we are gearing up to shoot episode 7 "bumtown" scenes hopefully in the next month or so.
Oh yeah, and it's not totally confirmed, but there's a good chance we will be shooting the episode 8 hospital scenes as well as some of the hallway scenes in an old abandoned sanitarium! Creepy!
