Slightly OT - my feature film has just been picked up for distribution

[beeblebrox]

Hey guys, just a bit of side news.

While I work professionally as an animator and visual effects artist, I also love live-action filmmaking. My first feature film as a director, Lost Mission, has just been acquired for domestic and international distribution by Vanguard Cinema.

We should be released in the US in either March or April and internationally at a later date. I'm extremely stoked about the deal.

Here's the trailer for the film:

Is this your first feature length live action film? (as a director)

[beeblebrox]

Yup. I've made several short films but this the first feature length.

Congrats Beeblebrox!

[Sharvonique]

That's pretty neat!

It's direct-to-DVD, so wish me luck at the store shelf! ;)

Congratulations!

Best of luck! I just saw on your website that you recently picked up international rights as well!

Moser Brothers.... is that a new fad in Hollywood? Brothers as director teams?

[beeblebrox]

Thanks, Chaos. Yep, domestic and international. We're psyched!

is that a new fad in Hollywood? Brothers as director teams?
It was more of a novelty when we started our company. Less so now. I guess everyone is used to it at this point. Even the Coens are now taking co-directing credit. :)

But with Lost Mission, I was the sole director and my brother was an executive producer, and our company was one of two production companies involved.

Congrats! If I see it I'll try to pick it up.

Great news! How about a trailer or brief synopsis?

[beeblebrox]

Thanks, guys!

The trailer's at the top of the thread, but here it is again:

It's a pretty simple story. Five soldiers are on a routine training mission when they are hunted by a mysterious sniper.

I hope to see more films of yours on the shelf!
