Getting Back to Filming....

My daughters and I have been involved in an Independent movie for about the last year. We finish up filming this summer. It is a sci-fi thriller and sometimes quite scary...but its been alot of fun. The name of the movie is Giest. It is about a man who wakes up and finds himself in an empty asylum and not sure how he got there. While there he comes on some childrens spirits and he helps them to escape "The Butcher".

Kier and the director Eric.....I promise he is not as scary as he looks here....he is very talented and humorous

The Kirkbride building where we shot the movie.

A view from the back....can you believe they want to tear this historic building down...hopefully the efforts from this movie will keep it from happening.

In the tunnel

Kier between takes...we had some time so we took some pictures...love this one.

Lauren and Kier between takes

Lauren dead.

See she really isn't....she is really loving this movie...and the both have got the acting bug.

I just love this shot of Lauren

Getting ready to shoot Kier's scene. They are discussing how it will go down.

I know it is a fun way to spend summer vacation. We have alot of fun doing it and the people we work with are awesome. I will keep you posted on release dates and more pics as we finish filming.

 

Merry Christmas....the day after and the Community Pickle Jar!!

Sorry I haven't written in awhile....but I'm back at it now.  I want to add my recipes and photos along with my crazy family life....it isn't all bad...its actually a lot of fun. I hope you had a fantastic Christmas. I know I did even with all the driving in the last three days. I had a wonderful day with my youngest son yesterday and my other five members of my family the day before. My oldest daughter and son are quite the tricksters. You never know what's going to happen at Christmas time. This year was ULTIMATE!!!
Lauren was going to get Jordan this year good.  My son Jordan love's pickles and not just any pickle. He loves Milwakee Pickles so he gets a jar for Christmas. (kind of a family joke) This year Lauren is going to get him good...she emptied out a jar filled it half full with Mountain Dew and garlic. Then she wrapped it up. On the way down to Jordan's house he calls me and tells me "I'm giving Lauren and empty milk jug for Christmas." I started laughing and right away Lauren says "Ok, whats he doing to me..." Anyway we are opening gifts and they get to the "prank" gifts. Lauren opened her milk jug and hugged it and said it was her favoritest gift of all time. Then Jordan opened his pickle jar and read's the note Lauren left for him. It said "The pickles were good, but me being the saint I am left you the pickle juice. Sincerely, Lauren. He opened the jar and took a drink.....and ...."It's Mountain Dew!!!!". Gotta love it!! She got him hook, line, and sinker....then she says...."Looks like I won this year!!!"
Gotta love Family. I will post the video when as soon as I can. Hope your holidays are going well.
Talk soon,
Kris
