It’s my great pleasure to announce The Last Hurrah has signed distribution. I’ll have more information in early 2010, but in the meantime we’ve been busy with deliverables and getting materials squared away for the DVD.
It’s been an amazing journey. From three weeks of pre-production, to three weeks of filming, to a year of post-production, [...]

Complete with fresh titles, I think we’ve finally got the movie we can send to festivals. Now it’s time to take a well-earned [...]

After bouncing around through several mixers, we are finally lucky enough to be working with the wonderful Corey Eccles on a state of the art dub stage. She is bringing our sound up to a level of quality I didn’t [...]
