Making Magic Happen at LRF
The Latest Update from Lucky Rabbit Films ... Love It People
We recently premiered our latest video Austin Bound for Kalu James, at his birthday performance in downtown Austin. Kalu is a Nigerian-born singer / songwriter, who has been in Austin for several years. He is really starting to create a buzz around Texas and has started to think about touring the country. We had a great time working with Kalu on the video and he has become a close friend of ours. Please check out the video on our home page and check out Kalu at www.kalujames.com.
Earlier this week we finished up our music video shoot for the song Leave Your Coat On by Jacqui Marland. She is a very talented singer / songwriter who has so much to look forward to in her future. Her soul / blues sound stems from a few of her influences like Tina Turner, Aretha Franklin and Ruth Brown. She was a blast to work with and she became quite the little actress when it was time for lights, camera and action. Her video will be up soon on our website, but please check out Jacqui at www.jacquimarland.com.
Over the course of the next month we will be shooting two more music videos to add to our arsenal. The first is for the very talented band Blowing Trees out of San Antonio. They have attracted a lot of attention with their rock / pop sound and have been featured in several magazines and radio spots. The video for Goblins will be marketed through MTVU and Fuse by their management team and record label. We shoot at the end of the month, so check back soon for more info. Until then please go to www.blowingtreesmusic.com.
The second video is for local solo artist Larissa Ness and her song Thoughts of You. Larissa brings a very unique sound to her album, combining jazz, pop and R&B. We have combined with Larissa to create a concept for the video and we are excited to get rolling. Check Larissa out at www.larissaness.com and leave her a message with your thoughts.
As most of you know, the main project we have been working on is adapting Torture the Artist from a novel to a screenplay. Joey Goebel has been working relentlessly on the screenplay and we received the latest draft at the end of March. The next draft will be ready in May to coincide with the business plan, marketing package and premiere of the 18 minute short film we produced, also written by Joey. We will be updating the blog very frequently as we move forward with the feature. After we finish these next music videos, our focus will be primarily on Torture the Artist and moving into pre-production at the end of 2009. It is something that you will definitely not want to miss!!
Until next time,
Ozzy
