We are very pleased to announce that we have finally completed principal filming for our short film ‘My Imaginary Friend’. Believe it or not, it has been over a year since we first started filming for this project. Unfortunately, due to the existence of day jobs, family life and such, this is the reality for many emerging filmmakers.

As well as the always hard-working Kayla McKee, we are so grateful today to have had the amazing talents of Jennifer and Davis Angsiting, rounding out the completion of the live action portion of filming for this project. Everybody did an amazing job.

BUT… work has by no means come to an end for this project just yet. Due to the nature of this film, we have really only rounded out phase one of an admittedly ambitious creation. We still have the enormous task of rotoscoping this beast. For those that don’t know what that is, this means that we are going to use the live action footage as reference and redraw the characters, FRAME BY FRAME, to leave only animated characters.
On top of this, for what was simply going to be ‘only’ hand drawn/painted backgrounds, we still have some interesting ideas for this yet.
Of course, there is also the matter of music, sound design, and everything else that packages together a film. As happens to be the trend these days, many short films require the assistance of crowdfunding to make these jobs possible and ‘My Imaginary Friend’ is no exception. Especially when we are making a genuine effort to produce the most quality and entertaining piece of film we can.
We plan to have more information and other updates soon, so stay tuned!

As always, we appreciate everybody’s support that they’ve given to this project so far. All across the board. From the actors, the assistants, and even anyone who has bookmarked our website or liked our facebook page, every little bit of support is not just appreciated, but it’s essential in allowing a project like this to exist.

Until next time, please check out some of the photos from today’s shoot.

Thanks – Chris and Dean
