Vampire's Thirst

New short film I am working on called Vampire's Thirst about global warming, vampires, and drinks with mistaken identities. Wrapped shooting April 23rd on the Sacramento City College campus.

Blood Mixture by End of Days Brewing Co.

 

Thanks to Gimp Users for the blood splatter tutorial. I knew that GIMP sparkle brush was good for something. Made a cool beer bottle label inspired by the HBO show True Blood. See how it turned out in the image of Blood Mixture by End of Days Brewing Company. (I am sticking with that name for all my future homebrew endevors btw).

Scarecrow fangs from Amazon.com

I bought some cool fangs from Amazon.com that fit perfectly for the vampire. The night prior to shooting, I met with my lead actor (the vampire) and gave him the fangs. Wouldn't you know it, he called out sick. So I had to drive to his house that morning to pick up the fangs and give them to my backup. (In filmmaking, always have a backup). The fangs look great I would buy them again. They even came in cool carrying cases. They don't adhere to your tooth but come with a molding agent. Once fitted, you can use them over and over again.

Film props

Overall I think I spent about $150 dollars on this film. It was a school project so can't expect much. I had to buy all the props for the drinkers such as everything for a bloody mary. At least now I have plenty of vodka to go around. Should have the video edited and complete with special effects in about two weeks. Go to http://www.vampires-thirst.com.
