Most films come into a region, put their heart and soul into building and creating, only having to destroy their work afterwords, leaving the only lasting record in the film shot. We are fortunate enough to not share that fate. In the center of town of Kanab, Utah is a movie museum / restaurant called Frontier Movie Town. After wrapping on our film, Cowboy Ted of the Kane County Film and Tourism Commission, arranged a crew of locals to drive to our remote location, 45min out of town, and dissemble our existing set. They then moved and rebuilt it at Frontier.
It may not look like much now, but this front porch set will be soon refurbished and made to look as it will appear in our film. This means the hard work of production designer, Alex Eastwood, and the rest of the Monster Team will not be forgotten. At least not in Kanab.

Now that I am back home I miss the snow! LA has been hit with a ton of rain over the past few days and without central heat I’m pretty sure I am colder here than I was in Park City. Danny and Bryce are both recovering from the flu and I am happy to report I didn’t get sick at all. Yay!
Now its tax time…ugh…but all is well!
Congratulations to all the Sundance top prize winners especially Todd Woody Richman who we had the pleasure of meeting while we were in Park City. His film, Trouble the Water won the grand jury documentary prize this year. Todd was the Co-Producer and Editor of the film, congratulations again!

Sorry there has been a little lapse in the final day for day coverage of our trip to Sundance 2008. The reason for this is as soon as the Monster panel was completed on Tuesday I fell violently ill. High fever, coughing, sweats, running nose, and body aches (in part because of the snowboarding) consumed the final day and a half of my time in Park City. I wasn’t alone as Line Producer Bryce Hudson had also fallen to the fever around the same time.
Because of this there isn’t much to say about what happened after the panel. It’s all a blur of cough medicine and crazy dreams. I am back in Orlando now, medicated, and feeling 50% better. I am hoping to have a full recovery by Monday.

Today we were featured in the Southern Utah Student Film Production Incentive Panel. It went really well, Marshall Moore moderated with Phil Peters, Cowboy Ted, Danny, Myself, Jake Johnson and Scott all given a turn at speaking about the incentive as well as A Monster in the Attic. The panel officially announced the incentive and our film as the pilot project for future feature films that will be shot in Kane County. Adam Rasumssen (2nd Assistant Camera) and Brant Reinhart (Production Assistant) were also able to attend the panel and it was really great to see them again. Kane County also launched their official website that promotes the Southern Utah Student Film Incentive, check it out here! It was really an honor to be asked by Marshall and Cowboy Ted to be a part of this panel and it was a really great experience for us.
Danny and I were interviewed by The Wasatch Journal and will be featured in their Red Rock Issue in April.
After the panel we had a great lunch with Phil and The Johnsons. Jake and his family then walked around Park City while Danny and I got some work done back at our condo.
After taking The Johnsons back to Salt Lake City, I got all dolled up and went to the Kodak party. It was a great party I saw Suzy Allen and Matthew Curtis of the Florida Film Commission and the Florida Film Festival respectively. Danny and Bryce are pretty sick and decided to stay back at the condo tonight. It was a fun party and I wasn’t out too late.
This festival has been such a great experience, but since I havent been home in over six weeks I am ready to get back to LA.
