Updates

This week we released two new films. "A Conversation with Lemony Snicket and Count Olaf" as well as Brennan Eden's "Fifteen Hours" which were both made in two days. Go watch them on the Conrad Studios youtube page. Yesterday Chris Hall, the second director for Double Dread sent me an early draft of his script and it's looking creepy. (Yet not as creepy as my segment :D ) Yesterday I watched Pirates of the Caribbean 3 and it was great. Go watch it. I'll update more when I finish my Double Dread faux trailer.

First Post!

Hey guys, this is me Conrad Faraj. Founder/owner of Conrad Studios. All of the Conrad Studios directors have decided to open up blogs to keep people posted. We will try to update them every week. Tonight me and Brennan are finishing up the final cuts for the animated short "Fifteen Hours" which is really only a 3 minute movie, but its a great 3min movie. Very action packed and fast paced. Brennan's vision created a magnificent war sequence in the end. Hopefully this is the first of many Conrad Studios films using new animated techonolgy. Other than that short film, we've all been focused on the production of our double feature film "Double Dread" inspired by Grindhouse. I havent talked to Chris in like a week. He is the director of the first segment. He told me he had a new draft of his script this week. So we'll see. My segment in Double Dread is called Blood and Specs, and its just an obsolute blood fest. Its extremly gross and disgusting, and def. not recommended for the easily offended. Its a "macho" movie. Its gonna be a lot of fun filming it in July.

This weekend a fake trailer was leaked. That was probably my fault. But who cares, it was great. Brennan directed that as well. In my opinion a bit more gore could have been used, but its all good. This weekend we are starting production for my fake trailer in Double Dread. You can bet it'll be creepy! I'll try to update this thing over the weekend. so until then, adios.
