This scene takes place on a train, with moments split between moving shots and a stop along the way. Production got us an incredible train built by Abraham Lincoln’s son, which is privately owned. It was extremely tight corners on the inside but completely woth it. One interesting tidbit was because it was made in a time right at the birth of electricity it had both electric and gas powered lighting because they were not confident enough in electricity yet to rely on it completely. They let us ride for a few hours, giving us the chance to capture a beautiful montage as it traveled. We filmed the exteriors at a train depot that is currently a museum. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ “Color of threads” ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Crew is too many to name and tag but had an amazing cast and crew on this one with a mix of folks from Washington, Oregon, and LA. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Director: Richard L.

It wouldn’t be a western if we didn’t have a horse and wagon. This setup we did a homemade process trailer @jnh675 had her family rig up for us. Gotta love filming on the family farm. “Color of threads” Crew is too many to name and tag but had an amazing cast and crew on this one with a mix of folks from Washington, Oregon, and LA.

“The Class” Working in such a tight space was challenging but we were able to pull off some pretty cool setups. This was our circular dolly setup we did that also involved a few dramatic lighting cues. @gpedro153 did an amazing job programming the lights and achieving the vision we were after.

“I wanted to go for the most naturalistic approach to serve the aesthetics of the film. I wanted the lighting, framing, and movement of the camera to take a step back and let the wonderful talent we had in front of the camera shine. We opted to go for an almost entirely handheld look to emphasize the feeling of being a quiet observer in each scene. That technique empowered us to give the actors a bit of breathing room to explore the space, allowing the camera to react rather than define the blocking so much. I didn’t want any distracting camerawork that would overpower the scenes. Opening up more space for the actors to just perform was the main objective. Aside from the script, the thing that drew me to this project the most was the people involved. When we had our first meeting, I loved Terre’s energy and his passion for the film he was creating. I think everyone involved could see that this was a dream come true for him and it was the exact thing that got me into this business. So of course I was in!” -Tim Banks, DP Max Dagan @timtationn BIO: Tim Banks is recognized for lensing multiple independent feature films as well as amassing an impressive body of commercial and promotional content for major brands such as Philips Hue, and studios, including Peacock’s new series Ted, created by Family Guy’s Seth MacFarlane, and Apples Never Fall,starring Annette Bening.

Meet Dan Clancy, played by @michaelmadsenofficial A powerful player in the local troopers union, Dan Clancy’s foreboding presence commands obedience. Dan’s history and influence extends far beyond his union duties, as Max Dagan discovers as he tries to save his father from prison. Michael Madsen is an indomitable and magnetic force as a character actor. In one of his most unforgettable roles, Madsen plays Sonny Black in Donnie Brasco (1997) with an understated menace and penetrating veracity. Madsen frequently collaborates with writer/director Quentin Tarantino, starting with Reservoir Dogs (1992) and continuing with Kill Bill: Volume 2 (2004), The Hateful Eight (2015), and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood (2019). Playing a supportive and loving father in the beloved classic Free Willy (1993), Madsen’s range as an actor is vigorous. Madsen brings his strength and ferocity to his role of Dan Clancy in Max Dagan.
