Shadowdog
The H. P. Lovecraft Film Festival is by far our favorite film festival. Chairman Andrew Migliore has held this crazy adventure together for more than a decade and our gratitude to him for this and all his help and encouragement might best be exhibited in this bumper we're making for him (oh, but we haven't told him yet).
Shadowdog is now available on our new DVD: The Cosmic Horror Fun-Pak, which contains this and many other short movies by Guerrilla Productions, most of which are not available anywhere else!

Production Diary
10-1-2004: "Shadowdog" plays well at The H. P. Lovecraft Film Festival 2004. Much laughter ensues!
4-12-2004: I showed "Shadowdog" as a sneak preview at Norwescon. It was spookily popular. People loved it so much they requested watching it again after the film festival!
12-10-2003: Okay, I understand now. It's done. It's short and funny.
12-6-2003: Digitized the audio and the video. I would definitely say that recording the audio separately and running a good filter on it was a real improvement! First pass at the sync seems to look pretty good, but I can't figure out how to get these horizontal artifacts out of the video. They're not there in VideoWave, so it must be some kind of setting, such as field variations, but I can't figure out which ones it is. Yet.
12-1-2003: Finished shooting the video. I am reminded every time I do this that I ought to just go out to a thrift store or dollar store and buy a bunch of cheap-ass clamps. And I really, really need to buy two good cardiod mikes that match.
11-30-2003: Finished the text and audio sequences. There's a piece that's a little longer than I would like, but it's going to require the live sequences in there to get everything just perfect.
