For Whom He Tolls

FWHT press in Texas courtesy KLTV and Bob!

Blessings from angels - who's got our back?

Take a look at our cast and crew's collective resume below.  We have managed to assemble what is likely the most solid chance for an Indie Film to break through the industry that east Texas has ever seen.  Look at the hundred + successful movies my crew brings to the table listed below. 

Support us in our adventure of a lifetime that has allowed us to bring one of the most popular movies in the country right here to Panola County and rest assured we will never forget what this means to us.  We have been one of the top 5 preproduction movies in the country (or rather world) since we opened on movieset.com.

This is far more powerful than a script or a movie.  The value of our product revolves around the story of what we've overcome to make it this far. It has landed a television documentary with a second crew filming our adventures. 

We're just 2 kids from your own hometown working endless hours with no promise of reward to deliver a piece of what we've bitten off.  We will tell people everywhere we go at every chance we get what your support means to us and this includes in the movie itself.  Here's our first chance to tell the world who has our back when we need it the most.  We will always have yours.

 JACK DILLARD AND HIS NEWS BROADCAST

All the news from the set 2 days before rehersals

Greetings FWHT fans!!!  With just two days before rehersal begins and principal photography set to commence Monday, June 15, we are proud to have A/C and housing locked down.  Great news from Canada, check it out here first - Dan McDougal just informed us the day after we plugged his association to FWHT and Movieset.com he woke up to find he's the NUMBER 8 BAND IN ROOTS MUSIC IN CANADA ON MYSPACE!!!

Please read more on our news footage.  Now go figure this:  after a month of trying to satisfy one of the principal reasons for setting this movie in our hometown, we have huge news for the locals.  A conversation with Patricia Smith at her store Beauty Sense in Carthage yeilded a phone call from Clay Grizzel of Panola College.  We went into this with two local gifts to the community in mind.  We wanted to help jump start local music and keep it at home by recording as much as 50% of our soundtrack from talent in East Texas, and no. 2, jump-start actor's careers by bringing them on set to act or help produce.

Clay Grizzel phoned our Executive Producer and within hours sent us Erica Doyen, an aspiring actress from Panola College.  Erica spent the entire day with our EP and to finish off the evening filmed b-roll footage under the direction of Randal Reeder.  Also scheduled from PC to film later this week are Erin Robins and Call Callens.  Call met with the EP and Director for several hours tonight and has agreed to step out of his normal routine as an resident advisor for PC and come onto our movie set for the duration of the filming, possibly landing one of the biggest roles as a PA he might see in his lifetime.  We've finally come to the level that getting under our wing could shave 10 years off sleeping on an apartment floor somewhere looking for that next project to plead for.

Clay is looking for other aspiring talent to add to our crew list.  We only got to this level because someone took us under their wing and this is a huge position for us to be in - finally doing the same for others.  We returned to thank Mrs. Smith and her husband Don when they mentioned we might also contact Joe Allison about lodging.  And so we did and our BTS is about to get sick.  Mr. Allison's hunting lodge in Carthage, Texas makes MTV's 'Cribs' look like your college dorm room.  We'll get contact info out for all of these locations and look for more info and BTS from movieset.com, regional papers, and local/national television.

Our EP chatted with the Robin at the Marshall News Messenger in Marshall, TX and she was invited to set for filming.  This just adds another city to come on board and support the local publicity we need to get our point out to the local people that want to get involved:  'For Whom He Tolls' is being filmed in Carthage Texas and has sat for weeks in the TOP 20 movies in the country.

Thanks again movieset.com.  Filming starts this Monday.  Please return your trays and seats to the upright position, fasten your seat belts, and prepare for take-off.

Director- Job Description

The principal creative artist on a movie set. A director is usually (but not always) the driving artistic source behind the filming process, and communicates to actors the way that he/she would like a particular scene played. A director's duties might also include casting, script editing, shot selection, shot composition, and editing. Typically, a director has complete artistic control over all aspects of the movie, but it is not uncommon for the director to be bound by agreements with either a producer or a studio. In some large productions, a director will delegate less important scenes to a second unit director 2UD.

KENT FUSELIER

Bio

Growing up side by side with Randal since Junior High School, these two became close over these few years. 20 years later, their families still own ranches adjacent to one another and still Randal and Kent's paths never crossed until Randal's career had gotten so big it became impossible not to see him on television. Sitting on a decade of executive level production management from the recording industry, Kent still had never set foot on a movie set. Working endless hours over the next 10 months, they trashed project after project at face value from shortcomings arising out of budget issues.  For Whom He Tolls evolved out of this and began to convince us and everyone around us that maybe things didn't have to be that expensive everytime.

Executive Producer- Job Description

The credit given to someone who either contributes or raises the majority of finaces for a production or is responsible for creative input such as writing the screenplay.

Patti Chavez, Jeff Grettler, Wayne Knight, Rusty Adcock

These are all explosive tools with very specific parts to play in this machine.

Seriously, we have IP tied up in what we're playing with to pull this off.

It's likely even we will have to watch our own documentary over and over to even start pretending we completly understand how everything has aligned this perfectly to date.  Its personally remarkable

Producer- Job Description

The chief of a movie production in all matters save the creative efforts of the director. A producer is responsible for raising funding, hiring key personnel, and arranging for distributors.  

In addition to production operations in Lije's position expected of him on a day to day basis, he's just downright handsome enough to unlock doors that don't even have a key.  Carrying around this guy with you is like walking around with diamonds falling out of your pockets.  We're so proud to see him finally directing on his last feature.
