Premiering Nail House footage on a stage like Times Square wasn't exactly some grand strategic move from the start.
It was actually a pretty serendipitous opportunity thanks to the great folks at Digital Spaghetti.
Their team told Freddie about the Times Square Film Festival they were putting together and asked if he had anything he'd like to include. So, a sequence from the final fight of Nail House ended up playing in Times Square. Here's a peek of what it looked like:
Meanwhile, Over at Dungeons & Daddies...
The Dungeons & Daddies: Not a BDSM Sourcebook crowdfunding campaign is coming to an end!
Freddie, Matt, and the rest of the Daddies cast will be LIVE at 3 PM today on the campaign page to hang out and close out the campaign .
And we know our Nail House backers remember how much fun we had during our end-of-campaign livestream. 🦶
And one last reminder for everyone who supported Nail House: Nail House backers who also back Not a BDSM Sourcebook will receive our exclusive returning-backer enamel pin featuring Glenn Close absolutely rocking himself in the nuts with a pair of nunchucks.
Thank you, as always, for sticking around while we make this movie! Hope we see you during the live stream!
It's been a little while since our last update, so we wanted to check in and let you know what's been happening behind the scenes with Nail House and share something new we're incredibly excited about.
Nail House Update
Right now we're deep in editing.
Back in early July, the team set an aggressive internal deadline for Matt and Freddie to export a cut of the film because we were fortunate enough to have several festival contacts interested in seeing the movie, including one who had hoped to watch it before the Fourth of July weekend.
Long story short, the cut wasn't quite ready.
As frustrating as that was, the deadline ended up being incredibly valuable. It gave everyone a much clearer picture of exactly how much work remains before we reach a polished cut and, ultimately, picture lock. Now we have a solid roadmap for what still needs to happen and how the team can support Matt and Freddie as they push toward the finish line.
Luckily, that festival contact is still interested in seeing the film.
So... we're essentially locking Matt and Freddie in an editing room until they come out with a movie. (Food and water will be provided.)
We're also getting a much clearer picture of the pickup shots we'll need. That list is growing, and we're beginning to plan a dedicated pickup shoot that includes a few scenes we're especially excited about...
A miniature Mama Wong's getting blown to pieces.
A motorcycle launching through the restaurant.
Thank you again for making all of this possible!
One More Thing...
Some of you may have already heard the news...
