HOT! — Proof-of-Concept for our upcoming feature “The 8th Year”. HUGE thanks to Wild7 Studios—Chris Trull, April Mendoza, Mr. Naz Red, Rocio Romero, and the whole gang—for their Herculean execution, our cast/crew for continuously bringing their A-Game, and to Perry Santos at Well, Done! Catering for keeping us fueled through production. LOADS of gratitude to our fearless leader Ed King III who inspires me endlessly—Stevie Waichulis for her stellar editing—and the amazing Anise Fuller who didn’t even blink when I threw her name out to play the lead in the POC. Not only is Anise a phenomenal actress, but she is also a phenomenal producer, and friend. Congratulations everyone—WE DID IT! Without further ado—this is “The 8th Year”.

It’s bring your parents to work day @cine_gear_expo 🎥✨ Even though my knowledge of cameras, lights, & lenses are at a bare minimum, coming to a film expo like this helps me as a #filmmaker learn more about what’s out there, connect with brands, and honestly it’s just a lot of fun! Always good running into my #filmcommunity friends & I can’t wait to come back next year 🙋🏻‍♀️ #cinegear #warnerbros #filmmakeropportunities #filmmakingadvice #film #director #femmeregardproductions

Life has been unreal lately 😍 Not only did we get the opportunity to shoot a proof of concept for our amazing clients… but we got the incredible opportunity to film on the beautiful Sony Venice. For those that don’t know, the Sony Venice is an 8k 16-Bit Cinema Beast! We absolutely loved getting to shoot with it & look forward to shooting with it again. A very special thank you to our producers x Director for trusting Wild 7 to deliver, and big shoutout to the @sonycine team for being such a great company to work with and being incredibly helpful and kind through every step of the way. To top off this amazing experience, our DP @iamtrull & our lovely AC @rocio.romerofilms got to shoot with THE Deakinizer Lenses 😍What a dream. These lenses are insane! ✨ Excited to share more about this film soon. Wild 7 Studios is currently booking for the Summer. DM us for more info on how to book with us or email april@wild7studios.com to inquire about all your production, pre-production, and post-production needs.

Happy Friday Everyone! #flashback to last week’s wrap on set of our upcoming revenge thriller “The 8th Year” proof-of-concept shoot. Directed by Ed King III, written by Cheynne Buchanan — and me — the feature will be shot in Vancouver. “The 8th Year” is a revenge action-suspense thriller in the vein of “Atomic Blonde” and “John Wick”. POC was directed by Michael Rochadl and produced at W7 Studios.
