Get waaaaaay behind the scenes of Fireproof


Here's an interesting piece of movie merchandise:  a CD-ROM full of the production files from Fireproof , Facing the Giants  and Flywheel .  Billed as a "production file," the CD includes schedules, legal waivers, interviews, photographs, call sheets, production log, prayer strategy.  It even has some tips on acting if you have to star in the movie yourself!
This is certainly a unique item, since this is the sort of information that most movie producers guard as state secrets.  Don't expect something like this to ever come out for The Dark Knight , but if you're looking at making your own movies, this will probably have lots of good information and put some reality into your dreams.  Its not all hard truths though; remember, as hard as it might seem, this CD is being put out by a group that made it!  They started with a totally self-financed indie, and now they have produced the #5 Grossing Christian Movie of all time!

The Making of Love's Abiding Joy

Here's something we don't see too much: Behind the Scenes footage of Christian film! Ok, I kid, because some films like Facing the Giants and Jonah had a plethora of behind the scenes features. But many, such as The Last Sin Eater, have almost nothing. And speaking of Micahel Landon Jr., that's what we're seeing today. Bill Reinhardt, the sound mixer on the Love's Abiding Joy series of films, has posted a home video from the set of Love's Abiding Joy over on LiveVideo.com It's standard on set footage, but interesting since we've seen almost nothing come out of these sets before. NOTE TO CHRISTIAN FILMMAKERS: This is the sort of thing that should be on your DVD! I find it funny that from my own experiences on movie sets, you have the same types of people show up in just about every movie shoot. Click here if the embeded video doesn't work.
