Good-bye 2012!

Jon here:
As the year comes to a close I'm sitting here thinking of the past 12 months, and the nine of them that have been celebrating 10 Years Of Elmwood Productions...  We will be celebrating through March 2013 when we close out the ten year party with the premiere screening of "Animal Behavior" at Paris In Plantsville...
And thank you guys at PiP for all your support since we first teamed up in 2010!

What a year 2012 has been too.  Both wonderful and tragic, as any year can be...
The holiday season is also coming to a close with New Year's Eve celebrations tomorrow nite.  So we at Elmwood want to remind you (and ourselves) to be good to everyone when you can.  And if you can - do good for others too...

Merry Christmas!

Yesterday we saw what Mr. Universe and Don did last Christmas, today we check in with King Tiki Tiki and see what he's up to this year!

Happy Holidays!

Let's see what Mr. Universe and Don did LAST YEAR on Christmas Eve... 

 Come back tomorrow for what they are doing THIS YEAR!!!

Happy Hanukka!

We at Elmwood Productions

Rocket Time!

We've posted here about the film "Rocket Time" here on our blog before. 

It's one of our short films that came out so bad we decided to never shopw it anywhere, ever... 

UNTIL NOW! 

That's right!   In honor of our Tenth Anniversary, and in honor of the sixth anniversary of shooting "Rocket Time" we are posting it here!!! 

Well, sort of.  After the director (Pete "Tricky" Lucco) wisely decided to abandon the film, Russ and Jon decided to have some fun and dub it with different dialog.  The footage was never finished, so it really makes no sence at all, but that's half the fun!   So here for the first time anywhere is 

PETE LUCCO'S MASTERPIECE: ROCKET TIME 

Did you spot the cameo from the original Johnnie Sojive puppet?!

Labor Day weekend has never been the same since for us!

For more on the wild weekend spent shooting this and "The Girl With The Afro" click HERE! 

And in case you haven't seen this, here's the making of "Rocket Time" - 

"FIRE IN THE HOLE!"

 

G@mrz Screening 9/29!

We've had a great year, and we're going to continue with it!

Our association with Paris In Plantsville has led to some amazing screenings and events, and we're proud to announce our next one!

G@MRZ

Four friends who love role-playing games, pizza, and energy drinks are just looking to play one night a week, and add a fifth player to the game to even things out...  But it never works!

This new web-series will premiere at Paris In Plantsville September 29th!

Doors open at 7:00 PM and the show starts at 8:00!  We can't wait to see you there!

Elmwood On...

Steve The Vampire Meets Dracula

Steve the Vampire Meets Dracula

 The Sixth Part in Steve's Adventures!!!

Ten Years!!! Happy Friday the 13th!

It's still our Ten Year Anniversary...

So we found a video of our first project, "It's Late Enough With Plink!", which was a failed cable access show that parodied late night talk shows.

 So we're sharing that video with you...  It's a demo reel for the show.  

Don't be too harsh on us!  We were younger and just finding our bearings and laughing a lot...  To be honest we're still laughing a lot!

Enjoy!!

Yup! We have been doing this for ten years!
Thanks for all your support over the years!
The celebrate we will be screening for the first time ever "The Complete Steve The Vampire" on March 3, 2012 at Paris In Plantsville Gallery and Studio!

That same day Paris In Plants...ville will open a new exhibition to celebrate the Ten Years of Elmwood Productions! The gallery will be filled with puppets from our films, behind the scenes photography, character designs, and more.

"The Complete Steve The Vampire" follows the adventures of Steve who was turned into a vampire as a teenager and although now in his mid-twenties, he just can't catch a break trying to prove himself in the vampire community. Between his overbearing and in denial mother, his indifferent girlfriend, and his unlikely friendship with Dracula, he still manages to keep his head on straight and do his best to avoid being staked by the local vampire slayer.
And all he wants to do is hang out, watch some Star Trek, and enjoy a good glass a blood...

The screening is also part of Paris In Plantsville's monthly film series showcasing independent films made in and connected to the local film community.

And on March 31st we will also be screening our feature film "Josh and Todd: The Story of a Man and is Puppet" to close out the exhibition.
