Thanks!

I agree 100%. We were lucky enough to have a great DP, good actors, one of them really great. The male clown. We also had a make-up artist who's amazing, but so bored doing weddings and prom type events. She was really excited to do evil clowns.

To me, one of the easiest things to overlook when filming is the quality of the sound. Sound is something most people don't think about until they hear bad quality. Then it can ruin the whole film.


This is from the second film.

Yeah, it's amazing how many potential ultra low budget efforts have been ruined by bad sound. I'm speaking from experience.

This is Dena's and my short film. It's very short, but pretty good...we think.

Good stuff, Pia. Picked a good time for creepy clown shorts with It putting them back in style.


That rug really tied the room together.

Very nicely done. I see a couple of lovely cameos at the end too.  

Can I just say as a nitpick I wished the morphing into evil clown's makeup was a bit more sinister.  

How the heck... Did you shoot in a real elevator?

Looking forward to seeing your next one, gals.

Ooh, just noticed the still from the coming attraction. That looks really creepy. In a really good way.

Thanks guys and gals!

That is not a real elevator. It's a prop we had built. It was a total pain in the ass to move though as that one back panel was 8'x8'. We had to rent a Penske truck twice to move it! Now it's safely stored in Dena's garage. I don't even want to think about moving it again for awhile, lol.

So, the elevator is fake and we actually shot this in our DP's living room! Very tight quarters during the shoot, to say the least.



We shot both films over the weekend two weeks ago. We met up in Jax on Friday and discussed things, had a few drinks and installed the elevator. Saturday and Sunday were full days starting at 9am and lasted into 2:30am.

Hopefully, the second film will be ready before next weekend. That one is called Wanna Play? It's not posted at SS. We just wrote that one a couple of months ago. It came about as these creepy clown sightings around the world had started to show up again. We also have a feature script to go with it. Who knows, maybe someone will be interested in buying it. In other words, Wanna Play?, the short is a stand alone short, but also a sort of teaser for the feature. We will see what happens.

Thanks again.

Quoted from Pale Yellow
Great job on this Pia. I can't wait to do this little creepy piece!


LOL at my comment and WE DID FILM IT!! Two years later turned out really good I think Pia. I have learned so much working with Pia. I've learned so much from all of you in here. I hope I will always continue to learn and grow because I love writing and I love film. Feeling Thankful.

Congrats on the film, Pia and Dena.

I guess I’m one of the few who doesn’t find clowns the slightest bit scary. People, on the other hand...

Everything looks great. Nice set. Love the cameos.

Good job. Best of luck with it.

I'm not afraid of clowns. Don't really like them either though. They're just part of the past IMO. People that worked at carnivals and circuses. Neither of which I like. In fact, I hate circuses.

We were aware of the IT film and wanted to tie into that.

As far as the film goes, we had the elevator prop built and then we started to think about a script, and I remembered I had a couple of elevator scripts! We rewrote Coulrophobia to fit our needs and here we are.
