Last night's screening was a rather huge success! "Hellbound"
opened up the evening courtesy of the Lesley Film Maker's Club, warming
up audiences with some old-school flim stylings. Later on, after a
plethora of shorts from some of AiB and Lesley's finest, the new and
improved cut of "Hip Hop, Cherry Pop" was shown to a rather appreciative crowd- glad to see you guys liked it so much!
Here are a few choice photos from the night, courtesy of Andrea York- enjoy!

And here you have it everybody: "Hellbound."
We also managed to put up a better looking and sounding version of the movie here, so if I were you I'd just watch it that way. But that's just me. And I'm weird.
Now I've got to say I'm speaking for Joe on this one too) this movie is a real treat to watch. The whole thing is really a send up to our first half dozen movies we made back in high school, so if any of you notice the references we make and that sort of thing, take pride in knowing your history.
Also, check out this humorous email I got from Joe regarding the title and teaser of the movie. Enjoy the movie everybody, let us know what you think!

So, here's the news for this week:
This Friday we'll be screening the new and improved cut of "Hip Hop, Cherry Pop," complete with the AWESOME final title sequence Joe and I put together this week. It should be a treat, hope to see some of you folks there.
"Hellbound" is going to be put together by Tuesday most likely, until then here's a screen or two from the amazing movie.
Joe and I talked about what we think could turn out to be our big summer 2008 flim, but details are scarce for the moment. Our big objective is to make more 5-10 minute movies to accompany a bigger flim as opposed to making one jumbo movie with a few 1-2 minute movies again. We'll have some info here as soon as we know what we've got cooking.
In bigger/final news: Joe has begun piecing together The Royalty Free Music Ring
on MySpace. The mission of the ring is to unite independent movie
makers and musicians alike in the hopes of gaining exposure for the
bands and solid music for the movie makers. Check out the ring for
details- and invite all your movie and band buddies too. It's a really
solid idea, and its a really great way to strengthen your artistic
networking, so check it out!

Man, this site's certainly being kept concurrent recently, hasn't it? I attribute that mainly to the fact I've been at my computer a lot more in recent weeks, working on the DVD, edits, that sorta thing. Speaking of which, I'm currently throwing together a little something special for those who were looking forward to "The Never-Ending Zombie Movie: Part 3." It's going to be screened at Flim Fest 08, I'm sure of it. Hopefully you all enjoy it.
If
you take a peek around the site, Joe was able to grab some pictures of
some Flim shirts from his buddy Katrina, so check 'em out. Here's one,
the other three pictures are here, here, and here.
So, there you go folks. We also will have some news this week on a screening we're attending in late March (we'll be showing a newer cut of ""Hip Hop, Cherry Pop"" and possibly selling our sharp DVDs). Keep an eye on the site, we love you.

So let's see, news today... oh, well I successfully made the first Beta DVD of "Hip Hop, Cherry Pop" tonight, so that rocks. We're going to send a few copies around to the flim crew and see what the guys think, and when we've got a consensus its a solid disc they'll be made available on our little site here. Here's a laundry list of features for the disc:
- A Behind the Scenes featurette spanning the shooting of the movie
- An 8 minute Blooper Reel
- The Trailer in stunning Standard-def!
- The Worst Ways To Die 6-9
- Two Photo Galleries showing off the premier of the flim as well as stills
- A Commentary track from Joe & Kevin
There's a bunch of other stuff on the disc, but none of it has been committed to the disc yet (it's just a manner of editing/gathering videos from some friends), so rest assured this disc shall rock the socks. Stay tuned for DVD info and news on Flim Fest 08 during the first week of March!

Well, here we are on the eve of Valentine's Day: the most sacred of all holidays here in the US of A. Here at NATB, we've been doing some bureaucratic work in effort to secure the location for Flim Fest 08 (info should be hitting the site within a few weeks).
In the mean time, check out the section we're working on for all of our Flim Fests from years past. We're working on fleshing it out to include photos, stories, and rundowns for every showing we've had spanning back into 2004, so here's to history everybody.

Greetings everyone- make it into 2008 ok? Yeah? Good to hear from you.
We've made a few small alterations to the site (look around to see them all, you'll be glad you did). Alongside a slightly different news page look, we've added a new link to our Community page. The next step is going to be organizing a time-liberated Flim Fest section, with articles and media covering every screening we've ever had. This section will also include a sneak peak at Flim Fest 08, which is already looking rather spectacular (really- its already shaping up for August 9th we think).
Keep your eyes peeled everyone, we'll have more info as it comes. Enjoy 2008 everyone.
