Beyond the Mask - Finished!!

After three years of work, the Beyond the Mask team is excited to announce that the movie is finished. “We are so grateful for the Lord’s blessing on this journey,” says Aaron. “He has been faithful to give us the grace to accomplish what He called us to do. And we couldn’t be more excited about the film we have to release to you.”

The final artistic touches such as the color grade and audio mix were completed in cinema studios out in California, with Aaron and Chad on site. But you will get a chance to glance over their shoulders at their work in several upcoming blog posts. I will be doing interviews with a few more of the artists who have brought the project to such a strong finish.

Please keep Aaron and Chad in your prayers as they continue traveling to meet with distributors.

Hoovey - Movie Trailer

Starring Patrick Warburton (Emperor’s New Groove, Men in Black II) and Lauren Holly (NCIS, Picket Fences) as Jeff and Ruth Elliott, Hoovey recounts the story of their son, Eric “Hoovey” Elliott, a promising athlete with a passion for basketball whose dreams were threatened by a near-fatal brain tumor. Battling back from surgery, Hoovey had to relearn how to walk, read, even see clearly. With medical bills pushing his family to the brink of ruin, only their faith and deep love for one another offered hope.

Alone Yet Not Alone - JUNE 13th

ALONE YET NOT ALONE is based on an inspiring true story taken from a novel of the same name written by Tracy Leininger Craven and depicts a family at a critical juncture in America's history.

Fleeing religious persecution in Germany, the Leininger family seeks a new start in uncharted country - America. It is the mid-1700s and British and French forces are struggling for control over the abundant resources of this new territory.

Despite the escalating tension mounting around them, the Leiningers give thanks and praise for the sparkling streams and majestic forests around Penns Creek and above all, their freedom to worship. Carving out a homestead can be arduous work, but the Leiningers labor joyfully. After all, what the land will not yield, the cherished family Bible would, providing the everlasting nourishment of God's promise.

Then the unthinkable: In a terrifying raid, Delaware warriors kidnap the two young Leininger daughters and attempt to indoctrinate them into native culture. Through their ordeal they never lose hope and "their faith becomes their freedom".

Kendrick Brothers - Movie 5

The Kendrick brothers are now shifting into the production of Movie 5. Over the last five months we set up a production office, conducted online and live casting sessions, locked in our crew, and scouted the needed locations for the story. Every location is visually rich and completely fresh to us. God has provided an amazing cast of strong believers. Some are new faces to us, others you will recognize from our previous films, and there are a few surprises that many will recognize from the Christian ministry world. The Lord has also provided an excellent crew of Christian filmmakers and film-school interns. Many of them have been praying for God to open the door for them to work on a movie project that honors Him. Our production office is humming along. Lots of buzz. Tons of progress every day. We are very grateful that multiple pastors and churches are working together and surrounding this effort in prayer.

Filming will begin next week. We are asking for your prayer support as we enter into this crucial time. The production schedule is set for June and July this summer. Release of the movie title will come soon, but in the meantime, please pray! We need God’s continued blessing, favor, protection, and guidance to cover this entire process - down to the smallest detail. We know the enemy is at work to confuse, confound and attack, but God is clearly blessing and reigning over these efforts!

If you want to sign up as a Prayer Warrior for Movie 5, you will receive periodic updates concerning specific ways to pray as production progresses.

Here's a start...

• Pray for God to be glorified throughout this entire process.
• Pray that God anoints and uses this script to ignite believers and draw people to Christ.
• Pray that Alex, Stephen, Shannon and their families will be surrounded by God’s strong hand of protection, provision, and peace throughout production and post-production.
• Pray that the cast and crew will be protected from harm, fear, danger, sickness, and other attacks of the enemy.
• Pray that God will do exceedingly above all we could ask or imagine for His glory through the finished product.

Thank you so much for your ongoing prayer support! More to come...

Look Up

Look Up is a spoken word for the “online” generation. Written, performed and directed by Gary Turk, it is an extremely important life lesson for our youth.  Children are growing up in a world where they don’t play outside or communicate with their friends. It seems today everything is done via text message or over the internet. It’s heartbreaking… I feel guilty myself. We need to spread this message before it’s too late.

David and Goliath - Casting

A world-wide search for the actor to play the lead character of 'David' for the big-budget movie, 'David and Goliath' is taking the casting directors to London, Rome, Los Angeles, New York, and even Berlin.

"We're leaving no stone unturned," says Director Tim Chey. "We want the very best actor to play young David."

'David and Goliath' commences shooting next month in Morocco, Tunisia, and Algeria. "We've narrowed our list to 12 incredible actors," says a casting spokesperson. "We had over 1,500 submissions."

The film looks at one of the most powerful and beloved Bible stories of all time and will focus on the early life of David who fought against the Philistine giant, Goliath against all odds.

"We've had lots of name actors submit, but we want an unknown actor," Chey continues. "We want the audience to really get into the character of who David was and not be tainted by any familiarity."

Chey is no stranger to casting in foreign territories. He produced the $20 million film, 'Carry Me Home' that took his casting directors around the world for an unknown actor to play John Newton. The film stars Cuba Gooding, Jr., Sharon Leal, William Sadler, and unknown Bernard Forcher. It was shot on the Amistad. 'Carry Me Home,' is slated to open nationwide in December 2014. You can see the trailer at CarryMeHomeMovie.net.

'David and Goliath' comes at a perfect time. Hollywood is embracing faith-based films as of late and the audiences are growing at a record pace according to reports.

Will 'David and Goliath' stay Biblically correct? "Absolutely," says Chey. "Hollywood should embrace true Believers to tell Biblical stories."

'David and Goliath' is set for an early-2015 nation-wide theater release. "We will have the P&A for a 1,500 theater release," says Chey.
