Trailerpark - An Undergraduate Feature Film at DVinfo.net

Jeff Kolada · April 12th, 2009, 01:07 PM

I am currently working on a feature film called "Trailerpark" as part of an undergraduate study at Ohio University for the School of Media Arts and Studies. We are coming into our last three weekends of shooting and everything is going great. So far we have burned a house trailer to the ground and spent a weekend on a frozen lake in northern michigan, among many other things.
The film is adapted from the Russel Banks (author of The Sweet Hereafter and Affliction) book "Trailerpark". Here are some still pictures and some screen grabs.
Please visit our site, and production blog for behind the scenes and more information.
