The Making of The Underground
Uploaded by: eklectyk
Video Description:
The story for "The Underground" was first conceived in November 2004 after Aled and Taylor sat down to talk about ideas for what would be their first collaboration. The writing/direction duo took inspiration from a true hostage situation to write the short screenplay with the detailed characters needed for a gripping drama and the suspense needed for a edge-of-your-seat action movie.
Despite the high production needs and limited resources, Aled and Taylor took the project head on. They took the next several months to audition nearly a hundred actors, travel numerous times from Philly to New York, to hold rehearsals, assemble a small but professional crew, scout locations, cons
ult with actual police and military veterans, purchase wardrobe and props and do all of the other tasks required for a large production. Shooting commenced in February 2005 and lasted for four days without reshoots. Time was very limited but the duo managed to set up hundreds of different shots (th
ere are over 150in the final 14 minute movie). The editing, Foley, ADR and color correction was finished by Aled and Taylor in the subsequent months. The two hope to use the project to garner support for their feature length screenplay "Steel & Bones" (created with additional writer Aaron Rapke) and their feature film "Savant," filming in Philadelphia in December 2006.
