Falling Skies Set Visit, Cast Interviews Pt2 – Weapons Training & More

It’s been about 2 weeks since my last batch of Falling Skies cast interviews, so I’m overdue on posting this, but these are longer and more in-depth clips than before.  In this latest batch of interviews you get to see the cast discuss the weapons training they received for the show, talk about who might be a practical joker on set, answer whether or not any of them have met Steven Spielberg and finally tell how much they enjoy being a part of Falling Skies.  So sit back and enjoy watching these wonderful actors give candid answers to some questions we’ve all wanted to ask.

First up: Weapons Training

New Falling Skies Season 2 Preview!

Fans of Falling Skies have waited patiently, yet excitedly for season 2 to premiere.  It may still be a few weeks away, but my good friend Robert Prentice of Three If By Space has some new information you will definitely want to check out.  The juiciest bit of all is a brand-new 2 minute exclusive season 2 preview from Access Hollywood.

If you liked the show last season, this new season will literally blow you away.  If you were one of the few who wasn’t sure about Falling Skies, season 2 is going to change your mind for the better.  There’s more action, the special effects are even better (if that’s possible as they were near perfect in season 1), and the fight grows more intense.

So hurry over to Three If By Space to read “All New Look at Falling Skies Season 2″ and see the exclusive new video from Access Hollywood.  You will not be disappointed.

Falling Skies Set Visit – Cast Interviews Pt1

I’m a little late with this as I mentioned in Falling Skies Set Visit Part 3 – Meet The Cast! that I’d have some interviews in “about a week.”  Well, it’s been almost 2 weeks, but as promised some short, but sweet, interviews with some of the great cast of Falling Skies.

As I mentioned in my previous article, when we first arrived on set shooting was going on so we were escorted to a large room while the real work was being done.  That was where we were surprised by Colin Cunningham (Pope), Peter Shinkoda (Dai), Drew Roy (Hal), and Sarah Carter (Maggie) who joined the already present Connor Jessup (Ben) to patiently and graciously answer all our burning questions.

Let’s start with the shortest video in the bunch.  It’s only 15 seconds long, but it

answers the question, “Who’s the funniest person on set?”  One actor gives a very definitive answer, and after meeting this person I’m not surprised one bit.

Citizen in the Temple – Another Great Short From Jason Huls & Ten Wing Films

A little while back I had the honor of reviewing a wonderful scifi short film from an up-and-coming young filmmaker by the name of Jason Huls and production company Ten Wing Films.  If you haven’t heard of it yet, you can read my review and watch the trailer here: The Drone – Intriguiging Scifi Short Film.  Jason is a very busy young man and I’ve been remiss in bringing to your attention another scifi short he’s working on called Citizen in the Temple.  I aim to remedy that omission immediately.

UPDATE: L5 – Subtitles, Video Shout Out, & C2E2 Info!

Season 2 of Falling Skies – Hints of Deeper Mysteries

Three If By Space the internet’s premiere site for “Falling Skies” news is reporting some interesting developments are afoot in season 2.  Tom is gone, some new faces arrive, and more alien mysteries will be presented.

The Drone – Intriguiging SciFi Short Film

“Androids are not supposed to dream.”

This is the tagline of a soon to be released sci-fi short film from Ten Wing Films and the mind of Jason Huls.  The Drone is a very interesting take on the concept of androids in a futuristic society and what it means to be a “person.”

L5 – You Love It, Here’s Why You Should Donate

At 0832 CST Monday March 5th, L5 passed one million downloads.

For all of you who’ve downloaded L5 and enjoyed it, but have yet to donate anything, please allow me to explain how giving just a dollar would be the best investment you could ever make.  One damned dollar people.  You spend five times that each morning at Starbucks and all you get is 5-10 minutes of coffee you could’ve made for pennies at home.  With a single dollar from each downloader we could have already cemented a couple of 13 episode seasons each with budgets of over twice what this one cost.  Imagine how much more awesome it would be with more budgetary freedom. (Maths: $1,000,000 / 26 episodes over 2 seasons = $38,461.54 per episode.  That’s 2.54 times the pilot’s budget…for a buck!)
