Geez I totally forgot I was a member of this forum! 
I've just completed my third feature film, Against The Wild, starring Natasha Henstridge and CJ Adams (star of, The Odd Life Of Timothy Green.)
I was producer, director, writer, and editor. Yes, I know, I should cut down on all my jobs!
Here's a trailer:

One thing fellow filmmakers may find interesting is that I used a live 60 piece orchestra for the score. I recorded it in Prague Czech Republic for about 1/20th the cost of doing the same work in Canada or the USA. Plus there are no unions there to deal with. The score was written by Czech composer Varhan Bauer. Here's a little music video of Varhan working with the orchestra.

Everyone told me a live orchestra would not be possible on my budget. I proved them wrong.
This film was shot on the Alexa. Which I decided to buy. I enjoyed the ease of the Alexa workflow but I still miss the beauty of 35mm.
Those are all REAL animals BTW, that is not a CG bear. He's real and weighs in at 1300 pounds! I keep getting asked who did the CG work on the animals. So I wanted to clear that up.
Anyone in the New England area can come see the film first at the Rhode Island International film festival on Saturday August 10th. The film will screen in their main 1900 seat theatre called, The Vets. I expect there will be other festival screenings as the Summer and Fall progress.
