Wow, this is amazing! We reached our Kickstarter goal in just 9 hours, we didn’t see this coming… Thanks for your incredible support, this will not only help us financing the project but it will also be a great motivation to finish the movie and game in the best way possible. Since the rewards are already gone in one day, we will do our best to add more. Time for a Rusty Lake cigar.

More Paradox T-shirts / Mr. Crow Mask is sold / Cinematography update
about 8 years ago – Wed, May 30, 2018 at 04:06:26 AM

Hi Guys!

Thanks for all your support so far! Last week the Mr. Crow Mask got sold, which is a big milestone for our Kickstarter. With almost 180% funding and 17 days left, we are doing better than we ever expected. It is a challenge to add more rewards at this point, but the coming weeks we have more rewards and updates in store for you.

Since the t-shirts were sold out really quickly we decided to add 50 extra Paradox T-shirts as an reward. Below you can see a better preview of the T-shirt. We still working on the design since it needs to match with the movie, so it's not the final version yet.

In the team section we only explained a small section of the whole movie crew that is involved into the shooting of Paradox. Today we would like to share more about the cinematography of our short film!

We are extremely lucky to work with Cédric Larvoire (portfolio: larvoire.com), who is a very experienced Director of Photography and the right hand of our director Sean van Leijenhorst. The right cinematography is such a key element for creating the same atmosphere as our games. We were amazed by all the shots Cédric and his team made possible on the movie set. Alongside Cédric, we have First Assistant Camera Nicole Goode who did all the focusing work for the film, Second Assistants Camera Mus Naz Sakib and Adele Perrin. Last but not least, Colin Wenger who was the gaffer on the set. We cannot wait to share more about Cédric and his crew’s work, but this will be after the release since we cannot spoil any shots at this point.

Stay tuned! More updates later this week :)
