We asked everyone in the cast and crew to tell us a bit about their character or what they did for the movie behind the scenes, how they came to be involved and, most importantly: “What Happens To Ava?”. Thomas Bailey and Ann Cusack talked about it during the first day of shooting in this video:
Be sure to go to YouTube, Viddler, Facebook and Twitter to find out more about what’s going on at Crooked Lane.
Just because the filming wrapped at 5:15 last night and the cast and crew enjoyed a break at the wrap party (videos below), it doesn’t mean the work is done or the content will stop! We have hours of footage of the cast and crew answering your questions, more back story from Thomas to come, and weeks of editing. If you are into the technical side of film, you’ll love that we’ll be bringing you into some of the editing process as well (without divulging the actual film of course – we want you to be surprised).
I’d like to give the crew a round of applause for pulling five straight days of grueling location work in often terrible weather. They really came through, in spite of days full of mosquitos and flash flood inducing weather and days full of sunburns lugging heavy equipment in the heat. Without them there would be no film to edit.
Be sure to tell everyone you know to subscribe to the blog, join the FaceBook page, follow us all on Twitter (cast Twitter accounts on the cast page, crew Twitter accounts will be added soon), subscribe to the YouTube channel and put your real time comments in the Viddler channel. We’re going to continue to answer your questions until the film is in the can. We love having you with us on this journey.
Here are a few quick videos from the wrap party last night taken using my mobile phone and Qik. We also have several (more professional) interviews taken by Amy which will go up later. Enjoy, and keep those questions coming!
In a previous blog post, we asked for your questions. We’ve decided to tackle them one at a time. In this post, Chase Bailey answers the question posed by Matt Searles regarding what makes the film interesting.
You can follow us on Viddler and YouTube for more video content and behind the scenes gems. We are still taking questions over on the other blog post as well, so be sure to toss yours in the mix!

The production team is led by Mark Constance (“Being John Malkovich”) and Tracey Becker (“Finding Neverland”). The team will bring together a taut screenplay and adept actors in a local New Hampshire setting to bring this harrowing story to life on the screen.
Joining Chase will be actors Ann Cusack (“A League of Their Own”) and Brett Cullen (“Lost”) and local talent from the New England area. Shooting begins July 6th on the Seacoast of New Hampshire. Bailey will direct the film which will be in the vein of such thrillers as “The Sixth Sense” and “The Orphanage”. Amy Greenlaw and Leslie Poston of Film Pop! will be in charge of social media, new media and digital marketing of the film.
The film from Bailey’s original script will mark the directorial debut from Bailey and the producing debut of longtime Assistant Director Smith (“Little Miss Sunshine”). The film will use the revolutionary RED camera and will be shot by Cinematographer Patrick Ruth (“Long Distance”). The Production Designer will be Shawn Carroll (“The Sensation of Sight”).
