May, but not this year

Due to circumstances (ain't it always), the filming of Zone of Fire has been pushed back to the Spring of 2011. There will be a scouting trip in the Spring of 2010, so check back for updates.

First of April, but not this year

Due to a whole slew of things, the planned shoot of Zone of Fire has been postponed a year.
Look for us in Austin in the spring of 2010.
The delay, while irritating for all concerned, will be worth it in the end.

First of April, near enough

Looks like the bluebonnets will be out in late March, so we're going to schedule our shoot starting about 1 April. More details as we get closer, but there will be a daily shooting schedule (place, time, necessary people) posted here for each day, as far in advance as possible, so stay tuned.
