The big thing for us has been The List. We had our second block of shooting in the middle of October and the preview screening on the 1^st of February this year. So many people put their time, effort and lives into making this the best it could be – and we’re immensely proud of what we have to show. The screening went down a treat and now we get to focus on procuring some funding to finish the film off! Here’s a link to the trailer:

We’ve also started working really closely with actors in shooting scenes specifically for showreels. It’s not always easy to get a role that shows your diversity – especially if you’re playing against type, so shooting scenes specifically for that reason makes so much sense! I don’t know why more people aren’t doing it! Check out one of Josh Futcher’s scenes here.

There’s plenty still on the horizon, and we’re going to endeavour to keep this updated as much as possible. If not, it means we’re working hard so don’t worry about us too much! In the meantime, we updated our showreel - so check it out and let us know what you think!

So check it out, and if you're so inclined, jump on to his website (listed below too) to grab the single and support some local talent!

We'd love to hear your thoughts on the track and the video! Big thanks to Simon and Anita for their patience during the shoot, Shaun Herbertson for some mad camera skills, as well as the lovely (and spectacular) Thornbury Theatre and Anthony Cincotta for his assistance on the day.

Just wanted to drop a quick update about the happenings around town - it's been musically crazy this last month and we've had a ton of projects that have revolved around music!

Firstly, we shot a music video for the super talented, Melbourne-local Simon Astley for his song Sunlight. We're hard at work cutting it together, and it has come up a treat. Very classy as it was shot at The Thornbury Theatre (complete with Grand Piano and candles). We'll let you know when it's up.

We also got to shoot the EP launch for our good pal Chris O'Neill. We're cutting his whole set together, and the footage looks ace. 4 cameras, 2 GoPro and one helluva night. That will be a little while off before you can see that, but to tide you over, here's a pretty rad screen shot

Anyway, that's it for this update. It's been busy, but loads of fun. And we can't wait to show you all what we've been up to.

Hi everyone,

So as you may know, we’re currently making a low-budget, self-funded, independent feature film called The List! We’re organising this shoot in October and once this is completed, we’re editing the first 15 minutes of the film together to try and acquire funding and money to finish the film off.

The shoot is going to take place over 3 nights (Friday the 14th, Saturday the 15th and Sunday the 16th of October) and is a big party scene. We need as many people to be extras as possible and you’re help will be extremely appreciated.

Because the party is all one event, but taking place over three nights shooting, it’s ESSENTIAL that you are able to make all the nights. Again, we realise this is a huge commitment but here’s what you’ll get out of it:

- FOOD! We’ll feed and hydrate you over the three nights
- You will see yourself on the big screen at the screening of the first 15 minutes at the end of the year
- FUN! Plus who knows? You might make some new friends?
- Our everlasting thanks, hugs and kisses
So please, if you are interested and want to help out and CAN do all three nights, email info@balloontreeproductions.com and we’ll send you details.

Here's the facebook event for the shoot - share it around! And hit attending!

Also, if you know anyone that might be interested please pass this on, as it’s the more the merrier. Any questions, let us know

Thanks,

The List Production Team

As is usual with competitions, we had an extremely tough time picking our winner, but it's with great pleasure we have awarded Driveby Epic a free music clip for their song "Damage Report". The boys are launching their second EP this Saturday (the 20th of August) at the Empress Hotel in Fitzroy North so make sure you go check them out!

A big thanks to all the talented artists who submitted their work, we were blown away by the quality of the tracks and can only wish you the best of luck in the future!

If you want a FREE music video, then what are you doing still reading this!? Click the link!

But here it is - our very first official music video for the extremely talented and amazing Snowy Belfast. This is the first single from their newly released EP entitled "Cry No More".

Take a look, let us know what you think! And stay tuned! Plenty more cool stuff to come in the future!

I won't say much more, for fear of revealing any spoilers, but I will leave you with this: our first teaser trailer. Very simple, but it gives you an idea of the characters you're going to follow through the film. Enjoy!
