Alex and Nathan are on their way to Orlando (Josh will be joining later) to attend Spooky Empire's Horror Film Festival for their screenings of LOADS and all their other great activities for filmmakers! 🍆 🎥 🥜 🎬 💦

Nathan is much more excited than Alex for the airport people mover conveyor belt thing.

Load-in - August 8, 2025: On Friday evening, Alex, Casey, and Nathan prepared the location for filming days 2 and 3. Aside from setting up equipment, they also laid a tarp on the floor to avoid makeup mess, and hung contractor bags over the windows to ensure a nighttime look, even in the middle of a sunny summer day.

Shopping - August 4, 2025: To gather prop, makeup, and crafty supplies for filming days 2 and 3, Nathan and Casey visited the trusty trifecta of Kino Crew retailers - Aldi, Target, and Family Dollar - with Casey wearing proper summer attire, and Nathan dressed like a high-school science teacher from his undisclosed day job.

For a brief departure from movie news: Josh and his fiancée Madhura got married on September 17! 💐 🍾 🥂

As you may have seen in past posts, Madhura has actually worked on two Kino Crew Productions already - acting and providing special effects for GOBBLEHEAD 3, and providing special effects for LOADS - so we are glad to officially have her in the fold.

Please join us in wishing them many years of happiness! ❤️
