TENANTS OF CARVER HILL
Earlier this month. I had the pleasure of gathering a skeleton crew from our original Carver team to capture the final puzzle pieces of the film. Filming in the stark, wintry woods added a striking, almost spectral contrast to a story that largely unfolds amidst the lush, green springtime of rural Pennsylvania.
As Tenants of Carver Hill, our haunted house thriller, draws closer to locking picture, its eerie, enigmatic essence is coming into full form.These newly captured sequences are weaving seamlessly into the film, enriching the story’s timeline with an added layer of depth, atmosphere, and intrigue.
More post-production updates are on the horizon. In upcoming newsletters, I’ll delve into the artistry behind the film’s musical composition and visual effects. Both are vital in creating this haunting tale.
