Crawler
post-production in final stages
Final post-production is under way on Crawler, the
new sci-fi thriller from Timewarp Films. The movie — the most ambitious
to date for Timewarp — features many visual effects and an all-CGI
title creature.
“It’s taking a lot of time not only because of the
creature animation, but because there are many other effects,” said
producer Don Dohler. “We have five computer FX artists working on all
the elements. It’s a major effort, and we didn’t want to rush any of
the work.”
Crawler was shot between late June and early
November last year — the longest shoot of any Timewarp movie. “Much of
that was due to rain delays,” said director Joe Ripple. “That pushed us
into scheduling conflicts with some of the cast. Happily, though, we
got through it and Crawler should be our best movie ever.”
Starring in Crawler are Justin Timpane, Darla
Albornoz, Daniel Ross, James Keegan, Nikki O'Dell, Maynard Edwards,
John Patrick Barry, Ayo Sorrells, George Stover and Claire Sherman.
Dave Oldaker was Key Production Grip and prop-maker,
Steve Myers did make-up FX, Glenn Barnes recorded sound, Sean Quinn is
handling specialty FX and the sound mix, and Mitch Klein is supervising
visual FX, as well as creating the Crawler CGI.
Don Dohler produced and was director of photography,
and Joe Ripple directed. The two men collaborated on the story and
screenplay.
