Novos New Year’s Update

Hello all!

It’s been a while since the filming delay was announced, but since then Novos has been moving along. Several prints in the print series are nearing completion and should be released soon. There’s also been some exciting progress in creating the film’s digital assets, a teaser of which you can see below. Expect more updates soon as the project really ramps back up!

Novos filming delayed

First, I want to apologize for the gap in communication. I wanted to have everything as certain as possible before announcing this.

Filming for Novos has been delayed until next summer. At the end of August the crew and I were all ready to shoot, but unfortunately our main costumer (whose name was never published on this site — i.e. not Travis Boatright, who is marvelous) failed to deliver the main-character’s costume. It was a big fiasco. The producers and I attempted to find a new costumer, and managed to get in contact with some very talented professionals, but the timing wasn’t with us. As those familiar with the Pacific Northwest know, once the weather changes in the fall you rarely see the sun again for a while. I made the call to push production back rather than sacrifice the quality of the film. Between now and next summer I’ll be working with the visual effects team to produce as much of the CGI work as possible. In the end, I’m confident the film will emerge from this setback and be a better film for it.

As for the print series — that will go ahead as planned. I’m working with the artists on each of their prints. My goal is to try to have all of them finished by January, then release them staggered through spring. Given the delays with several previous prints, I’ll now be sticking to a policy of only revealing prints once I have them in-hand. But rest assured that all prints are still going to be made, and within a reasonable timeframe. I’ve even managed to get some new artists interested in creating prints for the series, with at least one fantastic artist committed and several in-talks.

If anyone has any questions, about either the film or the print series, I encourage you to contact me. The film marches on, and there’ll be some cool new updates soon!

“We Keep Watch” promotional print by JC Richard!

Finally, here’s the first print in the production print line-up. Created by the wonderfully talented JC Richard, “We Keep Watch” is a 28″ x 12″, 10-color (with 2 fades) screenprint with an edition of 120. There are also Night and Mist variants with editions of 40. Printing will be by D&L Screenprinters.

The 1st Edition will be $50 and the variants will be $70 each. The prints will go up at the Novos Store at 11am PST on Friday, July 29th. However, since print package buyers will get first dibs on the variants, there’s a chance there will be very few left over for the general drop. If you’d like to get in on the pre-drop, the Novos Print Packages will remain available until Noon PST tomorrow, July 28th.

And so everyone is aware, these’ll take about a month to ship out. Why such a long wait? Well, we’re selling the print early to open up access to the proceeds for the film shoot, which is three and a half weeks away!

Last chance for the Novos Production Print Package!

The Novos Production Print Package will be taken down from the Novos Store within the few days as we prepare to release the first print in the package. So if you’re still thinking of purchasing this awesome set of prints and all the perks that come with it, head over to the Novos Store!  There are also a couple of Jay Shaw’s “Servant of Cybele” AP prints still available. Every purchase helps us make this awesome film!

It’s been a little while…

…since we last published some concept art. So, we’d like to share this amazing piece by Zoran. As far as the film goes, we’re currently in the casting process, and should have details on cast and full crew soon. Also, keep an eye out for the first print in the production series sometime soon!
