I know you shouldn’t put these kinds of things up at midnight, but let’s see how it goes.
As some of you may know, for the upcoming novel Dark Soldier, we are working on a teaser trailer, approx. 30 – 60 sec. long. We have been hard at work planning and arranging for the trailer for some number of months now. Finally, it is coming to fruition. So here is what we have for now, and who you will be…
‘Dark Soldier’ Book Trailer Cast List
I know you shouldn’t put these kinds of things up at midnight, but let’s see how it goes.
As some of you may know, for the upcoming novel Dark Soldier, we are working on a teaser trailer, approx. 30 – 60 sec. long. We have been hard at work planning and arranging for the trailer for some number of months now. Finally, it is coming to fruition. So here is what we have for now, and who you will be seeing. Please note that some spots are still open.
Creature on Throne – Sonny Duross
Man in Shadows – Aaron Julca
Photographer – Annika Sams
Costume Designers – Annika Sams / Gabriel Penn
SFX Artist – [Open]
Makeup Artist – [Open]
Producer – Gabriel Penn
Director – Gabriel Penn
Both the SFX Artist and Makeup Artist remain open for now. The special effects artist can be from anywhere, but must know their stuff with Adobe After Affects. The Makeup Artist we would prefer to be from the Upstate New York region.
Honestly, we can probably fill in those spots ourselves but it’s totally cool if someone decides to help out.
A Series of Updates
A Series of Updates on Dark Soldier:
Because I have absolutely nothing else of interest to blog about and I don’t want this blog to go completely out the window, here’s some updates regarding the book I’m in the process of writing, Dark Soldier!
In regards to the teaser trailer, we are finally along more now than ever! Now that we have both actors ready for action, we have to make the props, find a special effects makeup… person……

Because I have absolutely nothing else of interest to blog about and I don’t want this blog to go completely out the window, here’s some updates regarding the book I’m in the process of writing, Dark Soldier!
In regards to the teaser trailer, we are finally along more now than ever! Now that we have both actors ready for action, we have to make the props, find a special effects makeup… person… whatever their title is… and start filming! We’ll be posting pictures on the Facebook page as things come along.
As it gets closer to beg-publishers-to-sell-my-book time, we are getting down official canon looks for the characters. This means y’all get to see General Zenti in all her “five feet tall with a five foot six inch sword” glory. (The drawing version, I mean, not the real life version. I would like to see the real life version too, but we can’t all have it our way. You lied to me, Burger King.)
The overall tone of the second draft is darker than the original, although there is more humor. Surprising how that happened the way it did. It gets a bit more political as well, but I don’t mind that so much. I typically am quite against fantasy being so incredibly realistic, because fantasy is about letting people get away from all that. But I think this has enough non-realist stuff to get away with a bit. That’s what happened with Game of Thrones I think – murder, politics and dragons. Obviously the Soldier Chronicles is nothing like Game of Thrones, but you get where I’m going with this.
That’s it for today! Hope you have an excellent week!
Welcome!
Happy to be bringing in two awesome actors, Jake Holland of Vine and Sonny, a local NY actor, for the book teaser for Dark Soldier! Always exciting to see things progressing!
More Book Updates!
Things get epic as the deadline to getting the second draft done gets closer. So, things are changing, and I’m going to tell you some of them.
1. Dragons are officially no longer in the series. For a fantasy writer, maybe this seems pretty weird, but it’s true! I decided I wanted to change things up quite a bit, and so while we are going to have winged lizard-like creatures, they most certainly are not dragons. It’s very likely they’re not even going to breathe fire. However, they are going to be able to change their colors. And they are called noggards. Yes, I’m not always very creative.
2. Familiars will now be in the series! No, they aren’t reporting to the devil, but they’re there! They can communicate and practice some basic magics. You won’t see much of them in the first books, but they definitely play a part in book 2 and 3 as of right now. And the first one is going to be a froad, which is a lot like a toad, and somewhat like a frog, but mostly like a chameleon.
3. We are way closer to getting the teaser trailer done. After many months of searching, we finally found an actor in the New York area, and we weren’t even looking for one at the time! We were going to do it all by animation, but it looks like God had other plans. His name is Sonny, and he may just become our face of evil. And from what I heard, he is super pumped to be doing this. But now I feel bad about him only being seen for about twenty seconds. I feel like he needs to do more. We shall see.
4. The main country of the book is now by the water. This means the mountains may no longer be mountains. They may just be really big hills. In fact, this country may even be a peninsula. This means there could be some epic fights on the water. No, there ARE going to be epic fights on the water. Pirates are in order.
And that’s really it. I haven’t come up with anything terribly exciting otherwise. Have a good weekend!
