On May 9th we released the trailer for Catherine Adelaide. It was a big step
for me as a new director and film writer. Not only for me, but as well as the
entire team and the film itself. Within a few hours of releasing, the Catherine Adelaide Facebook page doubled
its fan base and currently has over 240 likes. This may seem tiny and little
gain for a film audience, especially when a video or a Facebook page can gain great
popularity in a matter of seconds. But for me, this little increase in Facebook
followers is a huge achievement that makes me ecstatic and thankful towards the
people who have constantly supported this project.
In the end, Catherine
Adelaide will be a tender film which has been put together by well-trained
but young professional artists who are active in the Newfoundland film culture.
And in my opinion, an amazing team who has accomplished a great deal. Catherine Adelaide had three main goals,
one – to provide a creative on-set opportunity for friends I knew that were
interested in filmmaking living in the Corner Brook and St. John’s area. Two –
To have fun and learn while doing it. Three – To illustrate a story of leaving
home that could potentially relate to residents of Newfoundland and Labrador.
So far in my opinion we have completed two out of three
goals, and the third will have to wait until we release the final cut of the
film. But this is not something I am too worried about because we did it, and
had fun doing it. Something that I think is important to the art and trade of
filmmaking.
I want to say ‘thank-you’ for all your support and interest
in a short that has been cradled very carefully by an exceptional team.
Thank-you all for being awesome,
Andrew Tremblett
