Inspired by Robert Jordan’s Wheel of Time series, Flight From Shadow is our 2013 non-monetized short film with big production values.
Originally hosted at the https://www.youtube.com/user/epicleveltv channel, these two videos can now be seen through the McGrew Studios youtube channel at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC5VyQpzn9jEd0UPhybsxHmA
ABOUT FLIGHT FROM SHADOW:
This film’s screenplay by Blake Casselman is based on an early chapter from The Eye of the World, first in the epic Wheel of Time book series by Robert Jordan. Brandon Sanderson, BYU profesor of literature and renowned author finished the book series after Jordan’s death.
The Wheel of 9 Production company was formed, with executive producer Hraefn Wulfson and coproducer Jennifer McGrew overseeing the film’s extensive preproduction. Our shops designed and crafted the costumes, sets, props, miniatures and practical effects. McGrews donated the workspace as well as funding to purchase the needed fabrics, leathers and costume materials plus lumber and hardware for set and prop construction. Staff, interns and friends in our creative community donated many hours to build the film’s physical assets. Dedicated, Utah-based filmmakers, actors fx artists and technical crew generously gave their time, expertise and equipment to this entire project! You can see the complete cast and crew credits on the film’s IMDB page here.
Our Flight From Shadow rough-cut debuted in February 2013 to excited audiences at Provo’s famous fantasy and speculative fiction literary conference, LTUE (Life, the Universe and Everything).
The final version of Flight from Shadow debuted on September 6, 2013 at Salt Lake Comic Con, along with …And The Wheel Turned, the behind-the-scenes documentary about the making of the film.
Both of these films are free for everyone to enjoy and share!
