Heavy Metal Dungeon

I recently shot this scene of a fake public access MTV-esque show called Heavy Metal Dungeon which is being edited by Joe Sherlock that will go into a movie for Warlock Video.  The background was just dumpster rescued bits of cardboard duct taped together and then painted with a fake brick wall pattern using a sponge.  Then I added all of the graffiti using spray paint and paint markers.  Bits of the show's hostess' costume, Heavy Metal Kitty, was made at the last second using Velcro tape and hot-glue.   All in all, I think it came out pretty damn good.

Here is a sneak peek:

Inspiration: A Replica of the Entire M*A*S*H Set in a Backyard

Somebody has way too much free time on their hands.

Someone REALLY loves the classic TV series M*A*S*H and has built an entire replica inside and out of the show's sets.  No detail was spared including replica sign posts, props, and even costume replicas. 

The one thing you should take note of is that this project proves that nothing is impossible.  If you are making a indie film and need a elaborate set then think of using your very own backyard.  It's cheaper then renting a warehouse or campgrounds for a few weeks.

I wonder if one day we will see a fan-made web series using this backyard set-up.
