The Cemetery 3

Overview

After a break of almost two years, the Cemetery series reaches its third installment. The most extensive and technically draining movie of the series has arrived in May 2004.

2 Bad Design is bringing you more action, more laughter and more insane fights. Now you can download the full un-cut version! More than twenty minutes of Cemetery action!

All the cast is back, plus some new fresh faces that help the ever-increasing action. More special effects including a Matrix-style backflip that took more than three days to prep and two days to shoot correctly.

The principal photography for this movie took about three months, more than any other 2 Bad Design project. The movie was screened a whole week at a local Cinerama, gathering about a thousand viewers and a small colum in a local newspaper. In the following weeks, a DVD version of the movie will be released in local video renting stores. Lately I managed to upload it and make it available to anyone.

On this project, the 2 Bad Design team almost doubled. We needed lots of help, especially on the special effects scenes, including some CGI titles, so we decided to recruit some more members. Following great collaborations with everyone, and a superb movie experience, the movie production team is now comprised of more than 15 full-time members.

The Cemetery 3 is the first 2 Bad Design movie that actually features costumes. Besides make-up we used a specially created "Scary Movie/Scream" costume complete with blood effects.

Special locations were used in the creating of the right mood for specific scenes. One of these locations is Club S, located in downtown Timisoara. We got permission to shoot there during a wednesday night.

The football team Politehnica AEK issued 2 Bad Design a permit to shoot their empty football stadium for the ending credits.

Also, with the production of The Cemetery 3, we employed a professional martial-arts sensei to coreograph the elaborate fight scenes. Although the cast had to waste about a week of shooting time to train for the complicated moves, the end-result is far better than any other fight scenes captured by us on film.

Photography was done with three Sony MiniDV cameras. On-set sound gathering was done using a DAT machine and a boom microphone. The movie runs for about twenty minutes and was edited on a Pentium 4 machine with an ATi Radeon 9800 video card, 1 GB of DDRAM and Pinnacle Studio DV equipment.

2 Bad Design will issue a new DVD version of the movie in July 2004 available for rent or purchase. The DVD authoring was done by our in-house tehnician and includes never-before-seen graphics. Also, as special features, we have included the Cemetery 1 and 2, the making of the Cemetery, a teaser trailer for the Cemetery 4 and a few production photos.

Another fine plus to the Cemetery 3 are the new CGI titles. The took more than three days to design and another day to render, they showcase the fine craftsmanship of our graphics department.
