A brand new article on Tales from Black Manor on Horror Fuel just landed! We talk about how we made the series during the pandemic as well as some of the inspiration for the film! We also do a little interview about how we’d love to make a horror film set in the Harry Potter Universe.
We are SO excited to announce our next project! A Brand New Series called TALES FROM BLACK MANOR. It’s a world we’ve been excited about for a while now and we’re so thrilled to finally start to share it!
After the 2020 Pandemic put our plans on hold for our third Feature Film, we went to work on this instead. It’s a new world full of dark legends.
Tales from Black Manor allowed us to work with a few of our favorite collaborators again including James Brinkley who we previously worked with on our award winning shorts: The Umbrella Factory, Jack the Ripper, and Around the World in 80 Days.
We’re also thrilled to work with Paul Happanemi again! Paul brought the characters of Francisco Winchester and Jungle Jim to life in our feature films, The West and the Ruthless and Danger! Danger!
We also had a chance to work with some incredibly talented new voice actors as well, including Donnla Hughes, Briony Rawle and Holly Standbrook.

Danger! Danger! is the second feature film from Nick + Lexie and is a love letter to the Spielberg movies of the 1980s like Indiana Jones, The Goonies, and Back to the Future, the very films that made them want to be filmmakers in the first place. The film stars Benedict Mazurek, Paul Haapaniemi, Angela Smeraldi, Alexandra Keller, with Matt Boone and Alexander Harris.

Check out this Series Presentation pitch we worked on for a project called ULTRA!
It came out pretty cool for a globe-hopping espionage thriller taking place in 3 different time periods.
Along with the 25 Commercials Spots we worked on this fall (and top secret projects we’re not allowed to share just yet) we also cut this super fun car spot concept. We’ve always wanted to direct one of those fast paced car commercials. Here’s our take on it!
Our final Location Scouting trip of the year was to the Grand Canyon. No wonder people have been calling this one of the Seven Wonders of the World. It’s really that awe inspiring. Absolutely stunning.
Our second location scouting adventure was at Red Rock! It’s always exciting to start envisioning where the story can be told! And when that involves caves and amazing landscapes, we’re even more excited!
Over the summer we had the amazing opportunity to pitch a PILOT for a series. It was a really exciting project to work on. During the course of the project we also did some location scouting and of course, it takes place in the desert just like our last two feature films!
Check out these shots of the Imperial Dunes! This is also the location of Tatooine in Return of the Jedi.

We are SO excited to have Danger! Danger! grab those Cthulhu laurels as well!
