Humanitarian Filmmaking: Caleb Slain’s Welcome to the End of the World

Amid all the political scandals, it’s always refreshing to turn our attention elsewhere… perhaps  to the end of the world…

In the Autumn of 2013, Caleb Slain was one of three filmmakers recruited to explore the work of a team helping children in some of the most ignored area of the globe. He and cinematographer Chad Terpstra ventured out into the Indian state of “Nagaland,” one of the most remote regions of the eastern Himalayas to learn about it’s people, the health conditions of the children, and a group called “Vitamin Angels”.

There is good out there.

Kevin Bachar’s Edison’s Ghosts Wins the 2018 ScreenCraft Action/Thriller Screenplay Competition

This February, the winners for the 2018 ScreenCraft Action/Thriller Screenplay competition were announced. Selected from roughly 800 entries, Edison’s Ghost by our very own Kevin Bachar was named the winner.

In Edison’s Ghost, after the mysterious death of his wife, young infamous inventor, Thomas Edison, teams up with renowned magician, Harry Houdini, to uncover the truth. Inspired by true events, the two men use their diametric skill sets to reveal diabolical forces at play. The judges were impressed with the slick confident writing and fun read akin to recent historical action films such as Sherlock Holmes.

In addition to the ScreenCraft team, the judges included: Belles Avery of Apelles Entertainment (The Meg); Jeannette Francis of Bad Robot (Star Trek, Cloverfield); Matthew Leonetti (Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle, Spider-Man: Homecoming, and The Equalizer); Andrew Bergamo (Deadpool, Logan, Constantine, and The X-Men films); and the legendary screenwriter Steven E. de Souza, (Die Hard, 48 Hrs., Commando and Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life).

Both the Grand Prize winner, Bachar, and runner-up, Travis Opgenorth, will each receive cash prizes and have their material circulated to ScreenCraft’s network of agents, managers, and producers.

That’s not all for Kevin. His other script Blood Relative is casting with John Poliquin directing. Mitchell Peck optioned Kevin’s Page Award finalist Tundra Kill and his My Boy Friend the App, which won Final Draft Big Break, is a finalist for Stage 32 National Lampoon Search for Comedy Gold.
