So if nobody’s said it already, welcome to our site. It’s new, just like us, so it’s just a baby…but feel free to make yourself at home! I’m Redhouse’s Executive Producer and Director, Dan.

I decided to form this production company a few years ago when discussing the possibility of making our own movie with a few friends, and here we are three years later, actually doing it. It’s surreal actually.

The movie only has a working title: Jon the Baptist. No, it’s not about the character of biblical fame. It’s a story about coming home after being gone for a long time and rediscovering yourself in the process. I’m personally really excited about the story and can’t wait to shoot it!

We’ll be shooting in a small town in Ohio and are on track for a release in the second half of 2010. Currently, we’re in the pre-production stage, and are recruiting our department heads for the shoot. If you’re interested, you can check out our Classifieds section for available positions.

I plan to document the process here on this blog. I know that some people are curious about how a film is made from start to finish, so I’m going to try and track that a bit here; maybe lift the veil on the “magic” of moviemaking…at least a little. The truth is, this is our first time too. So maybe we can learn some stuff together, right?

Please keep checking back on the site. More information about Jon the Baptist (working title) will be available very soon.

Oh, and if you’d like to be involved in the production in any way, you can contact me here. or check out the Participate section of this site. I’d love to hear from you!
