PRODUCTION NOTES The filming of PERSEPHONE will rely on featuring some of the most incredible locations in the Hudson Valley. For the Mount Olympus mansion and gardens, we will film at the exquisite Blithewood Mansion and Italian Garden on the Bard College campus in Annandale on Hudson. For the underworld, we will film at an estate in the Hudson Valley that happens to be the headquarters for the New York City Halloween Parade. The Hudson River, which is featured prominently as the River Styx, will be used in a unique fashion to ferry Persephone between the two worlds she inhabits. During summer time, when she steals away from Mount Olympus with her father, she is ferried across in a 1964 red convertible. When she is returned to Mount Olympus in the dead of winter, she is brought back across the river on a turn of the century iceboat. BUDGET This is a very ambitious film with incredible support. Some of the most respected professionals in the film industry are providing expert skills—from camera operator services to video special effects and Da Vinci high-end post-production color grading. Our limited budget can only cover part of the necessary expenses including production insurance, location rentals, catering, props, equipment and select cast and crew salaries. Part I of PERSEPHONE is in the can.
