Everything, Almost Wraps!!!

WE DID IT!!! A huge THANK YOU to the cast and crew for such an AWESOME shoot and to all of YOU who have supported us on this incredible journey!!! Day 1 found us battling freezing temperatures and biting winds up on the high bluff but we endured and captured amazing shots!!! Day 2 found us in better conditions down on the beach where we worked like crazy and laughed ourselves silly! Our song of the day was Jack Sparrow featuring Michael Bolton! Thank you to The Lonely Island for such an inspiring song which provided endless merriment to our cast and crew…I refuse to admit how many times this song was played! ;) The shots were GORGEOUS thanks to our amazing director Alex O. Gaynor whose work is just breathtakingly oh so beautiful! The performances by our lead actors Jeannie Bolét and Brahm Gallagher were outstanding! Truly a joy to watch!!! A massive thank you to our small but mighty crew Jeremy Rush and Adam Douglass who walked countless miles and braved the elements…including a “bag of ticks”! (A brave soul you are Jeremy!) And last but not least…THANK YOU to all our Kickstarter supporters and our dear friends and family who have showered us with love and support along the way! We could not have done it without you!!! With a lot of heart and a lot of hard work, the Everything, Almost team has captured something truly special!!! We can not wait to share it with you all!!! Updates on post production soon to follow! Again, from the bottom of my heart… MUCH L♥VE AND THANKS!!!

Co-Producing EVERYTHING, ALMOST

Argon Entertainment is thrilled to be co-producing with Le Petit Couer Films on the short film EVERYTHING, ALMOST, a narrative short film written by Jeannie Bolét and directed by Alex O. Gaynor (Wid Winner & the Slipstream).

Set along the English coast, EVERYTHING, ALMOST is about love and letting go of it when it’s only potential is to send you into a downward spiral, despite how much you want it to work.  The story is inspired by Bolét’s feature length screenplay, BEARCAT, a finalist in 2010′s Slamdance festival and Writemovies Screenwriting contest.

EVERYTHING, ALMOST: a heartbreaking tale of a girl, a guy, and a beta fish embarking on a day trip that will ultimately mark the end of an era and a love that was just never meant to be.

Argon is excited to be working with such a talented and passionate team of collaborators.  Casting and production updates soon to follow!  Thank you for joining us on our first project!

ARGONENT

Argon Entertainment is Launched!!!

Susane E. Lee is thrilled to launch Argon Entertainment! After watching the documentary I AM and its segment on how the noble gas Argon connects us all, Susane knew immediately that she had found the perfect name for her production company. Not only was Argon the first noble gas to be discovered, it is an essential non-reactive agent that is used to keep light bulbs burning bright and metals binding strong. Taking Argon’s properties to heart, Argon Entertainment chooses to be a necessary and noble force in the entertainment industry that sheds light on important subject matters, bringing diverse and compelling stories to the world. It is Argon’s greatest desire to engage your heart, mind, and soul through the powerful art of storytelling covering a span of genres.

* A very special thank you to Richie Quinto for his work on developing Argon Entertainment’s simple yet mighty logo.
