We would like to give an extra big THANK YOU to all those who invested in and donated to the post-production of our feature film Shackled. Thank you for believing in our company and the film.

Shackled Teaser
Tuesday, March 30th, 2010Hi folks,
We’re pleased to be able to bring you the first teaser footage of Shackled!
This is primarily for cast and crew, so we’ve left the plot somewhat vague for now.
Music is ‘Until Tomorrow’ by Martin Brannigan; used with permission.
‘Shackled’ is on IMDB
Monday, March 8th, 2010We are delighted to announce that Shackled has been awarded its own IMDB page. View it here: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1603379/
Not everyone involved in making the film has been added as we were unsure of who had previous listings and who didn’t. You may want to correct individual credits if you already have an account or you can add yourself by using the ‘update data’ option. If you don’t have an account, you can easily create one which will allow you to add yourself.
If you have any questions about how to do any of this, or what exactly you should list yourself as, then let us know!
Also, once you have an account you can vote on the film (and The Hollow Girl if you’re feeling generous!) which may help it in the festival circuit!
Thanks to Sara for helping out with the set up.
