What’s New?

February 11th, 2008 : by Will Moore

Grassroots baby! We need to work on building an audience for the film - so whenever you get a chance, tell a friend about the Cowboy Smoke website. The postcards on this site are great way to invite a friend to sign up for the newsletter.
We will be holding one more private screening on Saturday February 16th at 4pm. If you did not get to attend the first screening please email me at will@bandwagonfilms.com and put in the subject line “WANT TO ATTEND SCREENING”. In addition to this please note in the body of the email the number of guests you would like to bring. I will respond with a confirmation and the location of the screening.
This screening should be fun. We are giving out tickets on the local radio station in order to create a test audience. After the screening those in the test audience, along with any others that would like to stay, will answer questions about the movie.
Questions like:
What did you like about the film? Not like about the film? Who was your favorite character? Least favorite character? Would you tell others about this film? Who would you tell?
Answers to these questions will help us gain a better understanding of who our audience is.
In addition to this I have been compiling a list of distributors I think would do a good job distributing Cowboy Smoke. This is due to the fact that there are literally 100’s of distributors out there and by making a list I will be able to focus on the 30-40 distributors that I fell are a good match.
I have also been working on the DVD itself - the DVD menu, DVD artwork, behind-the-scenes segments, and a new trailer. I really wanted to do a commentary track but I think that might have to come later. Right now I just want to get the DVD ready to ship out – I am planning on sending the final packaged DVD to producer’s reps (basically sales reps), agents, and managers. These are people that will help us sell the film.

    I was in one of the last seens filmed at the neon moon bar. I was only in the seen for about fifteen seconds. Did I end up on the cutting room floor? I would like to see one of the screenings any way. Looking forward to more of your work down here in Texas. Thanks. Bill Vincent.

    I would like to see the 2nd screening but it might be difficult to make it at that time and day. I am anxious to view the DVD as soon as you get it completed. I was a border patrol officer for just a short scene ….just checking to see if it was still in the movie. Please, if possible, let me know. Again, this movie has got to be GREAT since Will Moore had top control over it. I will also be thrilled to advertise it in my place of business.
