Hollywood, CA (July 15, 2008)— Glimpse of Dreams Productions announced today the final selection of actors for Director David Branin’s (Shoot-Out, Honey, I’m Home) first and highly anticipated feature-length film NIGHT BEFORE THE WEDDING.

John Keating (Identity Theft, “Mind of Mencia”) plays William Shay, a kind, innocent and clean-cut man who’s at the center of the story.

Shay is joined by a group of colorful high school/college friends who congregate to celebrate his last night of freedom. Among them, Gregor Collins (The Society of Lost Causes, “Passions”) who plays Tom “Bronco” Patrick; Johnny Giordano (The Forest Demon) playing Bobby Demayo; theater actor Chad Davis as Rudy Giovanni; Kevin Deen (“Grey Matter”) as Norm Satyanaraya; James Anthony as Corey Sullivan; Frantz Durand as Demetrius Winfield; Zane Patterson as Jake Spees; and Kristen Sullivan (“The Drew Carey Show”) as Will’s beautiful and unaware bride Beth Jankowski.

Gregor Collins

Joining the ensemble cast as the perilous and stunning enticers are newcomer Sarah Ronaghi (“Nip/Tuck”), embracing the role of Melissa Mercury and adult entertainer La’Rin Lane as herself. “The decision to cast a real life porn star was very much debated, but I wanted the film to have a true sense of authenticity and La’Rin couldn’t have been a better choice.” Said Branin, who also wrote the film’s script.

The film also features a special cameo appearance by platinum selling rapper Mopreme Shakur.

“I’m very proud of the cast we’ve assembled. Each and everyone of them is extremely talented and brings exceptionalism to the characters I’ve created. I’m looking forward to an exciting filming process.” concluded Branin.

NIGHT BEFORE THE WEDDING starts filming this Summer and will be released on the 2009 Film Festival Circuit, theatrically in Los Angeles, and on DVD.

Filmmaker David Branin to start production of sexy new film

FOR IMMEDIATE DISTRIBUTION

Filmmaker David Branin to start production of sexy new film
NIGHT BEFORE THE WEDDING
Introduces Pre-Order DVD Initiative


Hollywood, CA (June 12th , 2008)—Everyone—male or female—has either experienced first-hand or heard a crazy bachelor party story. For men, it is one of the marks of being a man. And just as a woman grows up with that fantasy of exactly how their wedding will look, down to the most intimate of details, men do the same with their bachelor party. That is the backdrop for filmmaker David Branin’s upcoming feature film NIGHT BEFORE THE WEDDING. The film is scheduled to begin shooting this summer.

The idea for NIGHT BEFORE THE WEDDING was hatched when Branin was approached by a friend to shoot an HD short in one location in one day. With his mind turning, and also wanting to work with several actor friends, Branin put the pieces together and pitched a bachelor party story. But because of the size and scale of the idea it wasn’t feasible to shoot it in one day. Believing he had something special, Branin pressed on, and in three weeks manifested a first draft not for a short film, but a feature film.

The film while comedic by nature, ultimately deals with the serious, life-changing moral dilemmas even the most straight-laced of us must face during this night. Both the comedy and the drama of the film hit home with equal truth and weight. The movie will be one men can watch with a knowing eye and women can have a truthful, firsthand account of what really takes place at a bachelor party.

NIGHT BEFORE THE WEDDING will be distributed on the 2009 Film Festival Circuit, theatrically in Los Angeles, and on DVD. Audiences have the chance to get their name in the film’s credits through a pre-order initiative through the film’s website. A donation of $15 allows them to Pre-Order the DVD and simultaneously enhance the film’s budget. In return, their name will appear on the film’s credits and on the official website.

HollyShorts Film Festival - Behind the Shorts - Filmmaker David Branin Featured

We just received this video link from the folks over at HollyShorts. It is a cool recap of last year's festival where "Honey, I'm Home" was fortunate enough to receive an Audience Choice Award.

This video was filmed and edited by Daniel Mercaldi and is hosted by Damon Campbell. Cannot emphasize enough how impressed we are with this highlight video. It really captures the overall spirit and vibe that I remember from attending the fest.

It's great to see "Honey, I'm Home" represented in the video. Not only is there a small clip from the film in the video, there are also words from Director David Branin and later from Actress Karen Worden.

Also look for words from Festival Directors Daniel Sol and Theo Dumont Others include Writer Elliott Owen, Director Julian West, Actor Joe Lemieux, Director Justin Liberman, Host Viviana Vigil, Producer/Actor Chris Rice, Director Alex Ferrari, Director Chris Wilson, and Hip Hop Legend Biz Markie.

Hope you enjoy the inside peek at the festival as much as we do.
