Earth2World Gets Their Freak On!

The Earth2World production team has partnered with the Portland film community to produce seven short teaser videos for a charity fundraiser event that will take place on 10/30 called the PDX Freak Show. The spots featured costumed “freaks” making appearances at several local businesses, including Widmer Brothers Brewing, New Deal Distillery and the Freakybuttrue Peculiarium (truly a gem of a shop – how did we not know of this place before?!). The first of the four spots were filmed on Tuesday 9/14 with the remainder on the schedule for Sunday 9/18. E2W directors Jacqueline Gault and Martin Vavra co-directed the spots with DP Robert Pallotta. We couldn’t be more proud of the way the team worked together on a tight schedule (4 company moves in 12 hours!), kept their cool under pressure, and walked away with giant smiles on their faces! We’ll post the videos here in the next few days.
