Back to the Beginning but Farther Ahead




Gratcast - Taking on Hollywood and telling the tale. show

Summary: Our first episode of Gratcast back from the road and home in Los Angeles. We recap where we've been and our plans for where we're going.  When we planned the 6-city mini tour to test audience reactions to our horror film The Perfect House we were prepared to add cities based on extremely positive reactions. But we never caught the momentum we were planning on when we decided on 6 specific cities.   The crucial part of the plan was centered around a several hundred seat screening at our first city and the hope that positive word of mouth would spread from there.  We had a great screening, but the room could only hold 50 or so, so we were behind the 8-ball right from the start. What we did discover during the mini tour was that the reaction from the audiences we did have were overwhelmingly positive. We took some knocks, but our confidence that we had something special still grew.   When we returned we had learned one very clear lesson. We had to find a way to get back out on the road inspiring fans and audiences to spread the word.
