FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
Probell Films launches:
LOS ANGELES, CA, December 12, 2008 – Probell Films is an independent production company formed by Patrick O’Bell that specializes in horror and suspense films. Patrick has over 10 years work experience in various aspects of production, including Director of Photography, Set Dresser and Actor. Patrick is now concentrating his talents on Directing and Writing feature length films. He has studied acting for film and theater with highly regarded teachers, such as, Eric Morris and Steve Easton. In addition to this he was a Fine Arts Major, where he dabbled in still photography, music and drawing.
Patrick appoints Joseph Garcia and Maureen “Mo” Whelan as producers. Joseph has over 10 years experience in IT and as a Computer Systems Manager. He also studied acting with Eric Morris and Fran Montano. In addition, he has studied film editing and was a Music Major. Mo comes to Probell Films with over 13 years experience in animation and post production. She is currently in charge of film acquisitions at AWNtv.com, an animated short film video portal. She is also an occasional correspondent for the horror/comedy magazine Girls and Corpses Magazine. The diverse work experience of the trio brings creative yet effective results in a time efficient manner. They work well as a team and can resolve issues quickly. No matter what the project needs, they’ll figure it out and get it done.
Probell Films is equipped with an onsite non-linear editing system with compositing capabilities, and additional digital video equipment. This digital intermediate pipeline was built to meet Probell Films digital video needs. Using a digital format is more convenient for the trio because they can shoot on the fly and wrap a scene within a day. Probell also has a large pool of freelance artists, studio contacts and acting talent to choose from for completing projects. These bonuses are always useful for our ever changing independent film industry. Probell Films was created out of love for the classic thriller flick, and the trio chooses talent who are also lovers of the same genre.
Probell Films will be launching their first completed film titled “Client 14” at the beginning of 2009 and starting pre-production on two more horror themed films set to be released by 2010. “Client 14” is about a slew of beautiful escorts who are brutally murdered in a local large city. Detectives are baffled by the lack of physical evidence or motive of the unseen Killer. The events soon traumatize a Private Investigator as he is unable to protect the escorts he befriends. Shot throughout Southern California, the film uses very little artificial lighting to create a very naturalistic, yet artsy look.
