Design Work and Behind the Scenes Images

This page has been hijacked for a while to post the pictures from the premiere night, a full news and events page will soon be up when the site gets a overhaul (soon).

Under the Premiere stuff you can still find the artwork and downloads.

Premiere night - September 6th, 2006. Belmont Cinema, Aberdeen, Scotland. Not a big cinema but a nice venue for the movie, we managed to pack the place with a sell out screening, so a huge thanks to everybody that turned up and made the night a success. All of the cast and crew were there, including the star of the movie, Mike Mitchell, who had came over from his home in Turkey for the event. After the movie we had a question and answer session with the audience, which carried on late into the night at the cinema bar. A big thanks must go to the management and staff of the Belmont Cinema for hosting the event and making it run so smoothly.
Cast Photo Line up of the main cast. Names can be found on the Cast page.		Lead Actor and Director The Planet's star, Mike Mitchell and creator Mark Stirton.

Audience 2 Another chance to see if you are one of the lucky people who booked your ticket early and didn't get turned away at the door.		The Branstons Father and son acting team Tim (tux in background) and Ashley Branston (white t shirt) seen here with friends and family.
Cobra Cannon Early design work for the main hero weapon: the King Cobra. The design changed substantially before producing the final prop for the film.		Battleship Grande One of the original designs for the main spaceship. This was way too shiny and large for what was meant to be a much repaired flying accident.
Hero Ship New ship design by CG artist, Kerwin Robertson. A much more eerie looking vessel, which shadows the designs for the weapons in the film. This image can be used for desktops. Size - 1024 x 768.		Late Hero Ship Production art for post attack spaceship. Composite artwork produced using the original DXF of the spaceship model and reworking it in Cinema 4D, post work in Adobe Photoshop.
Attack Ship An example of one of the many attack craft seen in the opening shots of the film. One basic model was produced then given numerous texture variations for different craft.		Attack - S Class Test render of the special demolition craft, or suicide ship. This ship only appears once in the film, funny that!
Technical Sheets A 2 page pdf set of technical sheets for all those model fans out there. Features main craft and attack ship details. To download, right click and save target as.		The e-pod An escape vehicle from the main ship. Built as a full scale prop used on location and a CG model for scenes while in flight.
Supreme Sacrifice Ashley Branston (Roberts), has a close shave with Mike Mitchell before appearing in front of the camera. Another hair victim was actor Graham Robertson (Williams), who normally has a full beard and hair like a Viking berserker.
Purple Star Award Unfortunately, on the first day of filming, Graham suffered severe sunburn on his bald pate. Within two days, one side of his pink noggin had noticeably swollen, but after a trip to the doc and some medication it eventually returned to normal.
Auction Winner - Roy Nicol During our Aberdeen premiere for "Removals" we held a fund raising auction. One of the prizes was a walk on part in our next film, the winner (paying a surprising amount for the experience) was Roy. Roy enjoyed his day in front of the camera and we hope he looks forward to seeing himself on the big screen.
