The Artemis Rising Book Trailer

In September 2009 we wrapped prin­ci­pal film­ing on a book trailer for Artemis Rising. Enjoy!

Axiom Shift Productions Director Bill Thoma and I first con­ceived of a book trailer for my novel Artemis Rising in late August 2009. It’s been a wild ride and an amaz­ing jour­ney since then. We were priv­i­leged in our cast and crew on this project, and the col­lec­tive tal­ent of this group still sur­prises me.

We wanted to give the essence of some of the key scenes in the book, and in order to do that we did some loca­tion scout­ing in Vancouver, WA, Portland, OR, and Cannon Beach, OR. The film­ing we did at the beach was my favorite, as it was a beau­ti­ful day, and we did some tech­ni­cally chal­leng­ing shots for a fight scene and cliff-​​hanging. I may have a film degree but I’ve never had more fun work­ing on a film project than I did the week­end of prin­ci­pal film­ing on the Artemis Rising book trailer. It was amaz­ing to watch my char­ac­ters come to life before my eyes!

Without fur­ther ado, I’m pleased to share the fruits of our labor at long last:
