Moving On – Baby Steps – Red Feline Chronicles

We’re very much committed to the new cycle with all its uncertainties and possibilities, nothing is set on stone although we are having some accomplishments, mostly small, maybe even tiny, but even if they are baby steps, we’re advancing.

Too many things have to be taken care of so the work never stops, but it is not as some years back when everything had some kind of rhythm and we went from one production to another with relative ease and things were planned out nicely, even if not all plans turned out ok. It’s different now and for many reasons.

Back in the old days, like 2013, May, to be precise, I posted about what was happening then in these words:

Well, those who live in the midwest know what a tornado looks like, am I wrong? If you live in Florida, you are familiar with hurricanes. Ok, I’m looking for a word that describes what’s happening in our world right now. Voragine, comes close. It all started some time ago when we found a link to Awesome Scream Queens and found that Amy was named Awesome Scream Queen of The Week. We couldn’t be more thrilled.

In addition, Amy was offered to work on a new film: Succubi. It’s been already announced:

We are very pleased to announce that the great American Scream Queen, Amy Hesketh, will be joining the cast in the new film, Succubi. Amy is well-known in the world-wide horror genre and you can connect with her official facebook page here https://www.facebook.com/amyhesketh Look out in the next issue of Awesome magazine for a special feature on Amy and much more.

Amy worked on a photo session for that film that never happened. The people that were organizing it just couldn’t pull it off so that was that, but it was a cool idea and the pictures Amy made with Jac were pretty cool.

What happened back then is that we worked on the last scenes and the released of Dead But Dreaming and worked on raising funds to produce Olalla.

Some issues were very similar to what is happening now, there were discussions about The Big Production Values movies vs the Smaller Red Feline films. We posted then:

Dead But Dreaming has become the most anticipated movie of the year… for our fans, of course. The world will learn about it in due time.

Falstaff: Like most others here I am a big fan of Red Feline and am enthusiastic over their new found “main stream” success. However, I recently revisited some of the Via Crucis De Camille productions, Seven Days on the Cross, and Aristo Crux – it is a shame that similar efforts may be abandoned while they focus on the main stream effort – if for no other reason than the number of productions will be sufficiently reduced.

Jac too is very fond of the work he did with Camille, but what he did then it was with the intention of what he’s doing now. The beautiful thing is that all that personal work, because it was very personal and intimate, gave birth to what is happening now. His heart, Amy’s heart are on the GIMP element in their movies and they are not backing out.

A point. When Jac was releasing the old movies we had the Red Feline Club where he would write the story behind the videos. It is the same now, except that he no longer writes the story behind the movies, the story IS in the movies. Like in Dead But Dreaming, or Maleficarum.

But I have to admit that there’s something very special about those past efforts. In fact, I know that Jac misses doing them once in a while. But our number of productions are not really reduced. All the previous work was done between 1996 and 2009, that’s a long time That’s about 1 1/2 per year. We’re producing 2 to 3 features a year now, that’s not a small number.

We’re almost at the end of May, 2025, and facing similar issues. Big Production Values films getting ready for release, smaller Red Feline movies in post and at least two big movies in pre production. And some discussions as well

wanttoknowmore Nice costumes for the Crux 4 so far. If I recall correctly, Simmonne is to be stripped after bring arrested. I hope there are some designed in tear seams in her dress. It is far to nice to be damaged in the event.
Also, from reading some of the plot outlines, a number of scenes of the films sound like they can be filmed indoors. Plans to do that? I would think that can lower overall production cost and mitigate weather issues somewhat.

The costumes will be preserved for future productions. They will fall off nicely once some adjustments are made around the shoulders.

As far as all the interior scenes, yes, that will help during bad weather. The sentencing of all four protagonist, for instance, will be interiors and with very few actors.

There are scenes in the temple of Isis and Anubis, like the scene when Decius, pretending to be Anubis, walks down from his altar to engage in sex with Paulina, an event is planned by the priestess Ide, who will pay with her life on the cross for that most serious of transgressions against a noble Roman woman.

I don’t mean it has to look like the picture above, that looks awesome but complicated, but it has to have some of those elements and that will cost some money and some location scouting time.

The first series of tortures The Warrior suffers after her capture are also interiors. Not to mention the poisoning of the Governor, the rape of the Slave, the beating of the Priestess and so on.

However, indoors shooting does not lower the costs of production. Set decoration can be at very high cost, specially if the films aremset in some specific time period, like the Roman Empire times. There’s also the issue of the proper location. We have an idea of what the temple should look like.

The crucifixions will be all outdoors but not as public as Seditiosa, very few people will be involved. There’s only one large scene where there will be a good number of people. That’s the opening scene for the Slave movie, when she’s capture and where all the characters for the four movies are introduced. Parts of that big scene will also be used at the beginning of the other three movies but only segments of it.

I’ll have more details about that when I get them and I will probably post them in the open forum.

Cruxlover24 Hi Margot, I have a question regarding the last movie you guys were shooting. Is it gonna be available soon?

If you mean the last movie we produced and it’s almost ready for release, that would be 69 Anneé Érotique. The other films we are producing, in the CruXbound Series, only one is complete, CruXbound IV – Sabina, with Simonne. The other three are having a hard time getting done for too many reaons to go over in this post. Maybe the next one.

However, we’re preparing two releases, 69 Anneé Érotique and Agent Honey Trap, which are at different stages of their post production right now, I will be announcing the release dates as soon as I get that info.

While we work on all those projects, we have some short films that we made when preparing to shoot Monxa Mala. Before the shooting of the movie the protagonists worked on some kind of rehearsals, which are very nice and sexy. We were showing them at our Patreon site and we thought maybe some people would like to buy them. With that in mind we just release one of those films, the one with Dani, who does a wonderful job of suffering stretched on the rack.
