In NYC this week

Checking out the now officially named Killing Them Safely in New York so far. We are preparing it for some fall submissions. I know we promised a trailer and website months ago, but you have to make sure you do the press right! Everyone stay posted, I am just thrilled about how everything has gone thus far.

Read today's Columbia Tribune

Hey everyone,
If you get a chance, read today's Columbia Daily Tribune. Reporter Brennan David wrote a piece about the film, which has been officially titled Killing Them Safely. The first cut will be completed at the end of this month, so we are getting close to having a finished product. Thanks for all your support!

Bay City

The Bay City Times did an interview with me to discuss the movie. Bay City, Michigan, is where Brett Elder, a fifteen year old, was tragically killed after being tasered by police. He was tasered because he was commanded to sit on a couch during a disturbance, sat down on the couch, but then stood back up. The officer claimed he took a "combative stance" and that justified tasering Brett. Brett's one year anniversary just passed, so everyone keep him in your thoughts. To find the article, search Bay City Times on google, or follow me on Twitter @NickBerardini where I will be retweeting the link from yesterday.

Status Update

Hello fans!

We are making great strides in post-production. We have a terrific editor from New Jersey named Brien Lee who is currently organizing footage, remixing the audio, and making awesome graphics. Our web designer, Jason Goldstein, is putting together a remarkable site that everyone will be able to visit soon. Right now, we are waiting for some video to get shipped in for our trailer, and then as soon as we get that cut, we are going to launch the official site. I cannot express how pleased I am with our progress so far, and I truly believe this film will be a groundbreaking project that brings tasers and the intellectual debate over them into mainstream America. We also will be starting a fan page on facebook that everyone can follow. Stay tuned, as I will be updating more frequently now since we are getting closer to having the first cut of the film done.

Official Website Up Soon

The official website for the film was designed on Saturday. We are going to launch the site and the official trailer concurrently, so that everyone can get a glimpse of what took us so long to finish!

WE'RE BACK!

To everyone who was following Taserfilm:

Due to the highly controversial nature of tasers, I decided to shut down this blog for the past few months while we finished shooting our film. After spending time in Louisiana in late September, I decided that it would be in the best interest of the safety of my crew to not publicize what we were doing until we could finish shooting. It also was in the best interest of my film, because we did not want people to try to sabotage the project. After interviewing at Taser International last Friday, we have officially wrapped the production, and have already begun editing. Within the next few weeks, the official movie site will be posted, as well as a Facebook page. Follow the film on Twitter @Taserfilm and on this blog to get all the latest updates. I am so excited to be writing on the blog again, and thank you all so much for your support!

Sincerely,

Nick Berardini

Director/Producer
