Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter - Trailer

As some of you may remember, I got to work as an extra on this film in the Spring of 2011 down in Covington, Louisiana. It was a really cool experience. Eye opening as well, for I will never again look at a movie without remembering how much work actually goes into each shot. My time working on the film was about a week, yet the screen time of those shots will probably be something like fifteen to twenty minutes, if that. They were long days too. Every morning we would be on set before sunrise and usually wouldn't be back at the hotel until around eight that night, which, even when being treated as well as we were, is exhausting.

Now, of course, I can't wait to see the results of that work, though I have to admit, the historian in me may cringe a few times while watching it.  Then again, if its entertaining and gets people somewhat interested in history I'm all for it.  Plus I love being able to say I worked on the same set as Tim Burton.
