What We’ve Been Up To!

Posted on April 1st, by Micah Moore in Beat Down Boogie, behind the scenes, filmmaking tips, Mario Warfare.


Several fans of Mario Warfare have asked us about our production schedule for upcoming Mario Warfare episodes. I wanted to take a second to share our insight on the film-making process. It’s a long process filled with lots of effort. Even for Hollywood films with a 100 million dollars, and 100′s of crew members working full time, it can take years to finish a film. We have like, 3 crew and work around our day jobs, lol. Here’s what we’ve … Read the rest

The Prop Weapons of Mario Warfare

Posted on January 2nd, by Micah Moore in filmmaking tips, Mario Warfare.


I have to admit, bashing each other with sledge hammers in Mario Warfare was every bit as fun as it seemed. Of course, this is because the realistic-looking sledgehammers were actually safe prop weapons made by http://www.specter-studios.com

When we started making action movies, we did a lot of stuff wrong. For one thing, we frequently hurt each other during fight scenes. At the time, we though really hitting each other would make our scenes more realistic. But it was very … Read the rest

Mario Warfare – Sneak Peek 2

Posted on December 23rd, by Micah Moore in Mario Warfare.

For us, screen fights are the most fun we have as filmmakers.  We’ve been thinking a lot about the fights in Mario Warfare.  For some fights we want to riff on the action movies that we love.  For other fights we want to delve into our own creativity.  Above all else, we want to push ourselves a little further to try stunts and weapons that we’ve never used before.  In the world of Mario Warfare, we’ll be using a lot … Read the rest

THE TIME-TRAVELING MEMORIES OF BRIAN LEE (Ghost, Toad, Drunken Master):

It was the best of times, it was the…wait. No, it was pretty much an epic adventure the entire way through. Ever since my first D*C, I’ve looked forward to Labor Day weekend like a 5 year old waiting for Christmas. For 5 days my extended family consists of almost 40k geeks, nerds, fan bois/grrrls, Trekkies, wookies, and Storm Troopers. And just like family, I don’t have to like all … Read the rest
