Elsie Hooper - Motion Picture Project

Motion Picture Project

In August 2003, only months after Elsie Hooper's debut online and in the Massachusetts Daily Collegian, Krzykowski was contacted by producers Troy Neighbors and Steve Traxler from Impact Entertainment in Hollywood, California, wishing to produce a feature length, live-action motion picture of the serialized comic strip. Nearly a year later, the project had moved away from Impact Entertainment and into new hands. Since 2003, Elsie Hooper has traded hands from at least six producers and numerous motion picture studios.

The project is currently with White Rock Lake Productions and The Artists & Directors Cooperative in Hollywood, CA. It has been announced that the Aaron Sims Company will be handling the special creature effects for the villainous Shadowmen in Elsie Hooper. Krzykowski and affiliated filmmakers on the Elsie Hooper project remain notoriously tight-lipped about the production and its evolution as a motion picture in development.

Famous quotes containing the words motion picture, motion, picture and/or project:

    “The motion picture is like a picture of a lady in a half- piece bathing suit. If she wore a few more clothes, you might be intrigued. If she wore no clothes at all, you might be shocked. But the way it is, you are occupied with noticing that her knees are too bony and that her toenails are too large. The modern film tries too hard to be real. Its techniques of illusion are so perfect that it requires no contribution from the audience but a mouthful of popcorn.”
    —Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)

    “till disproportion’d sin
    Jarr’d against natures chime, and with harsh din
    Broke the fair musick that all creatures made
    To their great Lord, whose love their motion sway’d
    In perfect Diapason, whilst they stood
    In first obedience, and their state of good.”
    —John Milton (1608–1674)

    “She sang a song that sounds like life; I mean it was sad. Délira knew no other types of songs. She didn’t sing loud, and the song had no words. It was sung with closed lips and it stayed down in one’s throat.... Life is what taught them, these Negresses, to sing as if they were choking back sobs. It is a song that always ends with a beginning anew because this song is the picture of misery, and tell me, does misery ever end?”
    —Jacques Roumain (1907–1945)

    “Oh Death he is a little man,
    And he goes from do’ to do’ ...”
    —Federal Writers’ Project Of The Wor, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
