Production
The film was shot both in Boulder, Colorado, and in Colorado state.[1] Filming was initially slated for May and June 2011.[2] According to the film's producer Ersoz, Boulder was chosen because it is "a beautiful, under-photographed place" and that "No one has ever recognized its gothic possibilities in a film before".[3] Permits were sought for locations in Boulder including the University of Colorado campus.[4] Ersoz said that McDowell would bring "a magical, wizard-like quality and will bring that essence to the film." She also said that Cain had "a terrific screen presence" and that he would "bring the right mix of strength and vulnerability" to the role.[1]
The film was set, filmed and produced in Boulder, and was set to highlight Boulder and use its local talent. Ersoz said that when outside production companies and productions are in Boulder they show a "stereotyping of Boulder that is ‘People's Republic-ish ... They are on the Pearl Street Mall, and they make references to Birkenstocks and wheat grass and whatever is crunchy liberal."[4] She said that she feels the city has a "welcoming and threatening" presence and that she wanted to milk the "Gothic presence that hangs over the city", with the city being a "character in the film."[4] Ersoz and her production company Black Wing are both based in Boulder, and in keeping with the Boulder promotion, Boulder actress Kristin Keating and Denver based Kevin Sean Ryan are both in the film. Keating said that "I think Meryem is really making a push to make this [Colorado] a bigger market", with Ryan adding "the movie's star power will 'put Colorado on the map'".[4]
The film was initially declared as to be released in 3D,[5] though confusion arose as it was reported that it was to be shot fully in 3D,[6] as well as mostly in 2D with a plan to film one of the major scenes in 3D.[7] Filming was scheduled from 23 May 2011 to 29 June, with shooting beginning in Boulder in May 2011.[8]
The film was based on an original screenplay by Mark Daniels.[4]
