Treasure Blind Update
|
|
November 2008
Just a quick update on the Treasure Blind movie - DVD sales are currently suspended due to the fact that the Treasure Blind
folks have successfully sold the movie to a distribution company. This means it will not be shown in theaters after all,
but the good news is that you should soon see this wonderful movie show up sometime early next year in various DVD retail
outlets. We will keep you posted!

Mark has composed, arranged, and recorded some music for a new movie called Treasure Blind. On October 8th, 2007 the world premier

Treasure Blind is a moving story, set in modern-day Tulsa, OK with a number
of flashbacks to the Civil War period. These Civil War scenes comprise about 20 minutes of this 2-hour, full-length film and for the most part are
"accompanied" by Mark's music including mountain dulcimer, banjo, and guitar, with Jennifer Downing playing fiddle. Mark plays some traditional "period" pieces,
as well as a few of his own that were composed just for this movie.
Here are a few sample MP3s of Mark's musical work for Treasure Blind:
Soldier's Joy (traditional) (939kb-MP3)

This independent movie was written, directed, and produced mostly in Tulsa, using local scenery and droves of volunteer talent on both sides of the camera.
We will keep you updated as we learn more about the distribution.
