Salute everyone!
 
In 2016, my brother and I started work on a short film set during the American Civil War. Since then, we've come a long way. In 2017, we received permission to shoot our film at a local state park and began the filming process. By the end of the year, we had a first draft put together and started looking for score composers and sound designers. In 2018, we found a score composer for the opening of the film, and found a sound designer for the whole thing. Now, we are excited to say that our short film releases tomorrow! ?

Very nice. I've always been interested in the civil war, my ancestors fought for the south and unfortunatley many of them were killed in the war.

 

These are just a few of my ancestors that fought in the war, I have more but don't have much research on them.

 

Jesse S. Crosby, 20th Georgia Infantry, July 15, 1861 - May 6, 1864 (my 3x grandfather, He survived the war but lost his leg at the Wilderness. He also fought at Antietam, Gettysburg, and Chickamauga and many other battles.)

 

Samuel T. McKenzie, 20th Georgia Infantry, July 15, 1861 - September 2, 1862 (Died from wounds received at Malvern Hill iirc.)

Joseph C. McKenzie, 20th Georgia Infantry, July 15, 1861 - October 1, 1863 (Can't remember how or if he died)

Henry C. McKenzie, 3rd Georgia Infantry, June 1, 1861 - January 28, 1863 (Died from wounds at Malvern Hill iirc.)

 

I think these two survived.

Charles R. Beddingfield, 38th Alabama Infantry

Samuel L. Cowart, Cobb's Legion

Congratulations on the release of the short. I can only imagine the effort that went into making this beautiful film, which relates history in an engaging and personal way.
