Breaking news. Writer, director, composer and actor Yianni Stamas who founded TAFT Club (the creative collaborating club) back in 1982, is now collaborating with TAFT Club Collaborators on the development of a web feature film entitled “TAFT Club Enter Another Reality”. It is a sci-fi satirical farce with cosmically mesmerizing songs about trying to save the world in three easy steps. One could also call this motion picture in development a member of the thrillumentary genre.
Thrillumentary – Entertainment Genre: we did an in person video interview with Judith O’Dea. O’Dea played Barbra Blair in the original 1969 version of “Night of the Living Dead” which notably was an extreme low budget movie and relative of thrillumentary.
While conducting the interview of Ms. O’Dea we became fascinated as she told us about the low budget filmmaking techniques used to make the feature film.
This inspired some of the collaborator artists of Taft Club to participate in a Thrillumentary cinema experiment which had to do with seeking a way to make motion pictures more efficiently as well as explore a new genre in motion pictures with songs like those from Johnny Rave and the TAFT Club Collaborators,
