Frequency Binge Watch event at Motorco Music Hall


We are asking the fans to invite people out to watch the series with creators and cast.
We will have trivia, and some fun in between moments to make this a fun event.

The original series was inspired by the NC anti-lgbt Amendment One in 2012.
KV Works wanted to make NC the gay filmmaking capitol of the south.

With well over 4 MILLION views I think we succeeded!



Go like Motorco on FB !

Frequency Subscribe Summer 2014

It is summer 2014 and we are busy busy busy putting together a feature length film of our series Frequency.

Why a film?
NCGLFF needed another title so we have accepted this CRAZY challenge.

Most feature films are edited over a year. We are tying to do it in a month. I know, crazy right? I guess kicking cancer's a$$ make anything feel possible.



Let us know you are watching by subscribing to your YOUTUBE channel KVWORKS1 


CHEERS!

Listing Frequency

The week started out by posting part 2 of "Just Friends."

Those of you who are looking for extra sauce with their helping of Frequency will note that parts 1,2, 3 & 4 are about being "Just Friends"

What will a friend do for you when you ask for assistance?
Sometimes a friend is just there because they know you need a friend.
Friends are willing to pitch in and help you find something you may have lost.
Whatever a friend needs. EP 02 theme is "Just Friends"

This week also brought a few new friends sharing the Frequency web series.

We posted our Youtube KVWORKS1 channel to  One More Lesbian  as well as Slebisode. (search  "frequency") These web series aggregating sites have been kind enough to post our project and share with their visitors.

KV Works welcomes the newest viewers and fans for Frequency.
I want to get feedback from those who want to know more.
drop us a note at  kvworks "at" me.com

Just Friends part 2 Frequency

After a start and a stop and a restart. Episode 2 part 2 is up.
Don't be daunted by the 8 minute run time. It goes by really fast.
You might even watch it again.


The best part of the episode for me is the EMT's assessment and Travis's assessment.
Give me a shout on twitter if you agree with the assessments

Frecuencia de nuevo año

With the New Year many people will feel compelled to make life changes.

2012
Our life change came from last year's resolution. A simple resolution to meet more actors and make another film.
By April. we were fully committed to producing Intersect.
April 2012 Production still Intersect ep 4

By May we decided to have the short film Intersect become Episode 4 of a larger piece. That larger piece is Frequency.
In November we posted Episode 01 and December brought Episode 02.







2013
We hope you will resolve to watch more independently produced films/webseries, like Frequency.
Frequency will roll out at least ten episodes this year. (maybe more)


KV Works & Team Frequency resolves to make more positive portrayals of lesbians in media.
With the passing of NC's Amendment  1, an anti-gay marriage amendment, KV Works is doing our part to make NC more LGBT friendly. What better to way to do it than making positive art of the lgbt community.
Deanna & Claire 2012
Claire & Deanna 2012



We hope you will find our effort smart, funny, touching, exciting and sensual - But not in a creepy way.



What you will NOT find in Frequency:
psychotic lesbian killers
depressed suicidal lgbt characters
smarmy male characters
stereotyping of minorities
predictable plot lines

What you WILL find in Frequency:
positive portrayal of a dentist
graphic violence
adult language
mature themes
sexual situations
alcohol & drug use





KV Works hope to hear from new subscribers followers and fans in 2013.
Like our KVWorks Facebook page

Let's join in the effort to create a positive image of LGBT community.

Watch more lesbian sci-fi!

Frequency EMT help

This weekend Frequency had a quick pick up scene in one of the subplots.

We had help from a very eager new comer. She played dead almost as well as Lisa Gagnon.
Lauren will likely appear among the mostly living in a later episode. <wink>

Day players are the best!

Tracy Walker was super great with the actual lines. Who knew so much talent was lurking in Durham.
Our Dale Shelley character was given more gruff lines for this scene. What do expect from the EMT in charge?

Thanks for Ish's great eye and bucket of blood.
What is a scene with an EMT without blood.

The corpse sits up so that we don't cause an accident. I love the look see review


We had a city police officer wave as we worked on the side walk of a busy road through downtown. I'm glad our little gorilla'ed scene didn't get shut down.


On another note about Episode 1 - Music is still being thorny. Tonight there is a jam session to create a few new grooves just for the web series.

I'll let PK post who is part of the jam session.

I am so excited about this. Too bad I have to work tonight, and will miss the fun with the musicians.

Frequency Sci Fi Pi plan


FREQUENCY SCI FI le$bian film

80% funded is great, but we are still  make hoping for a few more prime number donations.

$2,503Raised of $3,141 Goal


We had a prime number donated to reach a prime number total. I love my geeky supporters.

With every supporter we get closer to making FREQUENCY a reality. Our first episode will be available in November. I think you are going to like it.

We have only the freshest ingredients with organic lesbian gaze tossed in for you. Just in case it isn't clear to our readers, PK and I have had our toaster since the 80's. That's right the 1980's!
80's Icon Julie Andrews & Janet Jackson













SOOOO that is why we are asking for help. We are interested in creating a sci fi lesbian drama.

Scully - Reyes X-Files
The X-files although very watchable with our two favorite agents, was not enough. The fan fic was fun but KV Works wants to put the subtext in the foreground. We make it the main text of the story.


So we are making a venue to introduce to you Deanna and Claire our heroines. 

Please click on the campaign link to support our  project.
Really, it is BIG thing for us if you contribute any amount.
$15 puts you in a class to get stuff from us so check out the perks !

Frequency Sci Fi Trailer Teaser sweetness

I am so excited! 

I handed over some footage - I know, right am I crazy?  but I totally trust Mer to do this right. - to make a trailer. Here it is.

Or at least it will be when we get the publishing rights.....



Frequency: Lesbian Sci-Fi Promo from Meredith Sause on Vimeo.

http://igg.me/p/221309 to help us get "Frequency Sci Fi where Lesbian is the main text" made.

There is some trivia for the future. The music in the trailer features our lead, Meredith Sause.

There are a few snippets of video that match some of the production stills you will see here on the blog.

I am very happy to have another version of our project out on the WWW.

8 Days left in the Campaign. Nine days left til the next filming. - pip

Countdown for Indiegogo campaign. Subtle or what?
So the number 9 has stalked me for quite some time and I just went ahead and decided to call it my lucky number. We have nine days left on on Indiegogo campaign and I'm hoping it means something good shall come our ways. I just added a 99 hz perk cause that's the kinda gal I am. -pip

Guess it's time for me to contribute to this bloggy thingy. So now the challenge, along with raising $'s for wardrobe and a larger food selection (peanut butter don't cut it), is getting more eps and filler writing done. Always a nerve wracking affair. Currently, I'm up to ep 6 with everything up to the ending sketched out but... things change. I'm lovin the webserial approach.

 I really do love these gals. They probably don't believe me, which is all well and good. Signing off for now - pip

Pi in the Sky and Frequency

This weekend was marked by the longest sky jump by man.





We looked up to see this amazing and crazy event. It inspires us to keep dreaming of impossible realities such as the one in our film "Frequency."
A world where you may change your existence if you tune into the world around you.



This weekend Claire is working her beta waves in a new way. We put her in a happy place to she could tune into the right Frequency.


Deanna wants to Claire to give her more, um, info.

We are down to the last 20 or so days on campaign to raise Pi for Frequency.
We need to get any help by sharing the 
Twitter shout out (  #frequency-sci-fi  http://igg.me/p/221309?a=1176907&i=twtr) or 
a facebook link ( https://www.facebook.com/KVWorks )

Any help is appreciated and moves us toward Pi.
