Behind the Story
Shot on dozens of video cassettes with an ensemble of dear friends, Space Prairie has been in the works since April of 2013 and was mostly filmed in the summer of 2015. Since then, it has remained a gargantuan post-production effort.
The first half of the film, Act I, enjoyed its public debut on April 19th, 2019 for a one-time screening during Illinois Central College’s Arts Week in East Peoria, IL. Act II is progressing steadily, and the entire film will eventually be released for you to see.
