Saratoga

Visiting Saratoga County and ...

I just got back from visiting the lower Adirondacks. Even as I wrap up my fan film, Batman 1969, this fall, I am planning to do a story arc in this region next summer, and it should be a fun one.

Indeed, one condition for filming in this region is that we not make the episodes as dark as The Dark Knight, and to not make such places as Corinth and Lake Luzerne look bad. Now that does not mean I am planning to redo the 1966 Batman series and make it really campy and cartoony.

But it has given me ideas on how to proceed. If we do end up like the 1966 series, it would only be because we went for something like the first episodes from January 1966. They will be more serious. Still, I know we will have something really fun to work on.

And viewers will get to see a region I have loved since I was a child. Imagine seeing Carrie Kelley, Bruce Wayne and Selina Kyle in Saratoga, Glens Falls, or North Creek. Stay tuned for more updates!
