Possible Freeborn revival?
I know for a lot of people here, the name Freeborn can bring up many of feelings. The grandiose plan of a full fledged werewolf movie with supposedly an all practical effect female werewolf transformation. That quickly turned into mutliple gofundmes, indigogos and end the end, nothing to show from it. But there might be some light left at the end of that long dark tunnel.
Anthony Brownrigg, the mind behind freeborn as recently begun posting more and more regularly on his facebook and youtube page making silicons and casts of werewolf parts. It seems the Freeborn short film indeed might be back on the radar. The few videos on his youtube page are very short clips of the casts and molds, but he seems to be dedicated once again. You can read more on his facebook page and see more pictures of the work he has been doing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9a9cJjjnJ2k |

I'm pretty sure they actually did make some version of that movie, released under a different name, and it was awful.

Re: Possible Freeborn revival?
I was wondering when the next round of his "Boy Who Cried Wolf" routine would start up again. At this point, I'll believe it when I see it, and even then, after the crap he pulled with the last funding effort (took the money and ran, without producing anything, let alone fulfilling pledge incentives), I will not spent a cent on any project with his name on it. I am on record in this forum defending him in the past, but that was the last straw. He's somewhere between a con artist, and being all talk with no substance.
He did make a short film with no process to flesh out the backstory of one of the potential characters of the film/series/whatever, but that was it. There were also videos recruiting people to play the roles of different characters, but, as usual, nothing came of it. |

I'd have to see some solid results from Brownrigg before I even considered any project of his again. Far as I'm concerned he's a con artist.

I think "Stillborn" would have been more appropriate name. Even if Brownrig is serious this time, he's done irrevocable damage to his reputation.

Re: Possible Freeborn revival?
The problem is that he hurted the TF and werewolf community to a level that no one has ever done. As some people can confirm here, he took the money and ran... well, not exactly, he did some effort to get things done, but sadly he bit much more than he could chew.
Consequently, I see very little future on his efforts, unless he could sell his idea to "those guys" who usually end up ruining good ideas (aka "Cursed", "Wolves" or "Howling Reborn" producers). Anyway, I'd love that some people out there could take advantage of those prosthetics and could do decent horror werewolf movies :P. |

Well, he did a livestream tonight, so I decided to do some recon for y’all. Sounds like it will be a short film with a female werewolf, set in the universe of Freeborn. It sounds fully funded, but i’m not sure. It’s the girlfriend of a werewolf who is transforming for the first time but she doesn’t know what’s happening to her. I asked who the actress was and he said April Dawn Hartman, an actress in Texas ... who I think is this person: https://www.instagram.com/april.hartman/?hl=en
There’s a discord with more pictures of things, you can find the link in the comment of the linked video. He also uploaded lots of videos to his TikTok. Anyway, regardless of what people feel, that’s what I found out. |

Yea sounds like hes up to the same tricks as before, toss some bait to get money to pay for his own projects again, don't be fooled into giving him money, he needs to show his work before anyone should trust him again.
