Code picture found on Google

Moush and me are the biggest fans of our studio website, and almost every day we come up with a new idea of how to improve this or that feature. Small things are being changed or added quite often, but, thanks to Moush’s strict coordination, the website always keeps its attractive simplicity and works like a swiss clock.

July 20th, 2010 by gorbaghdasaryan

Those of you, who follow our activities here and on our Facebook page, have probably noticed a strange silence from us for the last couple of days (I don’t count the detailed comments on Mush’s boots). That is because our shootings are temporarily stopped here, and we are very sorry to admit that. We need to return back to Yerevan for several days and restart shootings later.

Mush's favorite position for shooting.

Second day of filming on Turkish borders went really well. We met new people, visited the family who probably are going to be the main characters of the Turkish part of the film, filmed the fair of villages that takes place every summer.

First Day of the Trip to Turkey

July 17th, 2010 by gorbaghdasaryan

Waiting

Driving to Kars took a little longer than a day because of the long stops at the borders of Georgia and Turkey. We arrived late after midnight and left for the location next morning with Nesra Gurbuz, our executive producer from Istanbul. I will not tell you about the incident with not knowing about the 2-hour time difference between Yerevan and Kars and demanding breakfast at the hotel somewhere at 6 in the morning, as it’s a shame, and nobody should know about it!
