As for God, His way is perfect! The word of the Lord is tested and tried; He is a shield to all those who take refuge and put their trust in him. - Psalm 18:30

It's been a while since our last issue, but rest assured we are still hard at work. We have some exciting developments to report on the production of our upcoming film Templar: Honor Among Thieves. We just visited Spiderwood Studios in Bastrop and we are so excited at the new facility that is being built! The prop building is virtually complete while construction on the first soundstage has just begun. This large facility will house a massive greenscreen that will make our production possible. The potential for what this means to our film is just

immense! God has been so good to us. I really find it interesting that this studio is being constructed at the same time we are prepping for production. For this reason, we documented our visit and are proud to announce that this will be the first installment in an ongoing Video Blog that will serve as a testament to the journey this project will take to it's theatrical release. Check out the feature below to find out how to you can view this exclusive video!

We also have some great events coming up as well as some new additions to our team. I hope you enjoy this issue and I look forward to sharing more great content with you next month!

- Rene Hinojosa - Director | CEO Innovative Renderworx

On a side note, I want to take this opportunity to extend a special thanks to Tommy Warren for allowing us an inside look at Spiderwood Studios. Tommy you are the man!


 

To follow our journey throughout the production of Templar: Honor Among Thieves, we've created an exclusive Video Blog that will give you a closer look at everything and everyone involved in this landmark project. To begin this series, we'll take a tour of Spiderwood Studios in Bastrop, Texas where we will have access to a new, state of the art soundstage complete with a massive greenscreen that will allow us to create any environment we want. With over 200 acres of woodlands featuring pastures, creeks and rivers, Spiderwood Studios is the place to achieve the vision we have in mind for our film. Join Writer, Director Rene Hinojosa, Fight Choreographer and Producer Janell Smith, Director of Photography Michael Morlan and Executive Producer Tommy Warren for an exclusive look at the future of film in Austin!
