One EPIC Proposal!

Did you have a great Holiday season?  'Cause ours was insanely busy, but a such blast!

Over Christmas, we were honored to be a part of a special celebration!  


Months ago, this guy here:


                                                                                                                   
              
Decided to ask this lovely lady to marry him.  


But he didn't want any old kind of proposal.  

He wanted to go EPIC for his gal!

He came up with an idea that would be hard to top. He would "get her friends to take her to the movie theater and the normal movie previews are going to start, but instead it's going to be a movie preview showing me asking you (her father) if I can marry your daughter,"

...But we are jumping ahead of ourselves in this tale...

Jeremy has acted in a few of our short films and commercial video projects in the past, and he came to us with this gem of an idea. How could we pass this opportunity up??

Stephen and Jeremy worked for months on an idea to make a suspenseful movie trailer that would have a surprise ending revealing Jessica's father giving Jeremy permission to marry his daughter. (I know, cool right??)  The trailer then launches into a series of hilarious running scenes, which include Jeremy running in front of a green screen with old footage of cars and even dinosaurs digitally replaced in the background. (all filmed in our dining room). Then it cuts to him running up to the AMC Theater in Fitchburg, finally ending in front of the doors to the theater that Jessica was in that night.  

Since that day, December 26, 2012, this proposal video has gotten quite a bit of attention!  Channel 15 News out of Madison, WI picked up the story (among a few other stations), The Gazette out of his hometown of Janesville, WI wrote a front page article, Local Vision TV from Janesville also did a video featuring the story, and it's been picking up a lot of views on our YouTube channel!  Drywater has even been asked by a few other guys, one as far away as India, to make a movie trailer proposal for their girlfriends!

What a great way to propose to your special lady!  We were happy to be a part of Jeremy and Jessica's special day!!  Congratulations, you two!!

Watch the trailer along with Jessica's reaction as she realizes that it is Jeremy and her dad up on the big screen!  The video ends with footage of Jeremy down on one knee, Jessica's answer, "Yes!", and the audience (invited friends and family of the couple) irrupting in cheers!
