PRESS RELEASE
Wasteland Films LLC’s new webisode series, Lady Wasteland, launches website featuring the first of seven pilot episodes.
Portland, OR – November 30th, 2007 – Wasteland Films LLC has launched its new post-apocalyptic webisode series Lady Wasteland. Episode One: A Piece of Food, went live Friday morning at 12:01am .
Each episode is being released weekly starting November 30th, uploaded to dozens of video sharing sites free of charge.
The structure of the pilot series is designed around three separate stories that intersect and parallel one another. For later episodes there will be numerous sub-plots coming into play -- involving new characters and situations that will have effects on future episodes dealing with our lead characters. Everything is connected... everything has meaning.
In this story, there is no set geographic location for where the series takes place. Creators Mark Roush and Greg Demchak were of firm belief that one of the last places you'd find survivors in a post apocalyptic environment would be in the desert wearing leather jackets and driving around in dune buggies.
After recording the show’s score at Firehouse Studios in Pasadena, Roush knew the haunting and disturbing tone of composer Rob Simonsen’s music would enhance the overall atmosphere of the storyline and bring with it the proper emotional complexity that the series requires.
Based upon the recent success of many post-apocalyptic and dystopian-esque stories such as Cormac McCarthy’s “The Road”, the feature film Children of Men and the up and coming release of Will Smith’s new film, “I am Legend”, Wasteland Films believe the entertainment market is prime for the return of the post-apocalyptic genre.
Steps are also being made to offer the episodes as free downloadable videos for portable media players and cells phones. Our flagship site is located at www.ladywasteland.com, which also goes live November 30th.
Welcome to the wasteland. Enjoy the decay.

Welcome to the wasteland.
Wasteland Films LLC has wrapped post-production on its new post-apocalyptic webisode series Lady Wasteland. Seven pilot episodes were filmed in numerous locations in the Pacific Northwest over the course of eight days. Utilizing over 40 characters in a more urban and industrially decayed setting, the series is working to break the paradigm of the post apocalyptic genre and redefine it for a new generation.
In this story, there is no set geographic location for where the series takes place. Creators Mark Roush and Greg Demchak were of firm belief that one of the last places you'd find survivors in a post apocalyptic environment would be in the desert wearing leather jackets and driving around in dune buggies. They’d be found foraging in the forest, hiding in abandoned factories and struggling to survive in decaying suburban homes.

The first seven pilot episodes of Lady Wasteland will be released weekly on dozens of sites including www.ladywasteland.com, starting November 30th. The show will be downloadable and is completely free of charge. Enjoy the decay.
