The Silent One, written and directed by Ray Woodall, is a sword and sorcery fantasy, with a noir edge. Keeping a vow of silence is only one quirk of our hero, as he rids the forest country of the forces of darkness. Roaming the countryside, he battles the agents of evil, and, finally, the Evil One. The story contains many battles and a host of odd characters such as a Gnome, a Witch, as well as Dryads, Ogres, Elves, Druids, Villagers, Wildmen, Northmen, Northwives, and She-Devils.
My involvement with The Silent One began after principal photography was shot in the summer of 2000. I edited the footage into four different promotional videos that could be used to raise more funding.
The screen captures below where typical of the supplemental forest scenes I shot as visual bridges between segments within each promo.

Ultimately, I edited four versions; from 1:30-to-20 minutes long.
The 4:30 minute version of The Silent One promo is on Demian’s Film & Video Projects DVD:
These shorts represent more than 40 years of moving-picture artistic endeavors. This archive DVD includes 21 of Demian’s short films, and excerpts from larger projects.
