Wingman

Voicemails to My Future Self Vol. 2 Behind the Scenes Photos

The second volume in our Voicemails to My Future Self series is now in production. We've got a look behind the scenes on the set, which filmed the last week of August in Apex, North Carolina.

We mentioned that Wingman, the second Voicemails film, was coming up and sure enough, production week finally arrived. The film is directed by Tony Cope and is the story of how suicidal veterans lean on their wingman in times of need after their service ends.

Check out some BTS photos taken by Production Designer Emily Mormann.

Wingman took 3 exhausting days to film.

Day 1 was all exteriors on one of the hottest days of the year. Day 3 was full of dark scenes and shot until 3am. But these are the easy things.

For 3 days, we brought to life the chaos fueled darkness of suicide ideation for our camera. The actors and crew, as well as our Marine veteran and project collaborator Michael 'Top' Washington, did such an exceptional job with such an emotionally exhausting task.

Wingman: Voicemails to My Future Self Vol. 2 is a Myriad Originals Film. Watch more of our Original films.
