Wait until season two!!! <br /><br />This project has been a labor of love for all of us involved. We are very proud of our series and the cast and crew that have devoted their time and energy to our project for free. We couldn't have done it without them.<br /><br />If you do travel to the north end please take a friend, and make sure that friend is who you think they are!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16303081444431367993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-503067656910358972.post-34312334372281347672011-05-24T13:36:26.358-04:002011-05-24T13:36:26.358-04:00Many thanks for your feedback, and for the time an...Many thanks for your feedback, and for the time and energy you've devoted to watching and thinking about the show.

In fact, I...Hi, I'm fairly new to Ragged Isle. In fact, I vacation on Matinicus and have been since the early seventies, so I'm familiar with the real "Ragged Isle" a/k/a Criehaven. (Also noticed a familiar face from Matinicus - Hi Susan!!) I also know a woman from Peak's Island, so I can relate to the setting in this series. So far I'm intrigued by the story. It's always good and creepy to involve a part of the island that is "off limits", plus there are all sorts of marine myths that can come into play here. So I'm totally tuning in for season two. Don't know if you're looking for constructive criticism or not, but as is my nature, I'll give it anyway. First I'll comment on what I liked the best. The camera shots, angles, and such were very good. I definitely felt a sense of despair, or anticipation or shock (depending on the desired effect) and a lot of that was invoked by the camera shots alone. I wasn't too crazy about some of the acting though, which I do understand for a small budget it probably is difficult to find good actors. Actually, as I'm writing this, I think the acting gets a little better. Maybe it was just a matter of the actors getting used to acting. I'm interested to see how that goes in the second season. This series also reminds me a lot of the TV mini-series "Harper's Island" but your program has more a seemingly paranormal twist to look forward too. We all need a little "Twilight Zone" in our lives and we haven't had much since the "X-Files"!! =) The music is interesting...some music is great and sets the mood quite well, while other music seems distracting. BUT, all that said It's a pretty darned good show. Looking forward to all that's yet to come. Good luck and hope you all have a fun time! I'll be thinking of this while I'm on Matinicus this summer....was actually thinking of taking in a few days of camping on Criehaven...maybe we'll have to venture to the north end of the island and check it out!!! ;)Jody Lyonsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-503067656910358972.post-34868476160071314682011-05-13T21:26:12.448-04:002011-05-13T21:26:12.448-04:00Adam, it was a huge undertaking for sure.
