Artwork and Design For 4-4-43
I recently had the pleasure of creating the artwork and design for the movie 4-4-43. The film, directed and produced by John D . Lukacs, will be featured in the 2014 GI Film Festival. The screening is scheduled for the Old Town Theater, Alexandria, VA on Sunday, May 25, at 5 p.m.
In addition to the artwork and design, I also created a special logo for the
Mission Of Honor. The hope of this mission is to see Col. Ed Dyess finally receive the Medal Of Honor. After seeing the film, I believe that many will feel that this is long overdue. Hopefully the logo will assist in this noble pursuit.
Shot in HD in both the U.S. and the Philippines, 4-4-43 features vintage WWII media, captured enemy combat footage, interviews with surviving veterans and noted historians and the narrative talents of Hollywood actor and U.S. Marine Corps veteran Dale Dye (Saving Private Ryan, Band of Brothers) as well as “The Voice of the Oscars,” Tom Kane, as Ed Dyess.
A is a brief synopsis of the film: On April 4, 1943, ten American prisoners-of-war and two Filipino convicts broke out of an escape-proof Imperial Japanese Army prison plantation in the Philippines. The secret that they carried out with them would shock the world. Called the “Greatest Story of the War in the Pacific” by the U.S. War Department in 1944, the full, uncensored true action adventure tale has been lost to history for nearly seven decades – until now.
