Other details

Crowbar

A Tattoo for Christmas comes from the same production company as the multiple award-winning short film Crowbar, written and directed by Lee Ryan Coston. Crowbar had a dream team of crew and actors, and has traveled the world. It has made quite an impact, and continues to be requested in private venues.

Now, it's time for Blue Heron Productions to produce another award-winning short.  A Tattoo for Christmas will be created with the same great team at the helm. Tylor Jones is coming back on board as DP, and Lee Ryan Coston and Sandra Scragg will be Co-Directors.

We are putting together another dream team of crew and actors, and look forward to hearing from you.
