A few words on the story

A new chapter in the Lord of the Rings saga, created by fan's of Tolkien. This short film is set in Middle Earth and depicts events leading up to the Fellowship of the Ring. Synopsis: The Ring of Power has been taken from Gollum by Bilbo of the Shire. The heir of Isildur sets out to find him before he falls into the hands of the enemy and reveals the location of the Ring...




Here's a brief synopsis of the film's story in TH4G (and pics of some locations!)

It's technically a PREQUEL although our story is based carefully on Tolkien's appendices to The Lord of The Rings and The Hobbit. We're creating a serious, epic and cinematic tribute to the Tolkien and also the film trilogy. Our story takes place after The Hobbit but before The Fellowship Of The Ring and follows a young Ranger of Arnor (although one of great lineage) in his journey to find the creature.

A PREQUEL to The Fellowship of the Ring


By the way, these are pictures of where we'll be filming in September: Snowdonia, N Wales, UK
"Gollum has ventured out of his cave deep beneath the Misty Mountains. He's searching for one thing. The Ring, which was taken from him by Bilbo who tricked him but also named his homeland; The Shire. Many evil things are being drawn towards Mordor and Gollum inevitably is drawn towards the black land. The heir of Isildur sets out to find him before the creature can be captured by the enemy and reveal the location of the Ring...

Next I'll do a post on the cast I guess.
