Trip Out On "Memory Lane"

          
Memory Lane coming on March 24th
       A brilliant science thriller that has been                compared to independent  sci-fi               classics  Pi , Memento and Primer     

 "Shawn Holmes, an Afghan War veteran, spent the last of of his savings to make "Memory Lane." 

So glad the lead character in this film has one of those things, you know, your childhood, your past, oh a memory...

The psychological thriller tells the story of a war veteran who travels the real world and the afterlife in search of his fiance's killer by stopping and restarting his heart. Holmes started writing around the third grade and has been writing with his friend Hari Sathappan for years.

"Memory Lane is really just a combination of a lot of stuff that we have written from way back then to the middle of college so we just kind of combined everything we had and it turned out to be this," said Holmes. Friends were all over the set while making "Memory Lane" and when they were off set, too. Holmes' two roommates Zac Snyder and Michael Guy Allen, who is an Afghan War vet like his character, star in the movie.

"I wrote a lot of it around his experiences as an Afghan War combat veteran," said Holmes. "My other friend Zac Snyder also lived with us at the time, he stars in the movie. All the actors just volunteered so it was really easy to shoot being that I lived with two of the stars."

Once finished, "Memory Lane" was shown by the West Virginia Filmmakers Guild and Holmes was the youngest nominee ever for WV Filmmaker of the Year. Holmes then released "Memory Lane" online for one weekend and reached 22 thousand hits including the Wall Street Journal and Yahoo which helped build buzz and land Holmes in Hollywood where he's currently working on various high level projects.

Synopsis
When PTSD-plagued war vet Nick returns home and finds that his finance Kayla has committed suicide, he decides to take his own life, but what he sees in flashbacks moments before he is resuscitated leads him to believe Kayla was murdered. Now Nick must travel back and fourth between our world and the afterlife in a search of her killer - but to do it, he will need to die over and over again.

Around "A Great Big World" In 30 Days


When Sneakers Collide, It's: A Great Big World
Hitch a ride with A Great Big World this month, they are taking you on a trip for all 30 days of it, impressive!

In 2013, a friend of Ian Axel and Chad Vaccarino's challenged them to release one video per day for an entire month. They took the challenge, and the "30 Videos in 30 Days" series was born. Since then, the band has been on a whirlwind ride with their single "Say Something" taking over the radio charts around the world. 

Now, one year later, the band is resurrecting the video series to show a side of themselves that their new fans might not yet know. Five videos have been posted so far, including a "Day in the Life," "Fan Q&A," "Axel Fact," and "Why'd They Write That?" explaining the meaning and process behind writing "Say Something." Fans can look forward to more videos including live performances, more behind-the-scenes videos and more personal information from Ian and Chad. 

Take a look below and stay tuned for a new video each day this month! 


In addition, A Great Big World will be crisscrossing the globe this year when they launch an expansive international run, the appropriately titled "A Great Big World Tour".  The tour also perfectly coincides with the launch of the group's latest single "Already Home"
