“It’s a wrap!” for feature “Loophole” shot in Morgantown
WVFG members had a big part to play in creating the movie Loophole, shot in and around Morgantown, during the month of September. It was a great crew and comfortable set to work on. In fact, we were so efficient that principle photography wrapped two days ahead of schedule. Young and very talented actresses Chloe Lukasiak from Dance Moms and Gabby Valladares brought the goods along with Deven Bromme and Michael Sigler kept the crew entertained. LOOPHOLE is a faith-based futuristic film inspired from the novel ‘Loophole’ written by Jason Hostetler. LOOPHOLE intertwines Biblical truths in an apocalyptic plot to not only entertain this ‘Sci-Fi’ generation but also challenge them to become world changers.
