We returned to the Woodland Theater to capture more footage for the film’s extended introduction. Dancing, face-plants, over-serving, and underage drinking—it’s all here. CRYSTAL BALL! has a cast of hundreds, each a sparkling tessera in a beautiful, ever-growing mosaic of insanity, romance, despair, and revelry.

Thank you to all our beautiful dancers and crew, who really gave it their all, at this very ecstatic shoot. DANCE DANCE DANCE DANCE DANCE DANCE. Party... Party Tonite!

Thank you, Tom Eykemans, for providing the space to us! You rock!

DAY 216 of filming CRYSTAL BALL! ⚪️

The hugeness of CRYSTAL BALL! continues to grow as we near the finish line. Day 216 of filming featured our most rapid back-and-forth dialog, with the most characters speaking—the closest the movie comes to being like the films of Preston Sturges or the Coen Brothers.

CASTING ALERT! 🚨 CRYSTAL BALL! is fortunate to include the talented multi-hyphenate JUSTIN JEROME, whose work spans film, music, and comics. 🔥

Justin lends his foreboding presence to the role of BRISKET—the looming, potentially-psychotic best friend of SAD EYED O. 😈🥩 You will pray to God for forgiveness when you see Justin on the screen. 🙏

Check out Justin’s work with RAWSTOCK STUDIOS and keep your eyes peeled for screenings of his new film THE LEGEND OF BUDDY NUGGS. 🎥🌿💨

We keep it small but we capture it ALL! 🎬✨ CRYSTAL BALL! just completed DAY 163 of filming. We filmed with a tiny crew and three actors, producing some of our most beautiful, sick and heartbreaking shots. 🎭💔

When people ask us “What is CRYSTAL BALL! about?” we say ALL KNOWN HUMAN EMOTIONS!!

Providing music for the second time to Dr. Clean Productions is Brian Noyes 🎹✨ — a Seattle-based musician and the frontman of the baroque pop group Tomten 🎻🌙. Brian composed music for the original soundtrack of Fantasy A Gets a Mattress 🎶🛏️ and is now contributing new compositions to the soundtrack of CRYSTAL BALL! 🔮🎥 — including the smash song “Moon Kiss” 🌕💋.

DAY 65 of filming CRYSTAL BALL! 🔮✨ Fantasy A is the KING of dramatic acting! 👑 Check out this behind the scenes shot of Fantasy A about to deliver his spine-chilling monologue, spoken to an old gravestone in a cemetery right on a major freeway. 🪦🙏 After an opening sequence of ecstatic nightlife, we find Fantasy A as Ernie the Building Superintendent 🛠️, taking us into emotional territory unlike any place in Dr. Clean Productions history! 💾

When you pray... you are graced with an angel. 👼🔮 CRYSTAL BALL! has a cast of hundreds, but no role was harder to cast than the former cult leader, BRUCE POWERS. A very particular charm, wit, and danger was necessary to capture this character and it was found... in a single TikTok video. We first saw landscaper and rock stacker DAVE BENHAM in a TikTok video for the infamous Dotz Show, where he makes an appearance scolding someone at Amazon Fresh for eating unpurchased grapes. 🍇 We instantly fell in love. After one brief phone call, Dave jumped in head first into a major film role, never having acted before. The results are electric. ⚡️ You will laugh, cry, and fear for your soul when you see DAVE... as BRUCE! 🔥

Dreams do come true! ✨🎬 The other night the CRYSTAL BALL! team captured one of our favorite scripted scenes: the creation of a 1990’s public access television show featuring a small cult espousing the virtues of their leader. 📺🔮 This was an intimate shoot with more leather on display than in a cow pasture. 🐄🖤

Deep in the bowels of the Georgetown Steam Plant, 🏭 Dr. Clean Productions worked on one of the most mind-bending scenes in recent movie history 🧠✨—a journey into the mind of Fantasy A’s latest screen persona, Ernie the building superintendent. 🔧

Ernie is taciturn, yet he may have the most expansive inner life of any character in our latest film, CRYSTAL BALL! 🔮

CASTING ALERT 🚨 || Tony! Tony! Tony!

A Dr. Clean Productions favorite, Tony Beck is back on the big screen in CRYSTAL BALL! as BOOMBOXXX the pimp. Beck is a DJ, voiceover artist, and all-around idiosyncratic artistic genius from Casper, Wyoming! 🤠 Off-kilter, compelling, and outrageous — Tony Beck is the best!!! 🔥🐯✨

Yes! We’re on track to have more shooting days than the production of Kill Bill, Jaws, and Eyes Wide Shut (just kidding on that last one!). We are putting in the time and attention to detail for CRYSTAL BALL! in order to deliver something unlike anything you’ve seen before: a mystical ride of musical phantasmagoria! Big shout out to our actors portraying City Light workers—who danced, screamed, and were perfect in all their rugged rakishness. ⚡️

We’re headed towards home base and can’t wait to share CRYSTAL BALL! with you. 🔮✨

Arnold the pug is making his feature film debut as RAVIOLI in CRYSTAL BALL!

This production has many dogs gracing the screen, but ARNOLD is the Mads Mikkelsen of canine actors — low-key yet silently radiating emotional heft . When filmmakers talk about great dog actors, you can hear their delight — because they are talking about talent like Arnold, a true pro.

Think we are being hyperbolic? Wait till you see his cataract-filled eyes on the big screen …you’ll enter pools of knowledge.
