Secret of the Amazon Queen Graphics

For those looking forward to the first feature film from Lost Continent Library, here are some of the graphics created to promote the book and then the movie.

The first model LCL hired to promote the book in its first release in 2004 was Miriam Rivera, then a big reality TV star in European and Australian markets.

It seemed SOTAQ was movie material from the start for Miriam's agent in London loved the book and we almost saw it optioned by one of the BBC movie divisions. But alas, it was one of two scripts put before video director and fashion photographer David LaChappelle and he chose the other one. As it turns out, I'm glad he passed because I am the director of the film now...

In 2008, we decided to ramp up our effort to produce the film ourselves with independent investors. Here is a graphic created for the LCL web site and ephemera such as coffee mugs, tee shirts, etc...









Of course, most of you have probably seen the one sheet, first created in 2009 when we initiated our second serious attempt to land a producer. This was the image, along with the pitch, that captured the first production company we landed and their distributor in 2010...

It was early 2010 that I decided to freshen up promotion of the book with a new face of the Amazons and that's when I found model Rryan Bouttavong who appears here (along with our first and only male model) and on the new cover of the novel below...















If you haven't read Secret of the Amazon Queen, or the follow up 'sequel' Tropic of Despair, there is a link here to the right of the page where you can get both these books in single volume Kindle format edition for only $1.99. You can also get the printed edition at the LCL Adventure Shop link for a reasonable price...

As more production art is developed, I will continue to post it here...
