THE VAMPIRE DAIRIES WEB PREQUEL
Getting you set for the September 10th premire of "The Vampire Diaries" on the CW, a four-episode prequel web series "A Darker Truth" will premiere every Tuesday. Below you'll find part 1, along with details on the prequel, courtesy of Tubefilter.tv
"The network tapped Retrofit Films, the same shop that created four of the "Heroes" spinoff web series for NBC last year, with Tanner Kling and Chris Hanada directing. Cast members for the TV series, like stars Ian Somerhalder and Nina Dobrev, are only used via clips and stills with new web-only actors used for most of the show. The showrunner for the TV series, Kevin Williamson, did not write the web version; instead staff co-producer Sean Raycraft did the honors.
While there is no direct sponsor for the series, there is a look integration of the anti-tobacco “Truth” campaign with the characters sporting “Truth” t-shirts as part of a larger deal with The CW."
