A Christmas Snow has been touching peoples lives and hearts at the more than 200 screenings around the country and now on TV (channel listings here) and we just received a report of a father who is hoping to reconnect with his daughters this Christmas after watching the film. For us, stories like this represent true success for all of us here at Trost Moving Pictures.

Thank you to all of our friends, family, and fans who have told others about A Christmas Snow, the Novel, Sam’s Journal: Restored, and the Soundtrack. It is because of you that so many lives are being changed this Christmas Season!

About A Christmas Snow: A Christmas Snow stars Catherine Mary Stewart, Muse Watson, Cameron ten Napel, and Anthony Tyler Quinn and is a heart warming story of forgiveness and reconciliation. It has won best picture at the XP Media Film Festival and has been officially selected to many others.

The A Christmas Snow Novel

Here it is your first chance to see the finished A Christmas Snow Novel written by best-selling author Jim Stovall. We are honored to have Jim pen the novelization of our film and it is with great pleasure that we share the first look with you! We are also happy to share that the A Christmas Snow Novel will be available earlier than expected through Barnes & Noble stores nationwide.

You’ll be able to pick up your own copy of the A Christmas Snow Novel from the front table of any Barnes & Noble store starting September 7th. The Novel will be featured on the front table at Barnes & Noble for the month of September before moving to the Holiday and Inspirational sections.

Not only did the story contained in the book turn out fantastic, but you really need to make a point to pick this book up in your own hands as our publisher Destiny Image did a terrific job with the production of the book itself. I know I have never before said that a book felt good, but the special satin finish on the Novel really makes you want to hold it and read it, I guess that’s a good thing!

The great thing about the Novel as well is that Jim is able to delve deeper into the characters and story than we were able to in the film, so even if you’ve seen the film, you’ll want to experience the story all over again in Novel form.

So make sure to hit your local Barnes & Noble on Tuesday, September 7th to get your own copy of the A Christmas Snow Novel. It is sure to be a Christmas favorite of yours for years to come.

Make sure you remember that the DVD will be available on October 8th at stores everywhere along with the book Restored – 11 Gifts to a Complete Life written by Tracy J Trost that follows Sam’s Journey. The movie stars Catherine Mary Stewart, Muse Watson, Anthony Tyler Quinn, and Cameron ten Napel.

Recap of the 2nd Public Screening at ICRS

Catherine Mary Stewart on the Big Screen at ICRS

First off, I want to thank the hundreds of ICRS attendees who came by Tuesday night to see the 2nd Public Screening of A Christmas Snow starring Catherine Mary Stewart, Muse Watson, Cameron ten Napel, and Anthony Tyler Quinn. It was great to see you all there and to watch the film with you.

For Tracy J Trost the director of the film and myself it was an interesting time. We are proud of the work that everyone did in making A Christmas Snow. The cast and crew were incredible and they have worked together to make a wonderful and heartwarming family Christmas film. At the same time, it’s always a bit nerve racking to share it with others. The big difference at ICRS too, was that it was screening for the first time to people who really weren’t connected to us or the project in any way. Our first screening was with the crew, family, friends, and fans of the cast and while it’s always good to get great reviews from those groups you still wonder what a crowd of strangers would say.

With that said, Tracy took the stage, loosened up the crowd a little, gave away a screener copy, and then the lights went down. The movie started and it looked amazing on the big screen, a testament to the thousands of hours of work the crew put into making it. I probably watched the crowd more than the film and as time passed, the laughs started, and to our surprise even more laughs. The audience laughed more than at our first screening, we were relieved.

If you were following us on twitter at: twitter.com/TMPics you would have gotten the update about whether or not I should tell them the tears will start soon. I didn’t tell them… and they started. I watched as person after person began to wipe tears from their eyes as the movie came to a close. It was an incredible feeling and such a wonderful experience. I wish you could have all been there.

For us at Trost Moving Pictures our goal is simple, I’m looking forward to the emails, tweets, posts, and letters from those who have seen A Christmas Snow and were so moved, that this Christmas they contacted their mom, dad, daughter, son, brother, sister, or whoever and made an effort to restore a relationship that was previously lost. It’s not about sales or charts (although those can be nice), for us… for me… my number one goal is a book of stories, of lives changed and families, friends, and relationships restored. I hope you will join with us on this adventure and I thank you for coming with us already so far.

With hope for a Very Merry Christmas,

Joe Jestus – Trost Moving Pictures

Screening A Christmas Snow… Again!

I’m writing this post from 20,000 feet in the air on Southwest Airlines Flight #455, so where are we headed now?

Co-writer and Director Tracy J Trost and myself are headed to the 2010 ICRS in St. Louis, MO where we will be screening “A Christmas Snow” for the second time publicly. The first screening at the Gideon Media Arts Conference & Film Festival in North Carolina at the beginning of the month was a huge success. But now we’ve tweaked the film a bit more and we’re hoping for another great reception at the International Christian Retailers Show later today.

It’s always a bit nerve racking, as you never know how your film will be received but based on the reviews we’ve already received from those who have seen it, we’re confident that we have an entertaining and inspiring film.

And that’s our goal here at Trost Moving Pictures, to entertain and inspire audiences with our family friendly films and we hope “A Christmas Snow” will be doing that for years to come as families add it to their Christmas movie favorites list.

Stay tuned on facebook at: facebook.com/aChristmasSnow and we’ll let you know how the screening goes.

Thanks for your time and support, it’s greatly appreciated!
