HI ANTONIA

I RECENTLY HAD AN OPPORTUNITY TO VIEW THE PILOT/DEMO FOR YOUR NEW COOKING SHOW,
AND ONCE AGAIN WAS EXTREMELY IMPRESSED BY THE SUPERB PRODUCTION VALUES.

YOU ARE A  CONSUMMATE PRO WHEN IT COMES TO DOCUMENTARY AND REALITY PRODUCTION 
AND YOUR PROGRAM LOOKS LIKE IT WILL BE BOTH ENTERTAINING AND INFORMATIVE.

YOU DO A GREAT JOB OF  FINDING JUST THE RIGHT SUBJECTS TO FEATURE
TO GIVE YOUR PROGRAM SOME SIZZLE.

I WISH YOU ALL THE BEST WITH THE SHOW AND LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING YOU
WHEN YOU'RE IN THE STATES. CIAO.

SYNOPSIS

THE RIDING COOKS

a pilot film by Antonia Umlauf and Gabriele Gumpert

The filmmakers Antonia Umlauf and Gabriele Gumpert travel together with 13 animals, including their own stunt and camerahorses, push their film company and portray beautiful countries aswell as interessting people. They ride out on expeditions or just to collect wild herbs, explore the countryside from the local, untouristic point of view and end up cooking their collectables in the private kitchens of their new found firends.

The pilot profiles MERLE KULENKAMPFF, daughter of a famous actor. She runs an animal sanctuary in the upper Waldviertel of Austria and fights hard to survive, for the responsibility is eating her up, financially and physically.

Find out what Antonia and Gabi will do to help, ride out with them into stunning austrian nature and cook a mouthwatering austrian menue together with them.

After nearly three years of travelling in a 48 feet long harnessed trailer and horsetruck with our animals and producing over thirty films during this period, we created something which has never been on television before.

Healing Media has produced the pilotfilm to a new kind of television series in 2007. It is an animal loving documentary docsoap about countries, a tiny filmcompany, impressing people and their projects, enviroment protection, animal protection, camping, two women, cooking and charity with extremely high production values.

After having stored the concept in our lawyers drawers, the pilotfilm is now being presented to an exclusive jury of hollywood writers, directors and producers at the WORLDFEST in houston 2008 and a couple of selected broadcasters.

We proudly present: The RIDING COOKS THEME SONG which was composed by BRETT REID ( JOHN DEER BAND) and performed & recorded by BRETT REID & MIKE STOCKER, and special guest award winning singer of the year KATJA BERNROIDER from BLACK HORSE COUNTRY BAND, and yes we have the music video ready to be released soon.

All our films were produced by solar power and we use BIODIESEL in the truck if available.
