Tara Cardinal on The Jimmy Star Show There are many legends in the film industry. Men like George Lucas who spent years working on Star Wars at the expense of his own health. Men like Sylvester Stallone, who went broke in search of his dream, turning down the studio offers when they refused to cast him in his own films. Men like Jackie Chan who grew up in an orphanage and now directs, produces, writes, stunt coordinates and does his own stunts, giving his millions back to charity. Tara Cardinal has a lot in common with those men. And once you see Legend of the Red Reaper and Scarlet Samurai:Incarnation - the two action packed superhero feature films she wrote, produced, directed and starred in - you'll see why. Originally from a tourist town in Canada, Cardinal was shuffled around until she ended up in foster care. At 12 years old, she co-founded a peer counseling organization dedicated to assisting children suffering from sexual abuse. By 16 she'd decided to move to the US to live the American dream, working 3 jobs to make ends meet. At 19, misdiagnosed with cancer and only holding a grade 7 education, she turned her life around, went back to school and earned a bachelor's degree in Psychology on full scholarship. A natural leader, she was unanimously elected president of the theatre club and held that position until she graduated. It was then she knew the movie business was the only place for her. Still in school and working a full time corporate job, she booked the female lead in the Warner Brother's slasher flick "Delivery". Soon, other offers came in. While juggling a budding film career, University and a full time job, she honed her improv skills at the Florida Renaissance Festival. Her first year performing as a man, because the festival director wouldn't let her sword fight as a woman. A few films later, Cardinal combined the skills she'd learned at her corporate job, her love of the Renaissance and sword play, and her name as an up and comer to create "Legend of the Red Reaper". Seasoned pros and aspirings alike flocked to her side and the project took on a life of its own. No sooner was production underway than adversity struck. Midway through filming, a co-production company embezzled 40% of the production funds - but Tara used her credit, her savings, and finally her own home to make up the difference. But it wasn't enough, and all of her above the line crew quit when the money ran out. Cardinal taught herself screenwriting, submitted her body to a 4 month invasive medical study and became a professional wrestler to raise the money to finish the shoot. With no other producers on set, she promoted all of her department heads to producer and went on to direct and produce, while staring in the film. Her cast and crew stood by her side and the film was finished within months. Post production offered a new set of challenges. Over 120 minutes of footage was lost by a shady post house. Three editors failed to complete so much as a rough cut. One distribution company tried to extort the film from Cardinal, trying to use her hard won film as b-roll and putting a male action star in the lead. Cardinal held her ground and her movie, even when the big shots threatened to sue. Finally, she caught the attention of movie mogul Uwe Boll, who took one look at the assembly her third editor compiled - and unfortunately passed. Resolute, she made him a deal. If she edited a new cut, would he reconsider? He would and she did. But first, she had to learn how to edit. When Uwe Boll saw her cut, he decided on the spot to not only rep the movie, but to throw his full weight behind the project, bringing on an award winning post production team. Helmed by Cardinal, the movie was recut, colored and scored to reflect a new vision. As Cardinal evolved, so did the film. Cardinal polished the film with a personal narration, bringing the final product together as one cohesive unit. She currently resides in Hollywood California where she is catching up on some much needed sleep in between producing charity events, writing novels and comic books, and creating superheros.
