Shadowstorm Studios posted on their Facebook page, "Guys, it breaks my heart to say this, the studio who I have been talking to since January just dropped a fee on us, we can't cover this and we need to cancel. Since this is the second time we have had to cancel shooting due to outside forces we can't in good conscience continue to ask our people to pay for travel and lodging to shoot Melbourne.": https://www.facebook.com/Shadowstormstudios/photos/a.845389958881245/2114619628624932/?
