Today I wrote the opening scene for the feature I hope to shoot soon. It’s a tall order but given the right circumstances, it’s doable. Technology is in our favor, and the fact that we are in LA with lots of young talented actors and crew members ready to work on feature film projects. The […]

All the features I am currently writing are going to need investors to produce with the budget of $100,000 on the low end and nearly $1 million on the high end. The trilogy would take $30 million if not more for part two since it’s has huge viking battle scenes, lots of effects, gore and […]

Playground is still in the process of being synced. Everything looks and sounds great, and I couldn’t be happier with the Epic. I’m glad we tested it out on this short before we jump to our feature, whichever one we choose to do. I took a break from writing my trilogy to map out one […]

Brad and I decided on a style for the effects we will be using in Playground. They look very organic with a smoke trail and will fit really well into the scene. I’m very excited to get to that step. Since we love science fiction so much, it’s definitely something I see us doing more […]

I stayed up late last night working on my trilogy, Warrior’s Blood. One of the rules of writing is to torture your characters. If you put them through hell, the audience is more likely to care for them and their fight for justice. With that rule in mind, I’ve created an antagonist that puts one […]

I am spending the night writing my Trilogy and researching. These two lead characters come from very different places, and I need to get to know their surroundings so I can develop the characters further. I’m finding it fascinating to learn about a different culture that mirrors ours in some ways, but is vastly different […]

Tonight I started writing my action trilogy. The first section is all action and very little dialogue. There’s so much that happens to both our leads that needs to be covered as we introduce them in their separate stories. It’s extremely visual. I am writing what comes naturally, and then I will worry about toning […]

I started syncing Playground today. I got through most of the park scenes, and then edited together some of the footage because I was so excited by what I was seeing. It looks really good. I honestly felt like I was editing together an episode of CSI because the footage looks so crisp, and the […]

Currently I am reading a book called Producer To Producer about producing independent film. It’s a great resource, packed full of helpful information, so I can get my feature projects off the ground with a pool of investors. One of the tools for writing a feature is to map out successful films. The way it […]

I designed a quick poster for Playground. We will want to design a second one as we get closer to completion. The footage for Playground is going to take a few days to get into the AVID. It’s the only drawback to shooting on the Epic. If we were to edit in Premiere, we could […]
