Midnight Shoot

The late night shoot went well. We were packed up and out before 4am. I think the NMT team got some great stuff. Glad we could assist.

a HUH? moment...

Why would someone that is actively trying to get work, as talent or crew, not pay to have their photo and resume on IMDb?

I don't get it. A year before I ever had a credit published on IMDb, I paid for the resume/photo service.

I'll let you in on a secret. When you submit for a job/role one of - if not THE 1st thing that will happen, is that you will be IMDb'd. Having an IMDb page is better than not, but having a page with a photo is much better - it lets us know that we are talking to/considering the correct person. Also, for all of the people that have theatre and/or modeling experience you need to add that to "Other Works" but it should also be on the IMDb resume.

I'm just saying... I know that, all things being equal- the one with the IMDb page gets the job.

Kickstarter's coming soon...

My intention was to have Hide. on Kickstarter by Feb 1st. However, my video was WAY to big and long. So, I started editing it down... and I started getting nervous. I am not a pitchman. I am a Writer... a Director... a Producer... even an Editor. ALL behind-the-scenes jobs. I hope that my awkwardness comes off as sincere and that my passion for the project comes through. I would hate it if my lack of comfortability doomed my ouwn project that I AM so passionate about.

Hide. (The Web-Series) coming soon to www.kickstarter.com

Nyjo Brennen

Just wanted to say to Nyjo... I have been very absent from social media for the past several weeks. I saw you tweeted me, at the new year. Sorry. I hope all is going well, and you're not getting snowbound with all of these storms. I am excited to have you on Hide. I have big plans for you...

Updates...

This has been one busycrazyhectic week. I have worked on Amy Lyn Howell's Disc-Functional film. I have been re-rendering, exporting and uploading the Phobia web-series. I have been doing pre-production work on a bullied comdeic short, a tragic short and a Breaking Bad-ish office drone mini-series. I have been editing. All the while working on the kickstarter pitch. I think there were some other projects I have had a hand in as well.

Disc-Functional UPDATE!!!

It was a COLD COLD day in Florida. With the temperature, shade and wind- we were all fighting freezing and frostbite. But, the shoot went amazingly well. A special THANKS to all of the cast and crew that braved the cold to work on the project. I know that the director, Amy Lyn Howell, agrees- "THANK YOU".

Disc-Functional Day 3...

Amy Lyn Howell's Disc-Functional shoots Sat the 22nd at 8am in Clearwater. I'll be there. Hopefully, it won't be the 50 degrees and "severe wind chill" that the weathermen are predicting. This is day 3 of principal photography.

Updated Shorts...

I have been working tirelessly on editing both 'Hide.', formerly HTS, to be able to hit our self-imposed deadline to be on www.kickstarter.com AND 'The Circle of Men', formerly COM.

Both are coming along great. I look forward to be able to submit both to film festivals soon.

Also coming up this month, some work on DF & SC2.

2010 Updates...

It has been sometime since my last post. Quite a bit has happened...

In 2010, I began the rebranding of RnD as RnD Entertainment Studios.

July, I reformed RnD Entertainment Studios with Amy Lyn Howell, Jayson Martinez and Ted Souppa as the core creative and producing team.

August, We shot 'TRU LUV' and 'unloved.', two short films.

October, We shot 'The Circle of Men'.

November, We shot the pilot and trailer for 'Hide.'.

December has been spent editing and pre-planning for 2011 & the future of RnDES.

Along the way, Amy Lyn Howell has begun shooting her 1st short as writer-director ('Disc-Functional') and Jayson Martinez (with recurring RnDES people- Kirk Michael Austin and Kyle Austin) has begun work on the sequels to the immensly popular, film festival favorite- 'Street Cred'.

In barely 6-months, RnDES has shot 4 shorts and the beginnings of a web-series, while working on other projects. It has been a wild ride, and it's only getting started...

It was not all happy news though...
