I just got some amazing news last night. I have been inducted into the “Indie Film Hall of Fame” at the Indie Gathering Film Festival and Convention this year! Holy Cow, I don’t know if I deserve such a moniker. I’m still learning. Everything I do, I still learn something Read more…
The last few days have been a flurry of shooting and prep for post production. Today I shot no less than 6 new bits. Yeah, some of them are all of :30 seconds long but they still count! I’m having trouble NOT creating and relaxing right now. It’s a pleasant Read more…
The Emmy’s are right around the corner. I have no chance in hell of taking home some gold, but it’s like prom for television people and I want to go. A lot of my friends are nominated and I think several will win. I plan on having a blast though. Read more…
Didn’t get to editing on the next Sonnyboo project. Helping a friend with his Saturday Night Live audition reel took precedent. I love this age where someone in Los Angeles can shoot and send me clips, and in a few short hours, I can turn it around with material gathered Read more…
Had a hard drive failure and lost some important footage for FRAMELINES. It’s bad. Normally, we have multiple backups, but this was raw footage that had not been edited yet. A new procedure must be put in place to prevent this from happening again. Redundancy of data is essential in Read more…
The next few weeks of my life are about to get interesting. Moving, working, editing, writing, and new opportunities arise. FRAMELINES has some new things coming, as along with the Sonnyboo Podcast, we shot several of these things I’m calling “short takes” to fill the :10 to :45 seconds in Read more…
Working on the latest Sonnyboo Podcast, having a little fun. I find I am putting slightly more time into the greenscreen portion. This time I did some virtual camera movement, spent a bit more time trying to make the keying a bit more “realistic“, even though that is never my Read more…
Life takes some topsy turvy turns, my droogies. Your faithful narrator may have some serious changes in the near future. All I have worked toward seems to be getting noticed, in the best ways possible for me. With the plans I set in motion for my life, I had 3 Read more…
What a busy month this is! Moving, web series, podcasts, TV shows, and screenings Oh My! Tonight Mickey Fisher’s TV show EXTANT premiere’s. I am so happy for him. His story shows that if you simply work hard and do good work – you can really reach the stars. His Read more…
Got the next Sonnyboo Podcast written for this week to shoot. It’s a good discipline to keep writing and shooting often even if you, and almost especially if, you don’t feel like doing it. I have to find the balance between burning myself out when the inspiration is so hot Read more…
Editing a new FRAMELINES piece, a follow up on our very first story – Mickey Fisher. Since this piece is going to play in front of a live audience before the premiere of his CBS series EXTANT, I figured I’d pull out all the stops with finishing and color correction. Read more…
The new Movie Cliché is finished and online. Another 3 are on deck. I have some time coming up where I won’t be teaching as much. That will be the perfect window to shoot some more of these. In the mean time, I can do a few more Sonnyboo Podcasts Read more…
