Finished the Sonnyboo Podcast on Director’s Cut versus Special Editions, then put it online. Already this got decent responses. These trivial informational pieces are nothing more than a stopgap for a creative outlet for myself. Still, I enjoy making them and there is an audience building for them. The key Read more…
Okay, lost the house. Haven’t been able to finish my edits. Life is hell right now. Panic mode kicked in on Saturday, and has continued pretty consistently since then 24-7. I was supposed to finish an edit for work, an edit for the Sonnyboo Podcast, and I did manage to Read more…
Having a ton of trouble staying focused this week. Been attacking the FX on the Sonnyboo Podcast, but man oh man, I should have been able to bang this out fast. Instead, it’s 20 minutes here, 10 minutes there, and nary a finished podcast there isn’t. It doesn’t help that Read more…
Started working on the next Sonnyboo Podcast, and will try to whittle away at this today and tonight whenever I get a chance. Will probably be done in a day or less. I’m trying something different, using clips from an actual movie using the FAIR USE LAWS that permit it’s Read more…
Got some simple CGI animation done for one of the Movie Clichés, and also the sound mix for that example. That one is pretty close to finished, just need the final touches, and flourishes on the host segment and then – BAMM! 1 more down, 29 more to go. My Read more…
I have really really bad news….. I’m going to keep making more and more movies of all types. I’m going to keep writing articles. I’m going to continue making my TV shows. I have no intention of slowing down in the slightest in my promotion of all of these things. Read more…
I promote my movies online. A lot. There is nothing new or even original about this. I make movies because I want them to be seen by as many people as possible. I am incredibly proud of the actors, the camera work, and everyone who helped make the movie. I Read more…
Put out the latest Movie Cliché clip (see below). It felt really good to get this done then put it out into the world. It took so long, much longer than it should have. It’s done now. That’s what counts. I really hope this finds its way out into an Read more…
So, got another Emmy nomination. Totally rad. To be honest, I was not expecting it. I feel what I submitted this year was inferior to what I sent last year, which means, winning is a LOT less likely. That’s okay; that isn’t the point really, at least for me. I Read more…
Got the first pass of the sound mix last night. 90% there already. That means stepping up my host segment final tweaks, getting this thing ready for release on Friday. No one is particularly waiting for this, nor is there any anticipation. I just want to do this for me. Read more…
So I missed my mark of having all 5 pieces edited from last weeks shoot. Instead, I did get 4 done and I watched several movies outside of doing some other work. I feel pretty darn good about what has been accomplished thus far. I’m still on track for a Read more…
Got most of the stuff from last Sunday’s shoot edited for picture lock. No color correction, no visual FX, no sound design or mix yet, but getting the picture lock begins all those other processes. Five pieces cut in 3 days demonstrates a significant improvement in my acumen of late. Read more…
