SDCC 09: History is Made as REPO! Shadowcast is Streamed LIVE Around the World

-

If you have been following my adventures online you know that I am full on in Documentary mode. I have been following around the Film Repo for quite some time, and a few months back it was glaringly apparent that there is a story here that needed to be told. I was admittedly hesitant to get onboard to the extent that I have, but I am very happy to have been on this journey. A journey that has taken me all over the world and back, a few times! The finale to this is going to be at Comic Con on July 25th, and I hope to see you all there.

So as I enter into the editing phase of the process I am struck with a decision…what’s next? We all know that the best time to get a job is when you already have one…so what do “I” do next? Back to one of my many side projects (puppets ,Pirate TV, Screenplay)

Do I maybe get a day job, or do another fandom documentary? I have always wanted to make a “real” movie (who hasn’t?) Or I could even follow Repo on further adventures.

But the more I think on this decision, the more I realize that I real am missing the horror scene. It’s something I still talk about on a daily basis. And a few VERY INTERESTING prospects had come up. So while I weigh in all the options (and feverishly edit away on the Repo documentary) I want to know your opinion. But not so much about me and what to do next, but rather what criteria YOU use to help you decide on the next phase of your life when you see it looking you dead in the face.

Obviously I want to do something I love, and I hope that all of you do the same, BUT what are the criteria to make a big life change? What is most important to you, and why? Read the rest of this entry »

Hey Creeps

I just wanted to let everyone know of the upcoming week of REPO in Toronto, and of the other Repo! Madness that is headed your way. The Shadow Cats are tearing up their city with awesomeness! http://www.reposhadowcats.com. I am happy to announce that I will be there filming much of these events for the Repo Documentary, so come out and introduce yourself, and we can talk all about REPO on camera!

I know it has been a really long time since I have written a blog, so forgive the scatterbrained mess. It’s been a busy month!

Artwork:
First, I updated my Deviant art gallery with some artwork that I have been doing over the past year. I have about 5 more pieces that I need to scan to upload, so those should be up soon. While my life has been so crazy busy, one of the things I enjoy doing is painting and doing digital artwork, it keeps me sane. I have not tried to sell any artwork yet, but, I am considering it.

Check out the gallery here:

Movies:
Star Trek: Awesome, I saw it twice!
Terminator: blah… but descent.
Drag Me To Hell: a great return of Raimi to his horror roots, with all the goofiness that we have come to love and expect.
Transformers 2: haven’t seen it yet, but I suppose I will try to make some time for it
Anvil: One of the best films I have seen in years. Seek this one out!
Dead Snow: I am hearing so many mixed reviews of this, and they all make me really excited about it. It is certainly on the top of my must see list, way above Transformers 2.

Music:
In constant rotation: Slipknot, New Marilyn Manson, old Jane’s Addiction, mixed up Guns and Roses, a ton of Aesthetic Perfection! And of course Bale Out has been getting the most play on my Ipod.
