fuck. do you really think your shit's gonna go somewhere? I mean, ok, yeah.. your stuff is just OK.. but then what? what are you gonna do with it? It hits a dead end and it becomes one of the millions upon if not millions. if I ever offered one tidbit of advice then here it is. USE REAL ACTORS. real actors are good actors. I stopped putting myself and my friends in my fucking movies years ago. NETWORKING. I have that. Do you? probably not. most of you are socially inept. IDK dude you're hopeless if you think your shit is good. RULE #11: THERES SOMETHING WRONG IF YOU START LIKING YOUR OWN WORK. I will admit, I have never liked any of the things I've made. (but thats the way we're supposed to think.) You have to know that this is the biggest gamble of your fucking life. I know this. and thats why I'd do whatever it takes to get this right. Like I always say Anyone can work in the industry, but you'd have to be crazy to stay in it. and judging from what I've seen from you. You play it safe. textbook. BORING,... Crazy? You are not.
(Of course I'm talking to myself, but if you happen to swing by this blog and feel offended by this, then maybe I am talking to you?)

The dead in question
In keeping with today's motif. I've been working on a story about a guy that buys a used car. He got a grand taken off the price due to the fact that there's a dead girl's ghost siting in the back seat. I'd say thats a bargain.
Oh yeah, this is how funny the people around me are. I get a call at 3am from seth. And all he was thinking about was the Banana scene. (the picture of adam with a banana, see posts below.) He's developing a story called Heterosapien. jeez.
Susie Q
I remembered this old made for tv Disney movie called Susie Q. I just downloaded it and I'm totally reliving some childhood memories. haha. The film stars Justin Whalin andAmy Jo Johnson. Or you may remember her as the original Pink Power Ranger. Its the story about a new kid that moves in to a house and he meets this dead girl. It sounds cooler than it is.

We Were Perfect
So The Kitchen Sink has been really busy. Our Bandcamp has a lot of our demos up. Pretty much all works in progress. And super rough. getting a lot of positive feedback so I guess thats good...
I started PreProduction for Blood Runners Last night.. So far I'm looking at a Cast/Crew of 10+ people. damnnnnn. This is gonna be a fun one. July 31st is the point of no return. If I don't have everything set up by then. Then I'll have to push it back. Everyone says I know a lot of people, or that I have lots of connections and sway to get the ball rolling. Apparently I've built up a reputation for being able to get shit done. And they say I can save a project in shambles. Lets hope theyre right.

Good Morning Monday
So I put a crapload of songs on our bandcamp site. I labeled the album as "The Digital Shit". Its all the techno-ish kinda stuff that we've been working on the side. It has a really wide range of styles. I hope it shows a little dimension to our music.
So I guess the next script that we're gonna try to get produced is As Tranquil As A Catnap. Adam, Seth and I wrote that script one night. Whats funny about that one is the fact that we each took one of the three characters and just acted it out in Adam's room while simultaneously typing out the dialogue. It was certainly a different approach to writing. And that was like more than a year ago already.
Here's a photo of the latest project we shot. I'm not gonna say the name of it cause that will give the joke away. haha.
