I’ve got a few things on the horizon I wanted to let you know about.
First of all, a lot of people want to know what the big delay is on making my directorial debut public, especially since the movie has been complete since November. Well, there are two things keeping it under wraps. First, the ending credits are incomplete. Some credits were thrown onto the current copy just so we could make the deadline on a couple of film festivals; we planned to correct them before exhibition. I worked with a lot of great people for free, so the least I can do is ensure that they’re credited correctly. So my producer is fixing that the first chance she gets. I shouldn’t detail the second reason publicly, but I can tell you that there’s just a bit of remaining red tape that it takes time to cut through before we’re allowed to exhibit the film.
In short, we plan to have the film online anytime now. Hopefully, it won’t stay in limbo for more than a few more days.
Currently, I’m in the midst of a much smaller project I’m directing and co-producing from my own script. It’s an experimental horror short told through “found footage,” a technique used in independent films The Blair Witch Project and Paranormal Activity. We’ll shoot it next weekend, and it will be cut and released online in mid-March. I have another short film project that I’m starting to put together to shoot in the spring, but I’m keeping a lid on details until we’re closer to shooting (hint: it’s really exciting).
Finally, I’ve been hired by a local studio to write the screenplay for a feature (maybe?) film from a producer’s outline. He and I have had a few conversations about the story and characters, but we’re still in the early stages of figuring this thing out. Needless to say, it’s a very cool project being made by some very talented people, and I can’t wait to delve deeper into it.
So that’s what’s on the schedule for the next few months. And if anybody’s wondering, YES, I AM AVAILABLE FOR PAID WORK. Trust me, I’ll make time. I’m very flexible.
