Turned In, and Totally Recovered

Sunday night, we headed over to JAX Grill on Shepherd in Houston for the 48 hour Film project completion. I had Izzy on my arm, so unfortunately no pics, but I'm hoping to get something from the rest of the team soon to post up here.

Weekend closing thoughts:
-Really wish we would have been able to get some more footage in the flick. There was really just so much funny stuff, but it did not push the story along, it was just funny for the sake of being funny.
-Maybe we will get a chance to do an extended cut for festival submissions if we think its funny enough. There is some pretty raunchy stuff in there, so who knows whether fests will pick it up or not.
-We simplified everything by having one location to shoot at.
-Unfortunately, that location was a crack house.
-Fortunately, everyone was such a freaking good sport about it, that we ended up with some great footage

Thanks everybody for all of your work and efforts. I'll check back in around screenings to see what audience reaction is like.

Sunday During 48 Hour Film Project Houston 2012

Casey's working on the edit. We're working on music and other important stuff ... like breakfast (brunch now) ... and here's a pic that pretty much sums up the day yesterday ...

We Went to Hollywood

Part time Shabanger Kelli Burns and me went out to Hollywood for the DANCES WITH FILMS 2012 Film Festival. We were honored to have our video for 'I REALLY REALLY LOVE YOU (STALKER)' accepted into the festival, and screened at the Hollywood Chinese Theatre. Its that famous theatre on Hollywood blvd, only its just not called Grauman's Chinese Theatre anymore ... its just the Hollywood Chinese Theatres ...

It was an awesome time. Awesome being out in Hollywood, and having our work showcased. Can't wait to go back with something else next year. Good Times!

Out in LA for the opening of DANCES WITH FILMS 2012!

As the title says, we're currently out in HOLLYWOOD for the screening of our music video, I REALLY REALLY LOVE YOU (STALKER), at Dances with Films 2012!

Here's a great article in VARIETY MAGAZINE about the opening. We'll keep you updated if there are any further mentions through the weekend.

Had a fun experience at the mixer and red (green) carpet media event last night. I'll post pics soon.

Soooooo ... about updates.
