Alisha Rayne from Bzzzline.com let me know yesterday that they've put up a blog with all of the filmmaker interviews, including myself! Y'all know how weird I am about interviews, but that doesn't prevent me from sharing myself with the world when I can (even when I'm beset with one of the worst outbreaks of rosacea I've had in a long time) so here I am, in all of my red-faced glory! I suggest watching the whole thing, of course, but if you really just want to see me, I'm near the end of the third video down on the blog.
Bzzzline.com: BleedFest, a Badass Film Festival!
Huge thanks go to Alisha Rayne and Jeffrey Damnit and their crew for conducting the interviews and, of course, to the Fies Sisters and all of the wonderful women at BleedFest!!

More from the World Music and Independent Film Festival
I was interviewed recently by Laura Hartman of the World Music and Independent Film Festival where this past year, the music video I made for World Collision was nominated for Best Cinematography and Best Alternative Rock Video. The interview can be found by clicking here.
I have something exciting to announce, too, that does tie in to my interview in a round about way. Hallowscreen was an amazing experience and I met some truly fantastic people because of it. Among those I met are Sage Hall and Jesse Kozel who made the short film Candy. They're making another short film next week and I've volunteered my services for pretty much whatever they need. It's been a long time since I was on someone else's set so I'm really looking forward to, well, everything! I volunteered to do whatever they need. I have no problem with going from the captain of the ship to being a deckhand. All positions are necessary and if I can help in anyway to make their dreams come true, then I'll be happy!
I believe in supporting the community, of helping each other when and if possible. I know that film is a business and that it's very competitive, but like they say in Second City: if the other guy looks good then everyone looks good. I heard that twice this week (once on the Ghostbusters commentary from Harold Ramis and once on a random interview with Bill Murray that was on TCM) and I really like that philosophy.
In other news, I finished the second draft of a new feature script the other day. This one is one I've been trying to write for years, but it just didn't want to come out. I'm very happy with it and want to start on the third draft, but I need to do this short film first since I plan on shooting it early next year. On that front, I re-started the storyboards last night. I was using a computer program to hand draw them (don't ask) and it was okay at first, but the program locked up on the fourth page and wouldn't let me erase or edit so I had to restart it. It's all good, I'm a terrible artist, but I think I prefer to be terrible on physical media anyway.
I may have more to announce soon, but I'll wait until I have confirmation. For now, keep screaming!
