Our cast rocks the socks off Ashland.
I’ve spent the last few days in Ashland Oregon and have been kicking myself that I have no photos!! I brought my camera, but never had time to go buy batteries. The mountain ranges are incredible - evergreens wrapping around one side, and grass rolling off on the other. THE NEW YEAR PARADE was awarded the [...]
late shift
I’m sitting here feeding tapes to the machine so I can get my timeline re-digitized at 23.976 fps. If you cut your film at 29.97, but shot in 24p or 23.976 people might tell you you are going to have to overcut your whole movie. But I found an editor on Craigslist who [...]

Sunny Florida
Amid all the craziness leading up to SXSW, I want to make sure that we don’t let our other great news slip through the cracks: the Florida Film Festival has announced their lineup for 2008, and “Rainbow Around the Sun” will be competing in the narrative features category!
We’ll have two screenings at the festival, [...]
Seven Days and Counting…
It’s one week before the world premiere of “Rainbow Around the Sun,” and my nervousness has finally given way to an overwhelming sense of excitement. Our master screening copy is in SXSW’s able hands, and with the technical side of things out of our hands, we’re able to focus on our ground game going [...]
Getting Back to Roots
Last week, as we wrapped getting the festival cut for “Rainbow Around the Sun” mastered, a sense of release came over us. It’s been a productive year and a half working on our first feature, and to be honest, it’s overshadowed some of the smaller things.
Matthew, Kevin and myself first started working together about [...]
It happened again.
It happened again.
U.S. Marine Staff Sgt. Tyrone Hadnott was arrested last week on charges of raping a 14-year-old girl in Okinawa, where Hadnott is stationed. The attack is eerily similar to the 1995 assault by three U.S. servicemen on an Okinawan girl that inspired our film The First Breath of Tengan Rei. The [...]
