Taking the Moment
I’m not a creative person. Now typing that “out loud” might elicit some “of course you ares”, and that’s super sweet, but I’m ok with it. I promise no one is going to compel you into including that in my eulogy. The truth is my brain is simply not wired that way or perhaps it’s…

Family Update: My Summer Vacation
It’s that special time of year when I use my blog to update my family and friends in a way that will bore the snot out of you if you don’t know me personally (and likely if you do, but you’ll feel forced to trudge through out of fear I might present you with a…

A Big Win
Several weeks ago Richard, you know Richard – remember that time you and Richard…? Of course you do. Anyway, Richard contacted the gang, you know the gang (do we have to do this again?) and presented us with a 1 minute film contest. The contest, put on by Project ED, was to pick a scary…

I do…

2012 In Review
Here we are at the end of 2012 and what a great year it has been. While I don’t have a Top 10, I thought I’d run through some of the personal highlights that made this year so great. Now I fully accept that I may be the only person interested in this, but by…

Dunes
I’ve waited over a month, but I’m so excited I couldn’t wait any longer to announce (and update family and such): In two short weeks we’ll be shooting my second sketch titled Dunes. I’ve got a knock-out cast and the best crew that a director, offering free food and snacks, could ask for. Let’s hear…
