Feature Script
Currently writing the second draft of my feature script (well, planing out scenes in index card form). I am Taking ideas that were good from the first draft, throwing away all the bad stuff, and writing new scenes that I hope move the story forward.
Listening to Iron and Wine as I brainstorm this creative process!

"On The Spot" by The Twees →
Anyone close to me probably knows the story of A B & The Sea, and about the music videos I directed for them that will never be seen on account of their manager. All I can do is move forward…and that I did.
The Twees released their first music video that I had the honor of directing. I want to write a bit about how our collaboration came to be.
About two years ago I was randomly...

The Music Video Process (The last Music Video...
I believe good things come in threes. Just look at Back to the Future, Lord of the Rings, and The Evil Dead. Yes, a trilogy. I guess I could call this my tri-blog-ology.
I want to lay this whole mess to rest with my directing/producing journey about the music video that will most likely never be seen.
After I finished directing the first music video for the band (which never saw internet life...

Regarding E-mail Discussions With A Band Manager
Some people (like probably six people) read my post regarding my previous blog, so I felt it necessary to clear up some confusion. Please also know that my beef is not with the band, but with the band manager. As I know right now, my relationship with the band members is strong. At least I hope it is.
I am someone who is passionate about writing and directing films. My mind is cluttered with...

Hi (Cool band manager I respect),
So the ice cream parlor where we shot the music video is getting a write-up in the Chronicle, and the owner wants a link to the music video (he’s going to mention how a local indie band supported the indie ice cream parlor). Pretty cool I think. Is it OK if I give them my vimeo link to the music video? Might be good exposure for the band. I’ll...

To whomever reads this,
I’ve started to write on this site because I feel I have things to say that need to be said. Not that they are important life shattering words that will change people’s lives (although you never know I suppose), but they are words that are at least meaningful to me. So maybe I’m just writing to myself? I kind of hope not cause I like it when people read...
