So now that the dirty deed is done with the BloodRayne Fan Film... and now that you've laughed your head off at me for being such a massive geek, what's next? Well, I've decided to develop and do a bunch of other film shorts just to hone in on my writing (I CAN'T BELIEVE I'M WRITING - I'm not a writer, or an artist, or a musician, or a dancer, or a martial artist, yet I can do all those things quite well)... anymahoo...
Hey! Did I tell anybody that I work quite a bit as a HAND MODEL? All this time I spend trying to stay in shape and crap and MY HANDS are the thing that is in demand the most? *sigh* It's even worse than you think. I'm a children's hand model. That 12 inch Hanna Montana Barbie commercial? ME. Narnia action figures? ME. Hallmark movie promo? ME. And so on... Well, the compilation prize for that is that I get endless amusement from saying that I'm off to do a "hand job".
I've got two film shorts I'll be producing this summer in quick succession: One is called "The Toilet" a very classy tale about the day in the life and another called "In the Apartment Building of Good & Evil" a pun on the movie title "In the Garden of Good and Evil". No gay Kevin Spacey or Jude Law I promise. Both will be very easy to do and it's more for my own personal training behind the camera and learning to edit and do FX. I actually learned how to rotoscope on BR. 8 HOURS OF WORK FOR 3 SECONDS OF FOOTAGE!!!! The amount of effort we put into that thing is astounding.
Now that that is done... I'm bored... I don't drink, smoke, do drugs, party... being straight edge is "boring" so I need to put my energy into something, anything. So hopefully within the scope of this summer of '08, you'll be seeing a couple of other short films. What I'm trying to gear up for is my own feature length film. Wish me luck kids.
