New short: "Mosquito Season"

We've been hard at work. We've been doing a lot. We've been making shorts, movies, and many more things that you will see soon. Today, you get to see one of these that we've been working so hard on for the past couple months:

"Mosquito Season"

They grow up so fast. Here's me at the post office mailing in a rough cut of "Mosquito Season" to a film festival in Atlanta.

The Journey...

"When you're working on your film, you never come home alone."
Michael Belmont, aka Mdotstrange.

I've been working on Chainsaw Diaries since august and the hope is to have it done by this coming August. I've been trying to make a feature film since before I could really percieve what that meant. When I was sixteen I saw Mdotstrange's WE ARE THE STRANGE, a bizzare patchwork quilt of a movie. It mad me realize, not only could I make a movie, I would make a movie.
Check out his podcast, by the way.

Meanwhile, soon I will be releasing part 1 of The Chainsaw  Diaries, with the name MOSQUITO SEASON. While the feature film version will contain more scenes and better character development, Mosquito Season will work as a self contained story.

Chainsaw Diaries Update

In an effort to boost publicity for the film, we are submitting the first segment of THE CHAINSAW DIARIES, tentatively titled MOSQUITO SEASON to a number of festivals this May. Here's a few shots from the film.

A few scenes were also done using a camera I was able to borrow from my film school.

And while we're posting pictures, here's an old one of me and Nick on our first film together, Creeps, Critters and Croations. This picture makes me laugh. The corpse is Alex Marante, whom I can assure you is alive and well. Alive at least. Look at all that blood. And we didn't get a drop on the carpet.

The Go Green Jet Pack!!!

That's correct, you read it right: A jetpack. Here are a few simple rules to follow in creating a jet pack:

First, follow the first rules from my previous post, "Go Green with a Bang!!", and gather your supplies and clean them. Then Follow:

First, cut two plastic bottles in half.

Then, fit each bottle and their halves on two other plastic bottles to make them look long and tube like. Then duct tape em together and spray pain them how you wish.

Next: take an old back pack and with a card board box, I used a 24 pack beer box, wrap it around the back pack in a triangle shape with the flat par on the back end.

Duct tape the two bottles on.

You can then decorate the pack however you want. You could put fins on the sided like a Buck Rogers sort of thing.

You will see this back pack in our next short. Until then, keep watching.
