Films section online...your childhood still held hostage by a blunt-skull
After many long months the film section is up!
Currently featuring my student work, there are
two movies there now. The Amazing
Spider-Fan was my very first short film.
Made with my good friends Ben and Tony, the film
also features what I would estimate to be the
<sarcasm> most realistic
CGI spider ever put on screen. I mean you've
just got to see this thing to believe
it.</sarcasm> Shot it in an afternoon at
Tony's place, it was fun to make, and still fun
to watch.
Conversations Behind the Red Velvet Curtain was the last film I made in college; a real turning point kind of moment in my life. It was the movie that really defined the kind of film maker I continue to work towards becoming. This movie also established a link between my work and my friend and writing partner Grant's (check out his work at staproductions.net). What began as a series of shout-outs to each other's films has evolved into a sprawling mythology that we're in the midst of writing even now. The film is online (featuring two commentary tracks by the cast & crew) along with an accompanying photo gallery.
And in other news...
As you may or may not
be aware, here at Ragnarok Pictures we
(which is to say I) are committed to nothing
short of the unconditional surrender of
Michael Bayz. So as Christmas approaches,
take a moment to think about what you can do
to help the cause. For example, just over
the weekend I found four copies of
Michael Bayz' Transformers (which in
the original latin translates to: Your
Childhood Held Hostage) at a local
second-hand store. Of course I bought them
all (thus taking them out of circulation
without putting a dime in Bayz' pockets or
Paramount/Dreamworks for that matter) and
I'm here to tell you, if you turn them gold
side-up, they make the best coasters
imaginable. After a Friday night cradling
many bottles of delicious Leinenkugel's
Red, they are scratched beyond all
recognition, thus ensuring they will never
again see the interior of a DVD player. Its
not much, but I like to think of it as the
proverbial butterfly flapping its wings in
Peking.
