I know I've been MIA for a while, but personal life trumps filmmaking life. :) Anyway, my four-part web series Genrefinity is now available for purchase through CreateSpace and Amazon. It has maintained a 92% cumulative rating on Funny or Die, and we are now selling it in hopes of drumming up...

You can view all four parts of Genrefinity: The Complete Series on my Vimeo album. It's a web comedy series that is a little crass, and a little like early Kevin Smith. Enjoy! http://vimeo.com/album/1685620

The second episode of "Genrefinity: The Series" is now up. Let me know what you think. http://www.funnyordie.com/genrefinity/playlists/303398?item=1

I've posted the "pre-release" version of Genrefinity: The Series - Episode 1 and am looking for feedback. Genrefinity is an episodic web comedy series about three socially awkward friends attempting to launch the next big social networking site. If they can survive each others insults...

"The Irresponsible Mrs. Pennywise" is complete and on it's way to the UK as well as four other festivals here in the states. While it hasn't officially been released yet on the production companies site (I'm waiting until after it's premiere in Chicago on Thurs.) I thought I'd let those...

Hi everyone. I've been absent lately due to production on a new short film, "The Irresponsible Mrs. Pennywise". Unlike "The Quiet Darkness" and "The Bottom Down" we took a little more time for production (two days as opposed to one) and shot in HD with 35mm lenses. I have about a week to edit...

I'm currently working on a character breakdown. Several scenes call for nudity. I've looked at a few example character breakdowns and have seen "NUDITY REQUIRED" as well as "PARTIAL NUDITY REQUIRED". What's the difference between the two? One is full frontal nudity the other is waist up? Or...

What's up with the YouTube video at the top of the main IndieTalk page? It's very annoying.

I've seen other discussions relating to HD-DVD vs Blu-Ray. Both sides have their passionate followers, those of which usually get into childish name calling. I'm curious what people think here. Do you think HD-DVD will win or Blu-Ray? Why? I'm torn myself. Blu-Ray claims to sell 2:1 as...

It's on its way from Netflix! Can't wait to watch it.

Disregard.

I saw this on another forum. Pretty clever I'd say. "Sure, Apple TV is pretty close to useless if you wanna watch stuff on your television. But it's a godsend to at least one independent filmmaker." Read the full article at http://www.theregister.co.uk/2007/11/14/appletv_goes_to_the_movies/

So this weekend we shot a new short film for the Halloween Horror Challenge 2007. The shoot began at 2 a.m. on Sat. at a local bar and we wrapped around 10 a.m. On Dead in the Water we managed to shoot 10 pages in about 14 hours... on this short we did 10 pages in 8. Overall I'm pleased with...

Today marks the release of Dead in the Water throughout North America! Go to your local video rental or retail store and pick up a copy. If they don't have the DVD demand it! You can also order online through Amazon or Barnes & Noble. As of today we are currently ranked #7 in Amazon's...

Anyone participating in it this year? We're planning on submitting something.

If you're in the Chicago area and want to see Dead in the Water on the big screen you now have an opportunity to do so. Facets and IFP/Chicago will be doing a screening at Facets Theater (1517 W. Fullerton Ave.) on Sept. 19 at 9:00 p.m. Ticket prices are generally around $5. Several cast and...

As I've mentioned previously my first feature film, DEAD IN THE WATER, was acquired for N. American distribution by Indican Pictures. Even though the release date has been pushed back to Sept. 25 from Aug. 7 (they wanted a release date closer to Halloween) I wanted to share with your the cover...

For my next project I'm looking to the state for support in financing since I don't know any wealthy individuals. The state offers state residents a loan program with certified financial institutions (i.e. banks). While I don't intend to make a film that tanks their is always the possibility...

Several months ago someone told me that the state of Illinois had an incentive program to fund films in the state. I have since lost the link and can't seem to find it. Does anyone know the link? It's not the tax incentive program but a state funding program that will fund your film so long...

Anyone familiar with this company? Good? Bad? I've recently submitted my information (and sent in a copy of my script) but would like to know what I'm getting myself into, assuming there is something to get into. Anyone? Thoughts? Stories?
