Updating The Update

      Rewrites done, artwork on it's way, most importantly I have another producer on board.

     The very talented and awesome guy, Nicholas Veneroso agreed to come on board and be my co-producer. We worked together at Big Frame and he was my AD on 5 Minute FX. Since then he's been working with Jash and Omaze (Let me know how very much I left out, Nick). Not only am I incredibly happy I have someone who knows what he's doing, but to have a great friend I have worked with before is GREAT!! YAY NICK!!

     I have also touched base with my awesome (yes, everyone I know is freakin' awesome) editor, DJ Sing. Both Paddy and I have worked with him and after 5 Minute FX, DJ and I have a shorthand with our communication. He makes everything look great and I like having someone I know and trust be in charge of the edit. The story is told in the edit. I just wish he lived in CA and not so far, far away.

     Lastly, the avatar for the social media was created by Pat Connelly. Yes, the uber talented and incredibly awesome Pat Connelly. Yes, THAT Pat Connelly. Pat will always, always be on my short list of people I would drop everything and help out if he needed me to. He's done so much for our short films including the memorizing 'Kicky Punchy'.

     A schedule has been made and now we're in pre campaign for the Indie Go Go campaign, just to get buzz going. The last thing I want to do is bug people I know to donate. That's a great way to lose friends. I do believe I'm going to need my friends.

     So for right now, things are going great.... and AWESOME! 

   

Flying With Friends

I finally got in touch with a stunt man and found out what I will need, financially, to fly people. Now I need to talk to my VFX sup and find out if we really need to fly people. It’s freakin’ pricey and I’m not going to skimp on something as dangerous as hooking actors into a rig and flying them over a green screen. 5 people to work the rig and an on-set medic – that’s not including the time to set it up.  Fake it with a jib… maybe? Secure them with a rope? Bah!

I think the next thing to do is talk to a very, very good friend of mine. Someone I trust and worked with on 5 Minute FX, to co-produce. I think I need someone outside ourselves to give me perspective on what needs to be done. I don’t want him to DO everything, just to be my mirror, or my leaf blower – someone to clear the fog. I won’t say who it is, until I speak to him, but I do hope he’d be onboard.  

Not much else happening right now, just working and trying not to blow a fuse on anybody.

:) HAPPY FACE!!!

5 Minute FX

5 Minute FX

We had a good run of 5 Minute FX. Just after 5 episodes and we were nominated for an IAWTV award for best hosted (taped) show. After a year we were up for a Webby. Here's a taste.

But alas, we will not be coming back for a season 2, then again all of Bammo won't be coming back for a season 2.

I am proud of the work I did with the Bammo channel, and I'm glad the show got recognized in the world of the webseries.
