SofSURFACES

This is my most recent project, yet one more part of the Freedom Field Playground project.

I would like to thank Rob (the gentleman being interviewed) for all his help.

well, that problem solved

Well, I have my actors back, so now I can get back to work on my short horror film... finally.

On the other hand, I'm working on yet another vid project. This time, it's of rubber tiling. More to come early to mid next week.

I need help

For months now, I've been trying to get a short film done. I need 5 actors, and I've been able to secure 3. Last week, I had a couple of friends agree to play the last 2, but I haven't heard back from them, which, as you might guess, is a bit irritating. So, if you wish to play a man or a women old enough to have a 16 year old daughter, let me know. This is a "silent, black and white" short horror film. When I say silent, there is no dialogue but there will be a score, and when I say black and white, there may be some color. The effect will be the same.

If you live in the South Central Indiana area and are interested, please, let me know.

Pervious Concrete

This is my most recent vid. It was done for the Indiana Ready Mixed Concrete Association. This is an example of pervious concrete.

something a little different

While working like mad to find enough commerical jobs to pay for the equipment that I want/need/would like to have, occasionally, I get an oppertunity to do something completely different.

Tonight, I will be assisting Chris Chambers in a photoshot. Now, mind you, I am nothing that resembles a photographer. All the same, this should be interesting.

In other news, I've decided to do some volunteer work for the Artcraft Theatre in Franklin, IN. I grew up going to the Artcraft, and. for me, it is the defination of a movie theatre.

A job for a friend

Recently, an old friend of mine, Aimee Summitt, got ahold of me. I was fortunate enough to attend an art show in which she was presenting. Here is what I saw:

Another job... done.

okay, back to work

Well, since my last post, I've changed day jobs: I now work as a manager at Yes Cinema, which is a hell of a lot better than working at the hotel. I now work with movies all the time and my employer is giving me some interesting opportunities like using the projection booth as a workspace for editing and using the cinema as a set when it isn't open. I like both of these very much.

In other news, I'm going to be working with one Nick Gross on the silent horror short that i mentioned in the last post. We went to Murray's house last night to look over the lay of the land and we will be storyboarding early next week. It's very nice to get back to work since the job change and life in general has been slowing me down.

a fun little idea

I had an idea a few days ago while listening to Murray



play his little base.

Murray can make sounds/music/noise from that base that can scare a rational man to deal, so for us horror buffs...

Anyway, I'm going to attempt a 5-10 minute short. That's simple enough, right?

Well, here's the catch: It's silent in the sense that there will be no dialogue or ambient noise. Will be be far from silent in the sense that Murray will be putting his brand of scary music to it.

I think this is going to be a lot of fun. 

Wisconson, the final chapter (vid)

Well, we made it back home (and managed not to get arrested). Beyond that, we finished the job.

The people at The Curb Depot were great and their GT 1000 is a really cool machine. It was great to watch them and it work.

Here is the video:



So thanks to everyone in Wisconson.
