WELL. Where do I even begin?

I did it. I landed a lead role in a feature film. We shoot in Punjab, India for two months…I leave in a month, at the end of September!

People keep asking how excited I am, if I’m jumping around all the time.

The answer is “no.” Yes, I’m excited–of course I am! But I haven’t… Continue

Music Video

Together with Matt Anderson of Film Forge Studios (Conifer, CO), I have filmed my first music video. The song is "This Too Shall Pass." The video is in final editing, and will be submitted to film festivals for late 2009 and early 2010. Thanks to Sam Urdank for taking the official still photos at the lake on Day #2 of the 3 day shoot. (Since it is being submitted to festivals, it will be a little while before it is available for public viewing.) This video turned out absolutely amazing--as did… Continue

Making the most of networking receptions

There is good and bad chatter on the Net regarding conference style expos and seminars for film industry folks. I am a positive person that sees any event as an opportunity. My approach is...do your homework and then jump in as an informed participant.

My limited experience is that networking receptions are often populated with people looking to advance their business, product, services or other personal goals. I plan to attend a screenwriting expo in LA this October. The event… Continue

Screen Adaptation Ins-and-Outs

Hello,

I continue to mull over an idea of adapting a short story I read when I was a teenager. The original publication was 1900. Despite my scouring of the Net for a concise answer to my questions regarding rights and ownership, I remain empty handed. Does anybody know or can you direct me to where I may find some legal advice or a resource of basic rules? My guess is that because the work is over a hundred years old that the it may be fair game.

Does anybody out there… Continue

Too Excited Not to Share!!!

Need a few locations....help a brother out?

Hey folks, we are needing a few locations in the near future, and were wondering if you fine people might be able to help us out.

We need:

An office to be used as a politician's office.

The Good, the Bad, the Coloradan.

Hello all, I figured I'd stop in mid-shoot on our film 'The Future Belongs to Undead Gods' to do a bit of ranting and raving.

First of all, let me tell you that I have been lucky [or is it luck?] to find such wonderful actors here in the Denver area. Some you know, some you may not.

Our lead, Kayla Farris is an absolute joy to work with. She manages to stay perfectly in character through the blood-soaked hardships one encounters in a horror movie shoot.

Steve Brown,… Continue

Follow your own path......... no matter what your family says!

You know how you see all of those interviews with celebraties and they always talk about how their family was so supportive? Well, what happens when your family isn't but your siginificant other is? Could there still be success? Could you still be successful with one person having your back? For some reason I care too much about what others think, in my family, and not having their support is driving me crazy!!

Since I was laid off in December, I have been looking for full time work.… Continue

2009 Screenwriting Expo

Howdy!

I am heading to the 2009 Screenwriting Expo LA in October. If you are attending I'd like to hook up and meet fellow screenwriters. Perhaps we can even meet beforehand to talk about marketing strategy or just inspire one another to press on.

Love to hear your ideas for connecting in LA or before.
