Wednesday night...
I'm starting to plan the next Indie City screening party.
I just got permission to use a cool new song for the next CATCH episode.
The Yankees have won 5 straight.
I'm in a good mood....
So the next Indie City Entertainment party is going to happen the first week of August...lilkely to be Thursday August 7th. We have had the first few I.C.E. parties at THE BRIDGE in Universal City...but the party promoter there has not returned my calls...and I think she is upset with me because she was expecting us to have a party there on the first Thursday in JULY... I made the decision to NOT have a party in early July...due to the holiday... and neglected to give her a heads up.... so she got a little pissy with me...
If she wont work with me on the next party...I will find another place to hold the event... simple as that... keep moving forward... forward...forward...
I'm obsessed with moving forward.
I'm expecting to have a few good things to show at the next event. First off...the LONG awaited follow up to CATCH: Episode One... appropriately titled CATCH: Episode Two. Ideally, I would love to be able to release a new episod every month...but when you are actiung as a producer working on favors and good will (And NOT cold hard cash), timetables and deadlines are sort of hard to mandate, implement or expedite...LIFE has a tendency to get in the way... so here we are...TWO months after the release of Episode One...
I'm also planning on screening a trailer and Episode One of the "yet to be titled" sit com series that I produced and shot last Summer in New York. The series was co written by myself and Marcus Jones...a playwrite I worked with last year. The series is about a screw ball acting school and al the funny things that go on inside...and OUTSIDE...The Actors Studio....
(Hey, maybe there's the name)
On top of all that...We will be showing THE PLAYING FIELD, which is our submission to the 2008 Los Angeles 48 Hr Film Project... a film that was surprisingly chosen as a finalist.... one of the "Best of LA 2008."
Now I just have to find a suitable venue... I'll let you know.
(I'm drinking some really good Shiraz right now. Just thought I'd share)
So the good news of the day is that I received the following email from a rep for a band called THE GAY BLADES :
Sorry I've been so MIA. Just got back home yesterday morning from a pretty grueling tour. Feel free to use the track "O Shot". Please just include artist information once its done and a promise that if you make it big time, you can purchase the usage at a fair price.
The Gay Blades
"O Shot"
Ghosts, 2008
4Never Records/Triple Crown Records
Check it out...the song and the band was referred to me by a friend and I one I heard it I instantly recognized it is being perfect for the closing of the next CATCH episode... I might even try and stretch the favor and use it for a couple more... sort of as a temporary theme song... its perfect...it really is...and its a kick ass song either way
(Thank you Thank you Thank you)
Did I mention the Yanks have won FIVE straight... good stuff man... I'm gonna try and catch a game at the stadium when I'm back in New York the last week of August... a few days at the Jersey Shore with my brother, his wife and my little Tasmanian nephews...a few days in New York...one last night at the legendary...soon to be torn down... Yankee stadium....and all is right with the world.
Speaking of my Tasmanian nephews... I got a letter in the mail two days ago from my brother and he had folded up a few of Keller's drawings and shipped them out to Califonia for me too loo over...the note attached said... I'm reading from it right now...
Keller wanted to share some of his Monsters. he is hoping you can draw some in return and send them back.
Are you KIDDING ME? HELL YEAH!!
I was walking in the door as I red the note...I literally dropped everything I was holding and immediately pulled out my sketch pad and magic markers. I don't think I even ate dinner. There was nothing in the world that I would rather have been doing than drawing pictures of Monsters for that kid. It was amazingly theraputic. I mean...happy to do it for Keller...even happier to do it for ME...I loved the idea of seeing his sketches...and love the idea of sending some my own sketches back... But he has no idea how badly I needed that.
I mean he's only like...FIVE.
(I probably over did it. I send him so pretty elaborate MuthaF%$#@ monsters)
Ok...that being said....
How about some more pictures of ME?
