End of Year Wrap-Ups and New Film Updates

The year is underway and many business endeavors are moving. It has been a good week of organizing and prepping for new business. I’ve also been getting some good training in for the new year. That is mostly for the soccer field but doesn’t hurt for camera work either. I know many of you are putting your new year resolutions into play. Let’s look at some of the new actions in motion.

1) We are about to PR “7 Stones” now available on VOD.

2) Discussions are underway on a few new biblical films after it was reported that we have the highest grossing biblical film with our distributor. We had some good talks over this property.

3) Our director Shane Hagedorn is in studio doing a music check today on “Ashes of Eden” and we are excited as this film nears the finish line. Early distribution talks have started and many are just waiting to see our full story.

4) “Bestseller” is now officially in editing and we should have a rough cut in about a month. We are all excited to see this film moving to the next phase. I’ve had several good talks about what will follow “Bestseller” and soon we may have a sure direction. I am getting distributor input on all these ideas.

5) I’ve been having some literary agent talks after a recent option/purchase agreement on one of my script properties. I think that scripts that I do not see as an acting vehicle I may consider selling. There will be more PR on this as it develops.

6) We’ve had some interest in possible financing on “Soul Eater” my prequel to “The 8th Plague” so that was submitted last week and now we wait.

7) New foreign territory and TV Network talks started this week. We will see what develops from all of that.

8) I need to get new updates on “Donors” and “The Terrorist” but I know both are very close and will be coming to market this year.

Aside from all this I have been prepping some of the end of the year business work for taxes and such. It is the less exciting aspects of filmmaking but so very important.  I hope you all are staying focused and enjoying your first month of 2014. It was a week of steady business and that always leads to something exciting.

Happy Saturday!

    I’m very much looking forward to the release of ‘Bestseller’.

    Are there any updates for ‘A Race to Judgment’??
