Premieres, Professionalism & New Projects

Hello friends,

It has been a great week filled with few distractions save one of my furry children had surgery on his knee but he has been so very good. Luckily resting peacefully when it is cold and winter-like is a strong suit of his. So the nice part is I don’t have any real comments from the week other than I still am waiting for communication from one or two people on some business. I guess I’m already looking past those people because if they drop the ball on something small why would you entrust them with anymore greater. It is sad but that is business. I’m not a hobbyist and so I have to keep some clear lines. Other people are really impressing me and you will see how that affects them. Those people will grow as they adapt a new way of conducting themselves. PROFESSIONAL.

Okay let’s get onto some good updates.

Business with Germany is coming full circle now as “Wicked Spring” released and “Darkest Night” will be next in April followed by “Locked in a Room”. We are in talks on additional films now.

Also we are in talks with companies in Brazil, UK, Australia, India, Asia and soon I’m confident I’ll be announcing new deals. Also many development talks underway with a handful of companies foreign and domestic. The fruits of many years work is starting to ripen.

“7 Stones” is now on the market and “Darkest Night” just released to Hulu Plus which is exciting. They have a lot of movement through there and we are excited to be reaching so many. And with the recent announcement of the resurgence of “found footage” at Berlin I see many sales ahead!

I’ve got a project that looks like it will shoot in May and so PR on that project will be released in the coming weeks. I’m excited about the genre and the role itself. Some casting will be done on this project – stay tuned for announcements.

“Soul Eater” is also making some real strides and this does look to be the year that we find out what led to “The 8th Plague”. (Great watch if you like horror/gore)

In additional to all this business/creative work I am happy to say I have another writing project on deck. The paperwork should be done end of next week and PR will also go out on that. I’m feeling blessed by all the good progress being made on many fronts. All these calls, emails and writing are perfect snow day activities so I’m just staying warm and knocking stuff down. We’ve also started serious discussions on the premiere set up for “Ashes of Eden” that will be done end of the month. Lastly, “Bestseller” rough cut is getting close and we will also be putting together some behind the scenes and the first look teaser trailer. So I’m extremely excited by all this and can’t wait for audiences/fans/you to see the work.

Enjoy your Saturday!

Casting Breakdown and CDI Updates

Once again I awoke to beautiful snow. The chill is here and now but I can see that the frozen life lies still in the ground soon to spring forth. I actually bottled up some remaining Peach wine yesterday. My amigos helped finish off the Australian beer that came out quite good. Maybe tasting like FOSTERS if you like that, I did. So my mind is on the garden this year. The wine and fermented hops and barley the sweet rewards of nature around us. As I’ve said before this is also ties very close to ourselves and what lies within. Our own potential bulbs waiting for the right conditions to spring forward and bloom.

The new year has brought great vision to where we want to go and what needs to be done. One thing I keep realizing is that everything happens in its own time. 2013 will be the time for some new stories to be released and others to be born. Plucked from the imagination, imagined by artists and manifested. Let’s discuss some manifestation.

First I encourage you to check out the http://www.cdiproductions.com which has many new updates including in the WORKING FOR CDI part. We have posted a CASTING NOTICE for a yet to be named project. Check it out:)

Actually most of the updates I would present to you are listed on the front page of the CDI site. So I will ask you to subscribe over there and read on the new CDI updates. There are some really exciting updates so again CHECK IT OUT:)

On a personal level I’ve been breaking down the script for the supporting role I shoot next month. It is a strong drama “Somnium”. I will be gone shooting for a week. I play a character named ‘Oliver’ and to say that he is complex is an understatement. That is just how I like it. I’ve had a few other projects brought to my attention but I think I’m most excited about the next project that we will be doing with CDI. More later:)

Also CDI is moving into the TV realm on the heels of some licensing of films. I’ve been speaking with individuals who will be participating with this program and we will be announcing more on that in the coming weeks.

Time to refill the coffee cup and get on with the day. We are going up North for a Bday party and so I will unwind for a few hours. Sunday we have another Bday gathering . Other than these festivities I might go do some office organizing today/tomorrow and be ready for another great week ahead.

Happy Saturday to you all.
