Aaron has been busy working on his spec trailer, you can read all about his adventures here:

As for Corner of the Mind's Eye... I've been giving this quite a bit of thought.  COTME is essentially a road movie.  Most of the action takes place in the desert, in small towns, a roadside diner, a hospital, a gas station... quite a bit of locations that require quite a bit of money to produce.  That said, I am working on a script revision to help with a weak b-plot and I'd like to shoot a spec trailer to approach others for production funding.  The necessary evil of it... but it's good- people will get paid, the sets will be insured (as they always should be) but the biggest thing is to pay the people at least a percentage and the rest is on deferment.  

With that, I've been working on a brand new project that will not be hard to produce on a literal shoe-string budget.  The cool thing is that I'm still working within the sci-fi genre.  I'll talk more about that as the now 106 page script gets polished and I get the crew I've been talking to into place.  I will mention that I've been collecting spaghetti jars for the past month for a very eerie and wild scene.  Fun fun fun.  I love this stuff!!  Armed with my Canon HV-20, which takes AMAZING low light shots, I'm ready.  I just gotta polish that script.

Well, that's it for now!  More to come soon!!!


Lostskies Website Update

Lostskies.com has been re-designed! A couple of little bugs to iron out, but the new look is up. I've also signed up for a new Vimeo Account... I tested it with this clip that I animated a year ago.
