UPDATE! UPDATE! UPDATE!
I've finished the treatment for my comedy script. I've got most of a first draft for it. It's funny. It's awesome. It's going to be a lot of fun to make when we get there.
I've got 3 TV shows I'm developing with a represented Producer/Developer. Some are in talks with major networks so my fingers are crossed.
I've finished up another TV treatment and partnered up with a Big Time Author to be the host of the show.
I have a full draft of a short film that I wrote and I'm going to make for the Festival Circuit and hopefully turn into a full Length.
I've been working on a New Singing show for NBC and the Burnett Company which is awesome.
All in all, Life's good. I'm working like a dog and my creative brain is going to explode because I have so many projects that all of them will soon start molding into one. AHHHHHH. Great stuff though..
TV shows, a Comedy Web series, Comedy Feature, Drama Short, Working for NBC......
Crazy life but I love it!

The movie
I've been having issues with the entertainment industry. It's a field I've chosen to go in to. It's a field love. It's a field I want to be in for the rest of my life. But it's extremely hard. It's filled with personalities that clash. It's filled with hurdles you need to get over. It's filled with emotion and the fright of not knowing when your next paycheck will come. The great part about it is that you can be your own boss. You can pick what jobs you want to do and what you don't. The problem is that where I am right now is at the baby stages. It's all about making new relationships and keeping the relationships going. The ones I've made are going to be lifelong and I've made friends and people who can help me further my career. I cherish those relationships.
I'm currently working on a Comedy feature Film. As i write it i see myself getting towards more of a deep emotional feel, but I have to understand that it is a comedy and must remain so. I can put in my EMO parts because i need the audience to be emotionally attached, but the whole movie can't be that way. I guess we'll just have to see what happens when it all comes together. Hopefully I'll get it made.
In other news, Life is good. No complaints really. I'm alive and Im healthy. Loving what I do and living how I want.
Do the same

Been AFK for a While
So I've been pretty busy lately with work and haven't been able to put up or judge a New or My most Recent Photo Contest. I apologize and will get back to it when I can. Right now this is just a general update as to where I am. In Life, I'm coming up on my Quarter-Life Crisis and I feel like it's about to set in that I'm almost 25 and don't have a career or significant other to share my life with. I understand that 25 is still pretty early to be thinking about these things but this is the pivotal moment in my life where things need to take a turn; for the better, worse, awesome, (insert adjective here).
As I sit and write this post I can't help but think of all the things I am working on and want to do. First, I've been working production on a few commercials and TV shows here and there but am still looking for my Steady pay-check and job that I love and that I can do every day instead of here and there. I love doing production, I love producing, I love creating, I love writing. I love all aspects of the entertainment industry and everything that has to with it from creation to production. I am very grateful for the opportunities that I get and make sure that i learn something from every experience. Because what is life without learning from yourself and the situations you are in.
Right now i have many projects in development and some projects I need to revisit. I Have a TV show that i would still love to pitch around. ManSchool Being one of them. I have attached an Amazing author, Jeff Wilser, Who wrote the "Maxims of Manhood: 100 Rules every man should Live By"

Another show that I have in developemnet is a show about being ready for the worst. Not just the Imaginable worst like the government being over-run or a Natural disaster but even WORSE THINGS. If all goes well it should become a pretty entertaining show.
There are also a few Magic Shows that involve One of the greatest Magicians and a great person i've had the opportunity to be blessed with meeting, Jason Latimer.

Those are some of the larger projects I am working on in my LIfe. I have also taken on a project to help Production Assistants out and help them live a frugal yet satisfying lifestyle. I'm going to either start a blog or Write a book about how to be the best PA you can be. Holding that position for many years and then moving up from it, I've learned a few tricks along the way. The project will be supplemented with video interviews with current PA's and people on set to help newcomers learn the ropes. One of the biggest pieces of advice i can give without giving too much away is to RECYCLE!!!!!
Next, I'm working on a few series' for the web. The first one is a cooking show that will revolutionize the way that people look at food. It's a show for a new generation of eaters. It's a show that will make you even HUNGRIER AFTER you eat the food you cook.
I also have a Comedy Web-series in development that takes two Quarter-aged cousins and see's how well they can get by without jobs or a house.
I will be updating you all with Progress of how all of these projects are going. Hopefully you'll see some of these on TV of in theaters soon!!
Lot's of going ons, Lot's to do. Hopefully I'll be back within a few days instead of a Few MONTHS.
Live how you want, LOVE WHAT YOU DO!

Light Me Up
This photo Was one of my first adventures into Light Painting. It's inspired by a great photographer, Julian Cash. You call can check out his other Light Painting photos at EdibleLight.com
Around the 4th try i got something close to the result that i was looking for. I think the effect is really something cool. There are a lot of light painting photo's out there but i feel like some of them are a little tacky. What julian has done really inspired me to learn more about this type of photography and experiment. I think my next project will be Portraits like this one.
Thank you for the inspiration Julian!
Life how you want! Do what you Love!
