THE DIVINE RIVER - A SCI FI SHORT

DirectorsNotes.com Audio interview

Directorsnotes.com conducted a little audio podcast interview with me. My first one of these, but Marbelle over there was so relaxing and easy-going that it was pretty painless.

Hope its somewhat informative, and not too pretentious.

BTW — The script to WHITE RED PANIC is also available in the shownotes.

This place called Now

Upon arriving at his destination, he immediatly realized that all he wanted to do was to go back.

He stared at the house in front of him. New. Shiny. Not right.

Feeling like the wrong key trying to wedge itself into a lock, He wondered what he was doing here. What had brought him to this place. To these steps. This door.

He could remember every single choice like a pristine color photograph taken only a moment before, yet could not figure out how it all added up to this. To this moment.

He sighed, and his fingers tightened around the handles of the suitcase. The wind blew softly against his back, nudging him forward towards the door.

So he lifted his chin, wiped his shoes, and rang the doorbell.

The door swung open quietly, almost as if all by itself.

And the man entered his new home.

Prolost.com and the White Red Panic score

Stu Maschwitz posted a really kind article regarding my film over at his blog www.prolost.com. For those of you that don’t know, he’s the co-founder of “The Orphanage,” and heavyweight VFX Studio that worked on Superman Returns, Sin City, and a bunch of other films. He’s also the author of The DV Rebel’s Guide, the coolest book you’ll ever pick up on low-budget filmmaking.

Needless to say I’m super thankful to him right now.

The article contains some info on the film, as well as Before and After images that I provided.

Check it out if you got a minute. www.prolost.com.

Also — Composer 3PM has released the a digital version of the WHITE RED PANIC SCORE on Amazon.com and ITUNES (search for “white red panic”). If you dug it, get yourself a copy and support him.

moving on

The film’s up now. for better or worse. Now I can finally start concentrating on the next thing. ;)

Oh, and if you’ve got a VIMEO account, please grab the 720p version from http://www.vimeo.com/1333375 instead of here. It’s available at the bottom right corner of the vimeo page. You’ll help save my bandwidth, and will end up in my cool book.

Also if anyone knows of a cheap way to host a 400mb HD mp4, let me know ;)
