What I'm working on

So, other than some odds and ends, I'm done for the moment with "What Babies Want." I'll be making a trailer sometime before March, and I have to finish the DVD (which is almost done) by Monday, but that project is mostly wrapped for me (other than some film festival appearances, which are always fun).
And the play is wrapped, the sets struck.
So, what to do?

Well, I'm working on a few things right now.
I'm still working on my album, and once I can figure out a good place to upload my MP3s to, I'll start linking them to this page (...if anyone has any suggestions, it would be appreciated!...)

I have this science fiction / thriller / black comedy script that I was working on a few years ago with J. Ayscue (he and I grew up together, and together we wrote the script for "Dinner" together, as well as several other produced and unproduced projects), and I've gone back to it (with J.'s permission) and I'm re-approaching what happens during the story. I'm making it much less about the science fiction trappings, and much much more about the personal struggles these characters are going through. I'm also expanding the plot so that, as opposed to one main character to whom everything happens, it is becomming more ensemble, with each character having their own distinctive stories that intertwine with each other. I think it will make the story richer.

He and I had originally pitched the story to the Sci-Fi Channel as an original series, then we re-vamped it to be a feature, and now I am re-approaching it to make it something else.

I have the original short film script that started it all off, and I'm planning on starting to shoot that, to put together a short film that I can use to get financing for the feature length project. It is my experience that people like giving money to things that they can see and are concrete to them, as opposed to just ideas.

Anyway, I can start shooting with my PD-150, my glidecam and a smile!

Plus, once I get the hard drive space back on my computer, I can start editing my L.A. rock scene documentary, the documentary about my (now late) 100 year old Grandmother, and the documentary about Cuba - all three of which are mostly just sitting on my shelves, waiting for me to have half a year to edit them each....
