Concept Trailer





I made a longer Recut of the Teaser. Added a bit at the beginning, changed up the music a bit.

Right now, I'm re-working the budget, making prop lists, and doing re-writes.

Concept Teaser

Yes it was originally supposed to be an 8 minute Concept Trailer. To better explain the plot. But there was a hard drive crash, and much of that footage was lost.

But this is a good thing. I was starting to fret over the 8 minutes when really I needed to concentrate on making that full feature film. The first 4 minutes was good enough to garner some interest and display the initial feel. This concept trailer gives you a glimpse of the plot.





The next step is to put together a Pitch Video where I explain the entire plot and tell you more about the full feature, and then to post it on our Kickstarter page. Speaking of that. Check out our Kickstarter here:




We're going to raise $1,800 to start. At Kickstarter you can make a pledge to the project and get several different kinds of incentives. You can get DVD's, Artwork, Associate Producer Credits, and a whole lot more stuff. But if we don't reach our target goal then no one gets charged and no incentives are given.

We've got about 30 days left now. Special thanks to the 4 people to start us off with the initial pledges. I really appreciate it.

Synaptic Light


Scratch what I said about 800 views. Since then we've shot up to 9200 views. Wow. And still the positive comments and messages come in. Thank you all so much. We've got a good pace going. I'm finishing up re-writes on the script for the Feature Film of REDD. I'm so very excited to shoot this. It's going to be a fun and unique movie experience and I can't wait to show it to the world.

Synaptic Light Blog was kind enough to do a nice post about REDD. Even squeezed some questions out of me about the behind the scenes.

Special thanks to Phillip Gibb.

Viral Thoughts

Thinking about REDD going viral. I've done the majority of what's on my list, and much of it has worked the way I thought it would. But we are nowhere near Viral. 800 views in a week isn't exactly viral, but I can't really complain when those comments and messages I have received have been so positive.  I thank everyone who's watched and done what they can to pass the video along.  You all are awesome.

A big part of going viral is having a good video (of course), and since so many folks think it is awesome then I'll just assume for now that we've got that down. Now we have to tap into the other side of social media. I've got it posted on Facebook and everyone I know posting on their Facebooks, as well as Twitter. But now I'm looking to score more views through other sites like DIGG or STUMBLE UPON.  Here's a list of the links to some of those sites.  You may need to register and log in, but any views, high ratings, good comments, and reposts would be a huge help in getting the video more views.

In Other REDD news I am in major re-writes for the full length feature film, and I must say, I am really enjoying writing this one. I'm very excited to see this movie made and show it to all of you.  It's going to be alot of fun.  I'm in a rush to get the full script finished, so I can figure out what the final budget number is for the feature, and then I can figure out how to get that money.
