Did up an title open for the funding promo. Wanted to introduce the Cure-All Cabinet title in it’s creation moment, when it was first typed on a typewriter. The rest of the promo will be an interview of a couple of the principals with inset shots of the screenplay and rough original storyboards…

I’m working on a new short film project, Cure-All Cabinet, and getting ready to seek funding. The film will be produced by NeedlessFilms. Not quite ready to greenlight, but working out the details.

Not quite happy with the previous site design, I set out for a design that was a little more lightweight and user friendly. At this time, the site is still in work, but hoping the blogging pages will be more conducive to “photo blogging” and I can just start posting images soon…

Stay tuned.
