'A little roux...'

I've started the editing process by editing the first part of the open. I'm not guaranteeing that this will be exactly how I'll open the film, but this is the general idea. It involves a conversation me, Mike Kenny, and Remi at The Balcony on Magazine about porn. As I stated before, I may switch it up as far as tone, but that will be dictated by the rest of what we shoot. So... that's the roux...

'let me tell you about my boat'

Yup. Was working on some ideas, and thought, why not make a short video using Mark Mothersbaurgh's 'Let Me Tell You About My Boat'. I like it. Do you?

Music by Mark Mothersbaugh

'rock box music'

'digital love'

As I gear up mentally for 'American Gumbo', I've decided to go look back at my other projects to see what types of mistakes were made and how this project can be better. I feel as if I've gotten better with each project, but I have a way to go to be as good in the industry as I want to be. Some projects really stand out in my memory, because they all have a story behind them. And that's one of the great things about being an auter... There is always a story behind every story.
