You could say that I began growing up into my filmmaking life in Austin, TX. In the 70’s I went to college there at the University of Texas, mostly as an English major. I had written several short stories and lots of poetry, some of which were published.

As we move to less 6 months of the beginning of production in the Austin, TX area on our next film project “One Hand Clapping,” I just wanted to update you about what we’ve been up to lately and what is on our horizon.

Here we are again, ready to fire up our engines, and head down that extensive, arduous runway for liftoff … and fire up another film project. But this time we’re stoking the fire a little differently, no actually … a lot differently. We’re not only launching a...

In the early days of the Internet I was quite skeptical about how all the so-called amazingly monumental ways the Internet was going to change and reshape our world.  And even today I still am skeptical about some of them. But now, one of the things I was previously...

As we gear up to put all the pieces together for our next feature film project, "One Hand Clapping," I am reminded why we have chosen to put this particular film on the front burner. Believe it or not our company actually has several projects we could activate, but...
