Purpose & Projects

I've decided to keep a blog covering all of the movie related things I do. It'll be for talking about the movies I see/movie events I go to in Austin, but I'll also use it to write about my projects. I had a blog that focused only on The Retelling (my second feature), but I stopped updating it after filming. This blog will cover the progress of The Retelling, as well as my next feature film.

A group of middle school students band together to save themselves and their town when a zombies start taking over Austin. I made the movie when I was 12-years-old, and the run time is a little bit over an hour. The DVD is available to buy on the website linked above.

Here is the link for info on my second feature film, The Retelling.

Charlie Mason and his family move to a small town to take care of his blind grandfather, who is known for taking mysterious walks to meet "friends" that nobody has ever heard of. When Charlie attempts to prove his grandfather's sanity, he uncovers a murder plot in the works. It is up to him to put together the clues that, unknowingly to him, are being provided by unlikely and otherworldly sources. (Trailer on the website linked above)

The Retelling is currently in post-production. We finished editing it only a couple of weeks after production was complete, which was about mid-September. Since then, the fine-tune editing has taken quite a bit of time. With Pathogen, we did not do any color correction, and very little sound/music editing. Lack of previous experience has slowed down post-production a bit, but lessons have been learned and we're getting back on track.

Aside from finishing up sound editing, the score needs to be composed. This is being done by Brian Satterwhite, a local film composer. From our meetings, I really think this score is going to be great. I'm very excited to see the finished product! Brian has a website for his music called Nuance Music.
