It's been an embarrassingly long time since I updated this newsletter.
Why is that? Am I spreading myself too thin? Perhaps I need to pull
some of my many projects into one place. (Perhaps I've already been
doing that on Facebook?) Perhaps I need to rethink my blogs, podcast,
and website and make them all one sticky blob of a website.
But not tonight.
No, tonight I'll be giving a run-down of things that are going on in
my world. Ready?

THE 360 | 365 FILM FESTIVAL
During my day job at Animatus Studio, I've been working my tail off
with a new uber-website. The Rochester High Falls Int'l Film Festival
is now called 360 | 365, and the website is its public face. It's a
daring new identity, and I'm really invested in making this year's
film festival better than ever.

SUBTERRANEA PROJECTS
Remember The Other Gods? It's playing in Buenos Aires. Yeah, that's
cool.
Love classic horror movies? My horror-movie-music-video-mash-up for
Aviary's Skeletal Remains is playing at The Little this Halloween.
Do I have a new career as an actor? Well, let's put it this way -- I
only go out for silent movies. Mike Russo's Virgin Fang features me
and was edited by... me.
No clips for those last two on the internet yet, but you can see each
at The Little Theatre's 25 Hour Horror Feast October 31st.
And then there's Night of the Living Dead: Reanimated. Honestly, it's
too complicated to explain here, but there's clips over on the
Subterranea blog.

MIND RIP
The John Vincent movie project is chugging along. We shot several
scenes this summer, including a zombie congregation of epic
proportions. I put on my assistant director hat and got out there to
wrangle zombies -- a great experience. We're working on editing a
promotional trailer to present to investors.

ROCHESTER MOVIE MAKERS
Another summer, another series of summer shorts. I worked as A.D. on
Wing Man, written by Mike Russo and directed by Derrick Petrush. It's
currently being edited, but the footage I've seen is pretty darn
impressive.
RMM also hosted a night of shorts at the Club at Water Street a couple
weeks ago. We had about 100 people, raised some cash for the 501c3,
and we're looking forward to doing it again in the future.

Okay, that's all I've got for now. Here are my favorite virtual
locations.
