About This Website

I am a machinima director who strives to create original, story driven films, mainly using Valve's Source Engine.

Also, I am associated with Daemon Productions, and regularly help others with cinematography, writing, voice acting, and editing.

With over two years of experience as a filmmaker, I am currently engaged in a drama miniseries "Reunion," a collaboration "Without Honor," and numerous more distant projects.

Progress Update

Well, as of late I haven't got as much done as I'd like. However, things should pick up soon. Here's where I am at with all my projects. Also, some of these have lame working titles, please forgive me. Prepare for an info dump!

Trade Secrets - Currently, I'm just finalizing the script before sending it off to voice actors. In addition to myself, I will be having a few other trusted writers looking over it. Casting is also being finished up.

A Walk in the Park - Here, I am waiting for one of the cast members to get around to his lines. Once I have received all the voice overs, there is nothing stopping me from animating and completing it.

Reunion - Because of the length of this project outline, I am going to divide it into parts (rather than have a feature length film). Trying to get it split up nicely and getting feedback on what to improve before actually writing it. When it is produced, the segments will all be made before release, ensuring a consistent stream.

Reporter - Working off the plot synopsis, I have been writing this for a little while now. It's currently about twelve pages and in the neighborhood of halfway written.

That Old Lighthouse - A little side project, this is what I work on when everything else is held up. Here, I'm trying to find a couple of voice actors, and having some success. I encourage you to check out the very nice effects my friend Sieabah did on the poster, in the gallery section.

Unexpected Chapter 8 - I will be doing this as my fourth cinematography project.

So there you have it. That's my present status on every major machinima I am working on! To be honest, this is as much for my information as yours - it helps to write it all down neatly.

Casting/Script Editing

Just approached Kaicm, a very good voice actor, about playing the lead role.

Got a few more roles to firm up, still. Currently I'm finalizing the script and looking for more voice actors

Trade Secrets, coming.....sometime

I thought about Trade Secrets for a long time this summer. Considering the ridiculous time and effort with very little to show so far, I was considering abandoning it. However, I eventually decided that if I came back, better planned, more focused, and more committed, I could still pull it off. While it may take awhile (i wont lie, I've started from scratch) you can probably expect this to happen sooner. Much of my delay before came from being new to source, as well as just getting distracted and scattered.

Too long, didn't read - Trade Secrets is back in business, and should be much more efficient.

Currently, I am polishing up the new pilot script, casting three of the main roles (feel free to apply), and even starting faceposer work on parts.

Back to the Mines!

Well, I finally resolved my faceposer issues. Now, I am ready to start up work again.

I just did a good bit of animating on Walk in the Park. Also, I am in the process of writing two halo machinimas, one about an hour long, which I will direct under Daemon Productions.

Sorry for the lack of updates but with no machinima capability there was very little to report.

Anyway, I've also joined the Virtualflicks.net review team, so keep an eye out for my critiques - there will be two each week from me.

Finally, I have added a new page to the website. Because I do a great amount of collaboration lately, the 'other projects' page was created to show off my work on other films. I don't think any are released but they are all well on the way.
