OP to go HD!!!

Yes, the headline is true, I have been contemplating this move for a while now, but never thought it would happen. And wouldn't you know it, I was surfing around Amazon at one in the morning (a usual habit for me) and something caught my eye: a Canon VIXIA HF10. It's only $807! As you can see this is a great deal since it shoots in FULL 1080p!
Before, when I was perusing Sony the only fairly good full 1080p was over $1000, and, as you could probably tell from the budget of my films, I don't have that kind of money. Well, I do, but I don't. It's kind of a pickle.

Anyways, I will have the money in the coming months, so you'll be seeing higher quality films shortly. I will also be purchasing a windsocked boom mic for your listening pleasure as well.

So, without further ado, I shall take my leave. Keep watching and keep faith in us. Yours truly.

Update 8/12

WOW! It's been quite a jaunt since I've filled your head with our banter, so I'll pack it in so tight it'll be only half digested next update! Anyways, back to the REAL subject, Project "Dull" is still underway. Jared is expanding the script, for, if I haven't already stated, we're planning to submit this to Sundance. We're hoping that it will be long enough to be in the "feature" category. So far it's still in the pre-production stage, but with some luck it'll be on it's way soon.

In other news, I wanted to be the first to tell you about my new script. I know that it seems like we keep coming up with projects and scrapping them, but that's how us indies do it. Never fret on those scrapped projects, I assure you that some of them will probably be revisited. Okay, though, back to what I was saying before: I'm writing a new script. Sierra has helped tremendously by chatting with me about ideas for it and I'm sure it will pay off. What I will say about it is that it's about an angry, and horrendously ugly, redneck hermaphrodite woman and her gay son. If I have your attention there then keep reading. The woman, whose name is Margret Spermdumpster-Pedittle, is visited by her son and finds out that he's gay, and, if that's not enough, she has a rare form of brain cancer which makes her lash out in violent ways. The film is jokingly entitled: "Bitch with a 12 Gauge". Expect it sometime in the future, probably when I make Overlord Pictures a full-fledged production company.

Well, that's it for now! Stay tuned and keep giving us your support by watching and commenting on our movies and/or downloading our free podcast (which is optimized for iPod). Yours truly signing out.
