Recently I posted on the family blog that I was in need of a certain amount of money to shoot three spec commercials for Pampers, Nintendo Wii and Stride Gum. I'm excited that a great friend from Art Center (where I graduated from) is putting up the money! I'm really pumped to shoot these and it's A LOT of work to fit into one weekend. I'll be shooting one Nintendo, one Pampers, three Stride spots and a few Yo Gabba Gabba! promos all from Friday to Sunday. I have a lot of really talented people involved and I'm excited to see how they turn out.
In other news, Nathan and I have started a script that we hope to finish by early next year. I can't focus too much on it until these commercials are finished but it's going to be a "supernatural crime thriller," a mix between the X-Files, No Country for Old Men, and a little Werner Herzog sprinkled in there. I love the title too much to mention it just yet, haha. I also want to adapt my brother Jackson's comic panel he used to draw into a television pilot for Adult Swim on Cartoon Network. This would be called "It's a Weird World," almost like the title of this blog! We'll see how everything starts to take shape!
I also finished my Yo Gabba Gabba episode quite a while ago. It turned out awesome! Hopefully it will be premiering this fall! It's called "Fairy Tale," it's features the Flaming Lips and is an adaptation of "Jack and the Beanstalk."
