Ms. Toi Video

Greetings All!

The Ms. Toi Video ("Move to The Back of The Line"), will most likely be released at the label's discretion in about 2 days. There have been talks about shooting a documentary about Ms. Toi and her experiences as a musician but this has not been finalized. You can all expect to see the music video very soon. Once again. Thank you for all of your involvement.

Ms. Toi's "Back of The Line" Video Wrapped

Greetings,

We just wrapped Ms. Toi's "Back of the Line" and sent it into post-production. We should expect to see a finished copy in about two weeks which will be most likely be surfacing somewhere on the internet and major networks (but it is all up to the label-- not my department). It was a long shoot and I want to thank the ENTIRE cast and crew for their cooperation of the 10 hour shoot.

Special Thanks to the good people in Leimert Park and the community for the assistance!

Production Rant

Hey Everyone!

First, I would like to once again thank everyone for their participation in the projects we have shot in the last year or so. I would like to send a special thank you to Peg London and everyone else who was apart of Project: PATROL.

PATROL UPDATE

As we grow closer to the holiday it seems to become harder and harder to complete the post-production phases of the projects we have shot. The last scene from PATROL has almost become so annoying that I would rather re-shoot it again than have to deal with having a visual effects artist spend so much time on something so small. Still, we are tentatively scheduled to be done with all of PATROL by January 1st (but at this pace I wouldn't hold my breath).. Ya, I know as a producer it is my job to be optimistic and energetic about everything, but I would much rather just call it like I see it. I know the job will get done, but it is just a matter of when.

As far as distribution goes, we have reviewed the film over-and-over for the last couple of months and have decided that it would better suit a television media over a theatrical.


Shila's Music Video

We are scheduled to shoot a music video this weekend, so I am very eager to get this project out of the way because negotiations between the artist's management and my company went on a bit too long.

Hopefully, it will all pay off. We have decided to go with shooting on the Panasonic HVX and a couple of Redrock Micro products. *shrugs* Let the games begin!

Tenative Schedule for 2008

Hey Everyone!

It has a been a crazy year for me and the rest of the production company. Originally, PATROL was scheduled to debut in Spring 07 but was delayed due to the production of "Life With Solomon" then we later ran into issues in post-production. I have been trying to divide resources between our latest projects and PATROL and so far things have been moving at a gradual pace.

The tentative schedule for early 2008 is

January

• Complete the "White Tee" music video by Shila.
• Complete the "Back of the Line" music video by Ms. Toi.
• Begin Pre-Production of Urban Jungle.
• Have the debut screening of PATROL.

So far tying up loose ends has become a number one priority for both the actors and the good of future projects. We are still in the process of deciding what film festival we would like to debut the film, but I should definitely have an answer by January of 2008.

PATROL Update

PATROL Update - The post production issues we've been having regarding visual effects are all but resolved at this point. I appreciate the patience and understanding everyone has had during the editing process.

In the meantime, here is a "Sneak Peek" of the finished product of PATROL.

PATROL Post-Production Madness

Hey Guys,

There has been a lot going on over the last couple of months. I just wanted to set the record straight for those who are concerned about the release of PATROL or may have questions to why it was not released on time.

We have a problem with some visual effects painting which seems to be holding things back. The process is extremely slow. Once the last scene is painted, we should expedite the release of PATROL to the regional film festivals around town.

Hold tight everyone!

Life With Solomon Unairing Pilot Complete!!
