MEH, thanks for the kind words on Rise. It was definately rough around the edges. Also, it was my first real exprience on a movie set. We were trying to do something a little different, with integerity and sense of humor. We had very little time to work and no (and I mean NO) money. I think we were at least partially successful.
Anyway, I've been working on a lot of movies since, assitatnt editing, lead editing, dping and writing (alot). It's been almost four years since rise of shot and I finally feel ready to jump back into the director's chair.
I think everyone will be taken aback by Edges of Darkness. The script and characters are much stronger than they were in Rise. There's some really wicked set pieces, one involving a pink bowling ball through the head. And there are some zombies. They're real this time.
We've assembled a really good cast. I'd like it think of them as the best group of actors no one's heard off. Tom Devlin's 1313 fx is doing our effects. We're 99% all practical f/x on this one. We're shooting in HD. He have a couple of distribution offers already. Hopefully it'll be stores by April.
