Writing scripts

I started writing the U12 film script tonight. I'm going to take my time with this one. I'm hoping for something that will win a few film festivals. 
I have plans to write four scripts before the end of April. The hard part will be holding it all in my brain until I finish filming each film.  It's going to be an exciting year for film production and so many new actors will be so excited to be working on a project. Making their dreams come true.

cast screening

The cast screening has been rescheduled to January 28 2023. That's a good thing because the blueray / dvd burner fell off the desk today and broke. It's going to take me a few weeks to save up the cash to buy a replacement. If it's not one thing it's another. At least the film is turning out better than I thought. I'm just tweeking a few things on it. I turned down the music and now I'm going to put it back where it was.

New 4K Camera?

Merry Christmas to everyone from the current cast and crew of Greg's Treasure Map, new QHR Report and the U12 Boys Diving film project. A great big thank you goes out to Secret Santa, DJ Bastille, Michael and the Logans 2020 Hockey team for helping to buy a new replacement camera. The Sony PXW Z190 should be arriving shortly and we will do an unboxing video with an available actor. 
This camera replaces the X160 I went for a swim with in the fall of 2019 filming the boys diving lessons fundraiser video with Evan Drake.  I'm great full everyday for him pushing me to safety.

Trilogy?

I'm thinking about making three feature films out of the U12 Boys Diving film. U12, U13 and U14. I would film one a year and use the same cast. The cast would continue takes lessons for three years and hopefully we would have some very good diving in the third film.  As an audience is this something you would want to see? More importantly is something you would want to buy all three DVDs of?  Please comment below or email

Secret Santa!

We got a huge gift of $1200 from a Secret Santa yesterday! Wow what a wonderful surprise. Santa says we can use it towards the replacement camera, the actors diving lessons, 4K editing computer or what ever the priority is. We are so greatful for the super kind people who support the actors and our film projects.

Replacement Camera

Two years ago I fell in a pond filming the boys diving lessons fundraising video. It took a year to dry it out and I kind of got it working again. Some functions don't work and I'm slowly losing more. Sonys non replaceable camera lens has fungus growing inside and I can't take it apart to fix it. 
We have saved up $3500 towards a replacement camera. We are looking at a Sony PXW Z190 that they have in stock. $4700. Also looking at a Sony PXW z150 for $3700 but we have been waiting 8 months for one to come into stock. Hummm

Dropped my phone

Well my day was going fine until I dropped my cell phone and broke the glass face into a million pieces. Hopefully Santa brings me a new one or maybe a secret Santa can help out. It was  Motorola E.  $156 two years ago.  Anyone's guess what the replacement cost is now days.
In other news, anyone interested in buying downloads of my films? I'm thinking about starting a Shopify store. Do I gamble on sales? I have to be super carefully with the money I have as I'm scraping the bottom of my penny bank.
