Weekly (almost) Update~ 9.13.2009

Hi everyone! Sorry for the month-long break between updates. I’ve been really busy lately, which is good, but it just means it’s harder for me to keep updated all the time. But anyway, I wanted to let everyone know that site changes are probably coming really soon, and this site will change quite a bit. Nehst is finishing up getting set up here in Cleveland, and we’re very excited for the coming months. I want to do a new short very soon, so watch out for that as well!

Short this time, but I’ll more completely update later!

Along with more and more about Cleveland’s new industry, I will probably be doing alot more with skfilms.net then I previously have. We have alot of projects we’re considering, everything from web series to feature films. Along with that, I will probably post updates about the Cleveland Film Group until we get our site set up for that. I plan to also do a bi-weekly or monthly (I haven’t decided yet) article about the major film and industry news , along with new releases and how I view them (Reviews, Opion, Etc). I may even throw some original music on here every once in a while, whether it’s stuff I’ve composed for previous/ upcoming films or just threw together over a weekend.

Going to be busy the next few weeks, so stay tuned!

Weekly Update~ 8.5.2009

Hey everyone, sorry for a long break in updates but I was gone again all last week and have been getting caught up. First, I would ask that you tell a friend about our site. Every visitor counts, so if everyone could spread the word it would mean a lot to us. We’ve had some good comments on “Devil’s Parsely” and we are crossing our fingers for our “festival season.” We’re going to be working on some different things in the coming months, a lot of ad contests and shorts. I think I’m also going to start to write a feature, but I’m not looking to actually produce it for at least the next year and a half. Really not much went on last week, because as I said I was out of town.


Have a good one,

Steve
