Slightly Internet Famous

Not really, but I still thought this was cool: http://www.revver.com/playlist/show/270112/

I was just scrolling down the Revver homepage when I saw a very familiar thumbnail.

The Necrotesque Teaser is right at the top of the playlist (front and centre!), and the playlist is currently featured on the Revver homepage (www.revver.com), with the first five videos visible on the main page. Which means Necrotesque just made the Revver front page. Which I think is cool.

A little bit of exposure, albeit not too far from home (what with my videos being hosted on Revver and whatnot). Still. At this point, any and all recognition rocks. A lot.

Episode One

Episode One is live! Go check it out: necrotesque.blogspot.com (or here).

Production Update 8

Post-production on Episode One is finished as of tonight.  Also finished filming Episode Two earlier today, and will be starting on post sometime in the next few days.

I need to remember to get brief bios from the cast to put up here, in case any of you are curious.  I also need to do something about the web design situation (or lack thereof).  Probably not going to happen until December, unfortunately.  Unless someone else has too much time on their hands and wants to build a site for me (hint dropped).

Wishing I wasn't in school right now.  Assignments are piling up and the weekly series deadline is weighing on me a bit.  Then again, I've accomplished more as a writer/director in the last two months than in the 4 years before that.  Either way, I'm in now for the duration, and looking forward to every step.

Production Update 7

Rough cut of episode one is finished.  I've started sound editing, and will hopefully have the final cut ready before we start shooting episode 2 on wednesday.  I am really excited to get this online.  Jamie, Phil and Duncan have done an excellent job so far.

Teaser

Teaser for the series is now live!  Less than a week until Episode One airs.  Enjoy!


Production Update 6

Just wrapped the first night of shooting.  Excitement has set in.  Things are on track for an October 31st premier, and I'm as surprised as everyone else.

Editing begins tomorrow.  Until then: sleep.

Production Update 5

Just finished the first draft of the current story arc earlier this week. Currently it runs to twelve episodes. Trying to assemble the cast and crew as I write this, and hoping to start production within the next two weeks (obviously, what with the October 31st planned premiere and all). More news as it happens.

Production Update 4

It's been a while.  September was crazy, but now that October is here, I'm eager and ready to get this show on the road.  Goal is to have Episode 1 live on the 31st.  I've rewritten the entire series from scratch, and now have up to Episode 8 roughly drafted.

I'm also likely going to rename the series (although this will remain the official production blog).  Why you ask?  Because I favour something a little more... pronounceable.

More news as it happens.
