Working like crazy on Cthulhu Key
Met the lead actress this weekend, she will rock
I definitely need to get out and about more and say hey to old friends

“Get to the chopper!”

Ok, I haven’t updated here in a while.

The chase:

Lewaine is opening an art gallery and photography studio.
I am shooting a horror film with Bianca Barnett and Alix Lakehurst (nsfw!)

Life is fantastic.

If I haven’t seen you in a bit, shoot me an email at jaheath at gmail dot com and say hi.
Or find me on facebook!

I found this on H.R. Giger’s website.

I think is says alot in not alot of space!

and I mean that in a pretty literal way.

I mean, I have *zero* complaints with Lewaine.  None.  She is awesome.

It was just most everyone else around me that was sucking the life out of me.
I looked up and realized that most of my projects had stalled out, due to an apathy that I couldn’t figure out.

Here is a sneak preview of my latest side project.

I am launching this character in a week or so as a guest
blogger and host of a retro/horror film podcast on a major horror site!

Thats pretty much how I describe my continual trysts with synchronicity.

So I get on facebook and I “friend” a lady named Bianca Barnett,
a perky horror actress that I found via another “friend”, Debbie Rochon.

Well, long story short, I see where she has a contest to help her find her ideal role.

No rules, just be creative.  Right up my alley!  But oh snap, the contest ends at midnight that day!
Again, right up my alley!

I am going to be doing alot this year.  Alot.

I can see where I have have been way over-thinking alot of things when it
comes to the micro-cinema scene.  I sat down and started watching what is out there
on the market.  And I realized, well, I realized that I have a whole lot to reconsider.

And that is a good thing…

You ever work on something for so long, toiling and grinding, that you sometimes thing you will never get there?
Well, the time for all that hard work, all the studying, effort and endless nights of learning, learning and learning are finally paying off.

So with a brief lull before we begin filming The Cthulhu Key, I have been working on an animated project.
It’s no big secret that horror and sci-fi are my favorite genres, so with Cthulhu Key covering the horror, I started outlining
a story for a web series set in the future.

AstroNoir.com is the home for this series, and if you care to check it out, you will see some of my initial character designs
and test animations.  I am working on streamlining the whole 3D pipeline, and considering this is pretty much a one man show
at this point, that is pretty much my focus.

It’s an ensemble cast, set in a future that while not full on dystopian,  is still rather darker than most mainstream sci-fi.
I guess thats the “Noir” in AstroNoir…

So I have found a lot of great sites,  forums and businesses that I think have helped me get to the point I can actually make a movie.

I keep up with a few blogs, some updated regularly, others not so much. But one thing they have in common, is that when it comes to digital filmmaking, they are definitely the sites that believe in “teaching a man to fish” so to speak.
