HAPPY HALLOWEEN 2024: "MONSTER SMUD 2" [Recovered Footage]

During the Goosebumps craze in the mid 1990's we had a fake spin-off fan series of our own in a similar vein called "EYEBALLS".  This past year, after returning from our Winter Holidays Illinois trip, I was transferring some old VHS tapes.  On one of them I came across some completely forgotten footage for an incomplete sequel to one of our "EYEBALLS" Episodes, a follow up to "MONSTER SMUD".  So I cut together a teaser trailer.  It features much younger versions of my brothers and I, and it would appear that the "SMUD" has survived and moved with us to a new house.  Check it out HERE!

THAT LAST CHRISTMAS: Edit Sequence (2023)


 So I have never put out anything like this before for any of our projects.  I originally made it as a joke response to David Reyes, whom plays "Detective Buddy", after he sent me one from the most recent Ridley Scott movie.  So here is the edit sequence for the 2023 X-Mas cut of That Last Christmas, in all its glory.

You can now also watch the entire series and the bonus content that is currently available all in one place in this playlist HERE

THAT LAST CHRISTMAS: Holiday Short/Music Video 2023

Hot off the press, we bring you our THIRD installment in our Holiday music video series - THAT LAST CHRISTMAS.  We actually shot most of this one last holiday season in November/December 2022, (in Los Angeles and Illinois).  As we started to cut it we soon realized that it was too big to finish in time.  So we released a TRAILER, in hopes that we could get it out sometime during the year.  Time did not permit and it eventually made more sense to just release it for the holidays this year.

This installment is longer, and starts as more of a short film than the previous years.  Similar to the others, it is chock full of Holiday  movie references and also connects in many ways to the videos that precede it.  With the extra 11 months to work through the 17+ hours of total footage, we had more time (early on) to dig deeper into the footage than we ever have before.  This did leave us with more on the cutting room floor in the end.  So hopefully I can find a way to release some of the lost gems at some point!?!

It was a gargantuan amount of work throughout the year and still somehow came right down to the wire.  The last piece of ADR was recorded on 12/14, and the cut was locked and uploaded just hours before we hopped onto a plane in the early AM on 12/17.  For the last week we were working alongside a pair of sick kids, which eventually sickened us as well.  This made for quite the expanded journey into delirium and madness while working through the projects final days of post in sickness.  Somehow we made it through and now, we bring you THAT LAST CHRISTMAS.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN 2023: An Original Short from 2006 "CASE333"!

While looking through old tapes I found several interesting shorts this season but many of them needed more cleaning up than I could pull off in a couple of weeks.  I did, however, find this strange little short that I shot for a film contest back in 2006, Case 333.  It is strange and unusual but I find it a little eerie and interesting.  HAPPY HALLOWEEN 2023!  Check it out HERE!

Summer Pool Day Montage 2023

My new underwater camera had some settings adjusted without my knowledge.  So a bunch of footage was shot in some sort of lower rez/slow motion setting for this entire day at the pool at my Brother's house.  Instead of throwing it all out, we got creative.  My footage was sped up and then chopped together with footage from Jordan and Danielle's underwater camera, and then some film fx were added throughout to complete the look.  The final result is actually pretty fun.  Check it out HERE!
