February Updates (Walking Through the Tree of Life)

The shortest month of the year always ends up being one of the busiest. At least we can see the light of spring making sparse cracks in the ice of our current days. What will you have blossoming when the spring comes?

Februrary 2010 News & Notes:

It's a busy time and a lot of good things are coming up. Here's a quick rundown, but make sure to pay special attention to the "Antithesis Worldwide Pledge Fund."

Antithesis has just been awarded an Aloha Accolade Award for Excellence in Filmmaking by the Honolulu International Film Festival. The ceremony will take place on April 25, 2010 in Honolulu.

This is the first award for the film to date. In order to make sure the film gets more exposure to end up in a theater near you, please pick up a pledge gift by going here:

http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/perfectentropy/antithesis-worldwide

We only have 30 days to reach 100%, and currently we're holding at 9%. If we don't get 100% or more, then no one will be charged. The pledge will succeed only if we reach 100%.

In order to get the fires burning for our spring to the end of the pledge, all $10 level donations will receive an Official "Antithesis" poster. 500 people x 1 $10 poster each = Success.

Also, I'm designing the new DVD art for the Special Edition "Antithesis" release after the pledge, so I'll post samples up for people to vote on for the final cover. You have to pledge first though, cowboys and cowgirls.

Project Updates:

-All Tomorrow's Children:

About halfway through the screenplay now. The note cards turned out to be a great blueprint to craft the script, but even better as something to throw conflicting ideas against. I can't really give anything away about it, but for me the film will end up as a mixture of a Kandinsky painting, Donnie Darko, The Prodigy, The Bomb Squad & The Creatures. Darkly funny, violent and romantic stuff . . .

- Vesica Pisces

The following is the episode list of the first installment of the Vesica Pisces series.

(1) "She Is The Infinite"
(2) "And That Is Why She Has Names"
(3) "Both One and Many"
(4) "She Hides in the Night"
(5) "And Forgets Herself in the Daylight"
(6) "Everyday is a Dream"
(7) "When You Become Someone New"
(8) "Or Maybe We're Still Sleeping"

Together, the titles give an idea about the meaning of the entire series. More to come as the project develops, but American Psycho, Akira and 1984 are some of the more palpable influences here.

-Reverse Bullets
Casting. Designing. Coming soon. I promise.

Completely unrelated, but also of note.

Californication is brilliant. Weeds is close. Netflix's Watch Instantly function is the only thing that can keep me going at night.


Talk soon,

UPDATE: Oh yeah, and WWW.PERFECTENTROPY.COM will be up and & running VERY, VERY soon.
