Filming
I have some dark video projects in the works this month:
Blackhats - Feature
There is a one-day shoot in the indie feature film, blackhats, where I play a software developer who goes postal. It's an intense stand-off scene between me, the lead, and a hand grenade. It will be months before I see the finished video, but I'm already looking forward to getting a copy of the scene to play back at Definition 6, where I direct software development: it will be fun to raise an ironic eyebrow.
Pre-Production
Mr. Snuggles - Short
Speaking of messed up characters, another intense role I am working on is in Mr. Snuggles, a short film project from Melted Pictures that is now in pre-production. I play a demure interogator with a split personality. The yin to his yang is a sadistic torturer embodied in a ventriloquist doll (above). The film is basically a single scene with me, the doll, and our hapless victim. I imagine it as something of a cross between Magic and Reservoir Dogs with me playing a bit of Richard Burton and a bit of Michael Madsen.
Sick People - Short
The short film I was working on last month, Sick People, has got some new investment and is being re-written as a feature-length film, with more back-story given to the characters. I'm looking forward to seeing why the hell my character was so messed up!
