Congrats to all cast and crew on a job well done, Horror Hotel won the "Outstanding Series" award at the 2014 LAWeb Fest in the category of Sci-Fi/Fantasy/Horror. The list of film festival screenings also continues to grow; episodes have been selected for half a dozen film fests already!

This month Morningside Monster is screening at the Oklahoma City Underground Monster Carnival and at the Mad Monster film festival in Charlotte.

We got another scene shot for the Mr Lockjaw; project. Short ATM moment, gorilla filming, in and out. Great pre-production planning by Byron and Justin. And the ventrilloquist doll is looking great. Can't wait to do the scenes with Keith Brooks (he had a killer scene in this week's episode of The Walking Dead and his character has a three-episode arc).

A location shot this month to film some additional material for the Upyri; anthology. A full day with Lonnie Jackson, Byron Conrad Erwin, and crew to add five interstitial scenes of me playing intense narrator -- think Masterpiece Theatre meets Interview with the Vampire. It's part to the last bits of work for bundling the series up for distribution. Great location and I got to were stigmata for the martini shot!

First time I get to work with director Anthony McHie. He's shooting a ten-minute comedy, Details..., that rips on police dramas and race tropes. I've got an under-five role playing an absurdly bigoted police sketch artist. Small world: the cast includes Keith Brooks & Dorian Santiago. Keith was recently cast to play in Mr Lockjaw later this year; Dorian Santiago worked on the Upyri project last year.

Almost four years ago I put "get two IMDb credits" on my bucket list. I wanted two (2) because I thought one might be dismissed as a fluke. Now I have 23! The most recent addition, this month, is an actor credit on Horror Hotel while another four titles are in the works ( Public Enemy, Mr Lockjaw, GED, and Hope).
