Blog ^#%&&@

So, I'm getting 4 different versions of this blog for some reason, with only one being the real one. But I get 3 others that are making me crazy. I hope to get it fixed asap.

I'm going to start on how to get your script read - or not. And what it's about. You know, those sites that offer you to get right to the companies. 

Well, yes and no. 

Lost some blog messes.

Sorry today, some bad news, not doing much for now, hope it all works out. Should be back on the week-end for Monday.

Be well. 

 

Rose parade for a day

First time I've been away from LA and the Rose Parade. Starts off with a B-2 bomber flying over the city of Pasadena, just a few miles from LA. It's a huge deal, football games and a whole lot more.

And if you're looking at it, and most of U.S. and Canada, and the world all of those creatures you see are from live flowers and anything that is real, not plastic or fake. Like somethings we know.

Enjoy 

 

Another Ghostkeeper? Hmnnn

So it looks like Ghostkeeper except it's pushed up a whole lot and with more characters. The story is about the real actors showing up for a reunion of the original Ghostkeeper movie. The actors actually play themselves and of course, something happens. But this time, it's a whole other world.

Included are two new young characters who take lead rolls and including a Native Indian shaman. The key crew will include the original cameraman and editor.

When will it come out?

We're hoping to shot in March of 2018. In the meantime I will continue my blog which I started 9 years ago. Amazing that it still stays up. There are tons of film stories starting from 2009 and lots of stuff to read.

So here we go again...

Meantime, I'm working on another project as well, so hang in.

Still dealing with holidays - here's something to dwell on...

 

Something to start off the new year.
 

Have a good holiday - and maybe catch my movie below.

Here's my Christmas movie on Hallmark. It was made a few years ago but still plays. It was based on a combination of true stories from my life (of course) and some places I've been through in the Rockies. Ratings were great. You can find it amongst the hundreds of Hallmark movies.

There's also a weird side to the movie. The producers never paid me. It's a great story in my blog that explains the whole story of paying the writer. Me.

You can also catch my name on the last line just before the credit for director. There's also a weird side as the producers never paid me. It's a great story in my blog that explains the whole confusion of paying the writer. Me.

It took almost 3 weeks to get paid but with the Writer's Guild it would have even been longer. Some producers do this to keep some money, the greedy ones. And they're still around. Ironically it took more weeks to pay me than making the movie in 2 weeks. 

You can see a few more blogs on the payment they owe on the blogs beginning on April 8, 2017. Just scroll down.

But let's have a great Christmas holiday and prepare for the new year. Thanks for reading my blog and hope to keep going. 

Ghostkeeper continues -- Ghostkeeper 2 - Never Go Back

This is an issue from some fans of Ghostkeeper and has to be corrected for those who saw a different Ghostkeeper opening. It's not really a big deal but the film sales for one particular salesman wanted a different beginning. Something more shocking. Above is Doug MacLeod and our friend who's name I lost 35 years ago. Me  on the right holding the "weapon".

So we came back to Lake Louise in Banff, where the Deer Lodge was in the late spring and shot a short piece wherein a young man is seen running through the forest, not in snow but in the same place where we shot Ghostkeeper. Just no snow.

I really didn't want to do it, but the distrib said he wouldn't take it. So the man gets a sharp stick through his body. I never liked it and to this day have never been able to get a copy. They were all in video so quite poorly made. By the way I have a German film but I don't know who the hell he/she is who holds it. One of the things to deal with.

 Fake blood, eh? Seems that some people get to see the "adapted version" beginning.

 But of course, it's not the end. Ghostmaker 2 - Never Go Back

 

 What is it? Snow. Lots of snow.
