My great friend H Darrow over at Crooked Lake Productions is holding a short film contest. I forgot to post the news up here when he was taking submissions, but now he's got a bunch of "One Shot" stories to go through and wants people to decide his next film.
So got to http://crookedlp.com/news and vote on your favorite idea.
My vote goes to:
10. Not Enough
This is a story about a guy at a party having fun, interacting with his friends, while still feeling alone.
The shot starts behind the main character outside walking to the party then when he walks in the camera rotates and leads him to friends as he interacts with them. During these conversations with friends we learn about the character but never the reason behind everything being not enough.
Designer extraordinaire Dan Carson finished our first print advertisement for 2009. The ad was manufactured to capture the style and diverse talents of Crooked Lake Productions and channel it through print media like papers and magazines.
So for the last few years, doritos had a contest for indy filmmakers like my old buddy H Dilla. Make a commercial, win, and get in the superbowl. Here's Henry's entry.
I don't think I get it. But I'm sure if Henry explained it to me. It would indeed be funny. lol.

Henry McComas (director of the critically acclaimed film, Emerald City) has posted his blog about the trip on Crookedlp.com.
Stay tuned for more information on his newest project Pheonix Falling:
With that being said, Crookedlp.com, I cannot let this feeling escape; I have started pre-production for my next budgeted film “PHOENIX FALLING.” The film has had me interviewing geneticists, doctors, and piles of books for my latest dramatic, Science Fiction project. But that story is for another day. I will tell you all about it next time.
