Rescrambled

There’s been a lot of changes on my end. This however does not change the master plan of doing four shorts! Due to recent changes, however, things are going to be rearranged and pushed and pulled across the fabric of space-time. To be frank I’ve always wanted to do a Noir film. While Nosferatu: A Modern Rendition has aspects of Noir because of its influences and because Nosferatu was one of the influences for Noir itself, it was not intended to be full on Noir.

In its entirety, Nosferatu: A Modern Rendition was going to become increasingly action/ horror. The second half was going to be a flash forward to the end with some notes of comedy and hints of drama. A real genre blender! But due to general setbacks and conflicting availabilities the second part will not be finished for a long, long time. If anything it will remain as it is with Harker and the Strange Driver (Dracula) driving into the night towards the castle.

All this being laid on the table, the play by Ibsen is going to be done at a later date and Shakespeare’s Medea in the key of Noir will be the next project in play. I’m still trying to decide if I should set it in the 1960s or in the current. Either way it’s going to be absolutely beautiful. Lord willing, all this done by the end of the year.

As for the other projects. I’ve been doing a ton of pre-production, or lining up my shots and networking. Some of them are done paperwork wise (researched over the years/ academic papers/ concept art). Some of them are still an idea. And some are just about ready to go and all I need is a cast and a crew. I’ve been working on other projects and doing some personal homework on directing and cinematography in the meantime, so don’t freak out. This whole layover has been wholly productive in life as art and art as a science.
