THE ROAD IS LONG...
But as long as you have company, the journey is much easier and more fun.
Last Friday, I and my long time writing partner of Milkshake fame were eating tacos at a local Mexican joint. He had just come back from Mexico after directing house reality for a salacious, unscripted TV show where everyone sleeps with everyone. It sounded gross.
We drifted onto the topic of Changelings and all the progress I've been making on my own, but also how difficult it's been pushing this Sisyphean rock up the hill. Mark and I had a blast making Milkshake, but it's been a long time since we ventured into production together.
I asked if he'd be interested in helping me produce Changelings and he LEPT at the opportunity!
So, it looks like...
To add to the good news, a co-worker at the production company I frequent for money is interested in coming on board as a co-producer and locations manager!
So what can I say? I feel like...
Tonight I'm going to be discussing the score with Taylor Jordan of Dramatix and will upload a couple of new tracks he's been experimenting with today. Keep an eye, and ear, out for that.
In the meantime, I'll be getting back to the Vlogging this weekend for some more-better-besting updates!

WHO DIS IS
If you want to know who I am and what Distant Signal is, check this out. It's sort of a manifesto. The TL;DR is that I've won an award for producing, make a lot of reality TV, live in LA and think that artist and media incentives are misaligned and serve large corporations and not independent artists.
The fist horror / thriller film made on and with the Steem blockchain. Use this hashtag to find out all about it!

To create narratives, comedies and documentaries that are short, fun, interesting and cinematic.
I am excited for you, Phil! Filmmaking is not a one (wo)man show, we can't all be like Robert Rodriguez on El Mariachi.
I'm looking forward to upcoming posts :>)
P.S. Who knows, perhaps you could assist me in the writing of 'How to not make a Movie'. I wrote a post about starting a book with that title, some weeks ago but - partially due to this post by you as well as by past experience - I wonder if I should and can do it alone. I'm sure you are plenty busy though haha :>)

Thanks, Vince! I am very busy right now, but if I can help I will. I'd be happy to at least read some of what you're writing and even offer some thoughts. New post coming soon. Good developments and a much, much better short script.
