And back again

Mon Nov 16, 2009, 11:38 AM
The November seminar was disappointing in some ways. For one, 8 paid fighters, plus one from the headline match, just did not show. And it was freezing cold.

Also, the new owner invoked using the escape clause, and turned the business back over. This is actually a good thing. While the money was nice, he really did not understand the MMA world and was making things difficult.

So, we are back to flying without a net.

Specific changes

Well, one in particular...

I had been a volunteer for our local MMA gym. I had been asked to do the bookkeeping, and took over all the paperwork. No one really wanted to own the gym, so I turned it into a 501(c)(7) non-profit with a three person Board of Directors.

As of last Monday, the non-profit has been purchased. The new owner hired the Board. I am now the Marketing Manager. It's an interesting set-up, with a lot of fun work to do.

And it came with a laptop.

So, I am finally back on-line.

life = change

"Everything flows, nothing stands still." - Heraclitus of Ephesus

Or as people say today - The only constant in life is change.

Things are changing. This update is late as one of the changes is that my computer is dead. Looks like the hard drive has crapped out on me.

Lots of changes elsewhere, too. Work, volunteering, relationships...everything is in a greater state of flux than normal.

But it's all for the good, I believe.

Updates

Hybrid - Hybrid is on hold due to having to recast some roles.

New - In negotiations for a movie role. It's a rather nice role. If it all works out, I will be in L.A. for 8-10 weeks for it this Fall.

Other than that, I am off to The American Legion, Department of Oregon annual convention. It's in Newport, Oregon.

I'll be back Saturday.

Hybrid - Curse of the Black Lotus

Sat May 9, 2009, 2:49 PM
The Hybrid Series is a new series of movie shorts being created by the Portland, OR based Blank Slate Productions.

The MySpace page is: [link]

The series is about a dark superhero called Hybrid.

The first episode, Curse of the Black Lotus, is currently filming. Part 4 has recently been written. Daniel Holms, Producer and Writer, is fantastic. The script for Curse is wonderful!

If you are wondering why I have the script, it's because I have been cast in a medium-sized supporting role. It's a re-occurring charactor.

That is the news I have been sitting on for several weeks now.

In other personal acting news, I spent yesterday on the set of TNT's Leverage as an Extra and Background. Leverage is currently filming season 2. At the end of season 1, they moved their principal location to Portland. If you are interesting in working as Background for the show, and live in the Portland area, they announcing their casting calls on Craig's List, through Rutabega Casting.

Yesterday was a 13 hour day. Long, but a lot of fun. The cast and crew of the show are great. It was a very positive experience all around.
