Back in 1998, I watch the movie “Titanic” and reasoned that I could make a similar blockbuster on a much smaller budget. That didn’t work out at the time, but I’ve since been involved in several video projects and plan to start a production company to create more in the future. Here is what I’m working on right now.
The Hitchhiking Movie
Also known as “Thumbs Up,” this film was a collaboration between myself and actor Ryan Jeanes. We met in the same way I have met most of the significant people in my life…at a bar in Texas. After learning that he was a fellow hitchhiker, a plan was hatched to produce a film defending hitchhiking as a safe and exciting method of travel (albeit impractical).
Our budget was extremely low and everything was shot in a very raw manner. The movie is self-distributed and will be available for sale online in Winter 2008.
Upcoming Projects
Next year (if funding comes through), I will be involved in the production of a film about Costa Rica. More details will be posted here later.
Parawing Productions (my production company) is currently writing a script for a “factual” documentary about hell. As of this writing, we have been unable to gain access to the facilities and therefore are very interested in speaking with someone who has been there.
