What am I? Went to www.keirsey.com and it tells me I' an ARTISAN:
"Artisans are the temperament with a natural ability to excel in any of the arts, not only the fine arts such as painting and sculpting, or the performing arts such as music, theater, and dance, but also the athletic, military, political, mechanical, and industrial arts, as well as the "art of the deal" in business.
Artisans are most at home in the real world of solid objects that can be made and manipulated, and of real-life events that can be experienced in the here and now. Artisans have exceptionally keen s

After a hibernation of over 2 years, the LostSheep Writers Island, in similar fashion to that island in the tv show 'Lost', has resurfaced!
Writing group meetings will commence again as of next tuesday (23rd June) in Glebe at the AB Hotel (upstairs). If you're keen to write more and live in Sydney, then come and join us next week. You can let us know you're coming by sending a message on the Contact page - link at the top of the page. Or register on the island as a resident
On other film things you'll notice I've made a silly vid

Well a busy few weeks! 'Nuns With Guns' has been watched over 4000 times on Vimeo and YouTube, plus when you search for it on Google, it's been 'appropriated' by quite a few other sites as well! Some even offering iPod versions etc! Very gratifying! :-)
For a bit of fun (and to dodge getting on with any more proposals), we decided to make another thing - to refilm the last scene of Planet of the Apes. You can see it to the right of this entry. The original version can be seen here. Clearly our version is far superior. Certainly

Yoyo, I've been getting great feedback from people about 'Nuns with Guns' which is very gratifying. In fact it's even been chosen as the 'Project of the Week' over at the Celtx website. I use Celtx to write my scripts with. This is hardly the best example of it's use but hey I still appreciate the recognition. Good on ya guys! The site is :Project Central.
On other sibjects we've been making some big changes to the Feature plans, including a brand new concept. I've started on a whole new script but it should still be ready to go in a few more months.

Just finished the 'Nuns With Guns' trailer, it should be available on the front page. Done over a couple of weekends, on a budget of $100. Good fun. The EX1 performed well. A bit of fun, completely tongue in cheek trailer. The question is - do you want to see the actual movie at the end??? - more

More news. Chocolate script is now complete. Need to begin the process of casting sooner than later.
'Finally' short film was played at Kino Sydney on monday night (www.kinosydney.com) where it went down pretty well. Actually came across as the slickest film of the night I'd say. Anyways it was also St Pats night so I got horrendously drunk afterwards. But that's another story/script. Will be uploading Lemmings and Finally to the website this evening. So the Vimeo migration will be complete Mwaahhh.
Anthony Minghella died last night in London. I've enjoyed his films and it's

Our pretty little daughter. Born September 2007. She is kind of cute if I say so myself! Yes I do appear topless, watch out for that one. Also a couple of pissed off Coco's just so you know it isn't all sweetness and light.

I'm well overdue for an update on this page!
Editing has finished on our latest little experiment - Finally. We filmed it over a weekend, before xmas, but have since actually completed the edit and even graded it. Used a few After Effects tricks in it which was fun. Part of the reason for making it was that a:it would be a simple shoot (time has been short for me over the last few months as a result of fatherhood) and b: as an antidote to Lemmings whhich was a very structured and completely indoor shoot. This one was purely hand held, virtually all outdoors and just fun. Big shout to

Howdy! OK another LostSheep Film Update. The Farmer film also ended up on the back-burner (though may well rise again in March 2008). Instead we went ahead with filming 'Finally' a two-hander assasin short set in central Sydney. Finishing off shooting of that this coming weekend. I expect it to be ready for the website mid-jan. Plans for a feature film next year are also coming together, beginning with the purchase of a brand spanking new Sony PMW-EX1 video camera in the very near future. It's a fine piece of kit and will be the main camera for the film. Bloody well should be as I'm about to d - more

Some few delays brought on by fatherhood, but back in the saddle now with the 'Farmers Tale' short ready for filming. 'Jury Service' has been postponed - I've spoken to the AGD re Balmain court. It's the right decision. Now to find the right actor for the next short!
My first daughter's name is Coco. She has no idea how many starring roles I am already planning for her!!

Whoo hoo! Jury Service is going ahead! Waiting for the paperwork from the AGD but it looks like Balmain court is locked in! Will now need to properly start prepping for this film!
I also filmed a young performer called Jessie Hoebeck last wednesday and we may do some more filmig over this APEC weekend to finish her showreel.
Plus I'm also just finishing the first draft of my 'walk through the city' script so that should be fun. Hopefully we can film next weekend..
It's all good! I guess everything happens for a reason in the end.. and if you put enough energy into s

Actionfest was a bit of a disappointment last night, in it's organisation and judging but hey I frankly don't give a fuck. Jury Service short is coming along nicely now, we have a new date for filming of the 3-4th November, have found an AWESOME court. I can't believe I wasted so much time trying to get UTS or UWS to come to the party - then try to charge me a rate about 10x higher than to use a REAL court. You have to laugh! LOL. Doing a new draft of the shooting script this weekend, probably tomorrow. - more

I will be posting the film soon, in the meantime you can come along on 24th August to the Paddington RSL and watch the finalists. More information here.. $13K in prizes? The Court Short project is starting to make me pull my hair out... but never say never. Still planning to film the next short in September..

I have decided to make ISO images of all LostSheep Films available for download. This means anyone will be able to burn and watch our shorts in the best possible quality. We will of course still have YouTube and Revver versions available for those with no patience who enjoy watching things in low resolution. More info on LostSheep Films can be found here. The ISO page will be created shortly. - more
