What's all this spyfest talk about?

I have a little taste of what we are up to with "Sleeper" for Spyfest. Mark Aro, Former Art Director for the game Lord of the rings:War of the rings, and many other video games, as well as the Art Director for Tolkien Franchise for Vivendi Universal Games, has teamed up with me to co-direct and do effects for the short.

:) So here is the Recipe for "Sleeper":

:thumbup: Add one HVX-200 a M2 35mm adapter, 12 foot Kessler Crane, dolly,+ton of cool equipment and mix well

:thumbup: Throw in a heavyweight Visual Effects Guru and add a generous helping of Art Direction

:thumbup: Sprinkle in a dash of 3D Studio Max with a hefty serving of Compositing and Visual Effects through Combustion on other VFX toys

:thumbup: Mix in a director, DP, camera guy with a vision, dedication, and an AWESOME story

:thumbup: Let sit for a while then add one professional sound engineer with his own studio in Fresno

:thumbup: Sprinkle some awesome actors and locations and bake for 1 hour.

:thumbup: Top it off with original Sound Effects, Foley Work and Professional Music Score

:) The Culinary Masterpiece created will be "Sleeper"

-Note to cook- Please make sure the meal is ready by May 1st...

The idea of crewing with you on a Spyfest entry is one more reason to move to LA...Hmmmm....

Forget all you guys. My Spyfest film is going to star:

JESUS CHRIST!

Top that.

I dunno if he wants to go where your story is going, Mark.

>=D I had such a laugh right before bed thinking of your high concept. It's so great, I'm feeling bad about my script now.

Why do I get the feeling that this recipe is missing something very important?

IF... come on, now. When you dropped the idea on me I was like.. "aw man... crap...". You have to do it.

And you HAVE to give me my feedback!!
