AMJ: Music Video

By |2016-12-31T02:17:29+00:00November 2nd, 2015|A Mother's Journey, Film, Short Film, Videos|0 Comments

It's 2am and I should be sound asleep, however I've stayed up to post my latest blog post because I know if I don't bite the bullet and do it now, I'll chicken out and not upload the video. Now I'm no music producer, however they say when needs must... well I needed a song and I couldn't afford a real composer, so I sat down and came up with lyrics I felt encapsulated Lola's feelings.  A bit long, but hey it is what it is and I'm happy with the joint efforts of myself and my bestie who is singing. The amazingly talented Claudia Young., whom I had to bully and emotionally blackmail into helping me.  You really know who your friends are when the chips are down and I'm truly blessed to be surrounded by some amazing people, who encourage me and tell to reach for my goals.  Thank [...]

AMJ: Poster is finally done

By |2016-12-31T02:17:29+00:00September 30th, 2015|A Mother's Journey, Film, Short Film, Short Story|0 Comments

So it took me a moment, but I finally got the poster done.  One of the major problems with a no budget project is that one becomes a jack of all trades.  So I shan't be giving up my day job. UGH just lost a huge chunk of my post and can't remember what I'd written, so I shall keep this post short and sweet because my brain is fried.  I really should've typed it in Scrivener and then done a copy and paste.  It's how I normally do my blog posts, but on this occasion I decided to type straight into he text editor and with my luck... Anyway, I think I said something along the lines of it took me ages to create the posters and for someone who isn't a graphic designer, it's not such a bad job.  So basically I was patting myself on the back, [...]

AMJ: Picture is Locked YAY

By |2016-12-31T02:17:30+00:00September 17th, 2015|A Mother's Journey, Film|0 Comments

It's finally official, yesterday picture was locked on A Mother's Journey and now it's a case of waiting for sound design and the grade to be done.  I'm proud of what I've accomplished so far, but this film still has a long way to go before it is as AMAZING as I know it can be. When I started this journey, I had aspirations of submitting it to the big festivals, getting in and eventually winning an Oscar.  Some may say it's an impossible dream, a pipe dream given the state of the industry today.  But I can't let those old fears derail me and hold me captive, what I've got to keep doing is striving and reaching for the improbable.  Not sure who said it, but it's a quote I love to write when doing a book signing; Reach for the stars and the moon shall [...]
