Bullets is a web series written and directed by me. We shot a teaser in two days in March and used it to raise $18,140 on Kickstarter through crowdfunding. We’re now in preproduction and shooting June 20th to July 1st.

So hyped!

The video is a little rough, so it might be worth it to hit play and listen to the audio only.

I’d love to one day direct or write an animated film, something with heart, action and suspense, like Brad Bird.

The guys at Pixar have always done things right, and if you haven’t seen The Pixar Story yet, I highly suggest you go watch it.

In the meantime, I found these two videos on the 11SecondClub forums, Ed Catmull, John Lasseter and the late Steve Jobs, describing how Pixar works and how they put story first, something a lot of films should stop and do.

I had a really great group of people to work with, and I promise, sometime this week I’m going to write a post mortem about it and a few of my past spots as well.

A lot has happened over the past six months since I decided to jump into the waters and just start directing, and I think it warrants a blog post to wrap up my journey.

In the meantime, check out the gallery of photos.
