Just a zany world called JiveTown!!!

So I know it has been forever since I've written on this thing. I suppose now's as good a time as any to get back into it. We've just launched the trailer and fundraising campaign for a new web series comedy called JiveTown, based loosely on my good friend Agosto Cuellar - a San Antonio celebrity, the man Tim Gunn dubbed "the Wild Card," his vintage store which is right next to my office, and the wonderfully weird world of Southtown (the arts community here in SA) that I've called home for the past decade or so. This is something special. I feel it in my guts. We've got an absolutely amazing cast and crew. Our leads Michael Sorrells and Theo Gutierrez were in the film that just won at the Austin Film Festival last fall, and we're working with phenomenal DP Sean Maxwell, who's been in the business for like 25 years or some shit... he knows everything about everything about shooting.. he's my mentor and probably one of the best in the business. You may know some of his work, like Breaking Bad, Friday Night Lights, Machete, Spy Kids, etc. etc. I'll go on.. oh yes I will.. but not tonight.. trying to take a little break and spend some down time with the husbunny. But please if you want to support something really different, really clever, funny and original, something made by people who are passionate about creating film and who want so very badly to see all the fabulous people that are part of this be able to live their dreams, then check this out:
