ELECTROCUTING THE ELEPHANT (THOMAS EDISON, 1903)

Besides fake inventing the film camera, Thomas Edison was big into electricity. In order to prove Westinghouse and Telsa wrong, by showing the public how dangerous AC power was, he decided to electrocute an elephant that was causing a ruckus at Coney Island. It is believed that while Edison's people set the wires up, Topsy felt deep regret towards those she had harmed....

Okay. That last part was fake, but the rest is true. And here's the evidence......

ALMOST THERE

Blogging hasn't been a huge priority lately. For nearly a year I've been shooting a movie with my buddy E. Traeger. It's going to be about 45 min. long and I don't think I anticipated how long it would take to complete.

It's pretty difficult making movies, just in case you didn't know.

Anyway, below there is a link to a totally rough, unfinished, without sound effects, clip of our short motion picture. The title is FRAME WORK. It's about an inept screenwriter that dreams about the first and last day of a relationship he had with a girl named Anna. The only problem is, he can't wake up.

Here's a link to a little SPLASH PAGE I drew up for the the movie. Right now it's just apart of my personal website, but I should probably be starting a stand alone for the picture, right? Yeah. I know. We should probably focus on the editing and sound design first....

This clip will mean nothing to all of you, because it is out of context and unfinished. Hopefully, though, it is intriguing?
