It’s been a fulfilling road and now all of the elements are in place. The time has come to produce the first trailer.

This journey has been a series of one awesome surprise to perceived miracles as I action toward the finish line. It is truly about marveling and making the sweetest juice along the way. Yes, I’m mixing euphemisms here to get to the point of maximized enjoyment. I’ve crafted large scale productions and small scale film and video productions. Now that I have been in the Bay for 6 years, (a dream come true since 16 years of age), my focus has been on writing, now producing moving to direct

Identifying StArS

Being in the Bay is much like foraging a forest of alchemist, ingenuity and technology. Some of the brightest Minds and deepest Souls reside in this region. In search of lead role fulfillment calls for stellar research skill, strategy and patience. I say this because I am not looking for a proclaimed “superstar”, I definitely want local bright beings with professional acting experience. I’ve been in my cocoon last few years writing, perfecting, the screenplay and now it’s imperative to come out and mingle seeking attracting, those that will

What is Premonition Activating?

premonitionthefilm/ July 3, 2019/ leaps and bounds/ 0 comments

… All in all, it’s the thoughts we entertain, the music we hear, the food we eat, the steps we take (or not) and the people we engage that activate this full sensory living breathing experience. Allow what you see to only be a singular, infinite, reference point(s) toward advantage of a broadening perspective. To acknowledge infinity while standing solid in your absolute truth is to see (beyond your eyesight), or sense, what IS. If you know / believe something or someone is positively affecting, it becomes that for

We deserve better stories.

In this day we are witnessing a surge of stories that stray from the fairytale scenarios. Even though humans have similarity in phases of life, (birth, infancy, youth, young adult, adulthood, golden years, and death), we each journey with different experiences because of our unique perspectives. The more stories we know, a broadening of perspective takes shape and makes room for compassion, moving one closer to passion. We need more passion and compassion in the world. With stories that challenge our perspective we are meet with reflection of self

Why not Hollywood?

That’s right, I’ve chosen to produce this film in the Bay Area! Living in Oakland has been a true gift of inspiration and spirit to move big dreams forth. The culture here is thick with ingenuity, startup mentality and conscious collective movements. The question comes up all the time, “Why aren’t you in LA?” To that I say, NAY! The soul of this film must remain intact and not be spoiled by greed-agenda filled pockets. It is a ultra-conscious decision to produce this film in Oakland. The primary locations

In The Works

Wow! This is a monumental step…again. It may be a simple action to publish a website these days, as it is, yet getting to this point has taken a couple years. “Why?” You ask. The crafting of this story was my first narrative feature length screenplay writing, it took ~2.5 years to reach final edit to copyright status. Film-making has been my passion for 20+ years and my profession for 15+ years, 17+ years as a holistic arts practitioner and arts & culture advocacy entrepreneur. The development of this
