Welcome! My intention with this blog is to provide updates to those who might be interested in my current project, a half-hour long animated film about David the shepherd and the events leading up to the most famous battle in history. This film will use an animation technique that has never been done before. I hope to offer a unique visual experience that can measure up to the impact and drama of this truly inspirational story about faith.

Unfortunately, after a year in preproduction, I've come to realize that to see my entire script realized will take more time and manpower than I currently have access to. So my goals have evolved, and I am now focusing on bringing just the first scene of the script to fruition as a standalone short film. This film will be called "David and the Lion" and will tell the story of David rescuing a lamb from a lion, an event barely mentioned in the bible. When that film is finished, I hope to be able to attract the help I need to finish the larger movie I set out to make.

750 Photos for 211 Dollars!

For the last 30 days, I have been downloading 25 high-resolution, royalty-free photos each day using my Shutterstock.com subscription. So now I own the rights to every photo of Israel's countryside in Shutterstock's 5.5 million photo library. What do I plan on doing with these photos? Thanks for asking. They will be the building blocks of the backgrounds for David and the Lion's 158-plus shots. Elements of each photo will be cut out, color corrected, and composited in 3D space to build surreal backgrounds with depth.
