I’m staggering this information out slowly, but the BBS Documentary DVD set is now available for pre-order. The page to pre-order it from is http://www.bbsdocumentary.com/order. Everyone who signed up to be notified is now notified. Basically, you can order my set from KAGI.COM and PAYPAL.COM. Between them, they can handle almost every major money transaction […]
Imagine you have, in front of you, a machine. It is unlike any other machine in the world, although it might look like a lot of them. On this machine are your dreams, dreams you had about people you once knew and a life you once lived, or wanted to live. In these dreams, people […]
One of the advantages of going through my documentary and related DVD creation is that I get to put my personal mark or belief into the whole process. That is, at critical junctures where I saw things I didn’t like in documentaries and DVDs, I can now go “I will do this differently.” Or, maybe […]
I’m happy to finally give some firm information about the release of the documentary and a chance for people to see it before it’s released on DVD. This has been years in the making, so I’m pretty excited about the whole thing. First of all, I have basically committed to finish the BBS documentary this […]
I am occasionally going to reprint articles elsewhere, for this relatively new audience. This is from a year or two ago. Write your own, too; you’ll be glad you did. It’s too easy in life to forget the people who helped make you what you are, who inspired you and gave you the early lessons […]
A old high-school chum of mine, Terry Tocantins (pronounced TOH can TEENS), was the producer for a rather unique and interesting documentary called “A Galaxy Far, Far Away”, which told the story of a group of hardcore fans who waited outside a theatre for 30 days before the premiere of the new Star Wars film, […]
I’m going to go over the process of taking my video footage to where I can edit it. I’m doing this because there’s a relative dearth of explanation from people how they do things, and it’s just a nice thing to leave it up where others can find it on a search. I made the […]
Throughout the production of the documentary, there have been a number of projects I have picked up, related yet not related, which have sat and waited for me to get to them. Some of these projects involve doing work with the possessions of others that I have been holding for (in some cases) upwards of […]
It is a surreal feeling, having pushed a rock up a hill for a very long time, to find the load suddenly lighter. In fact, as you consider it, the rock is not just getting lighter, but is possibly moving on its own. At that point, it will dawn on you that you have in […]
I thought I’d mention a few documentaries I’m aware of that are either out or coming out, since I know that I would appreciate the same in their shoes. Time will tell if my release date (which is the end of this year) will coincide with theirs. It nearly goes without saying that I intend […]
