Trollcake Variety Show Podcast + Script
This is a proposed podcast Trollcake Variety Show test made in 2014. It was mostly an experiment to showcase my voice acting skills. We ended up dropping the idea but it still lives on for your enjoyment.

Making a Music Video for “My Best Friend” by Emili
Trollcake’s talented Emili Harris just posted a sample of her new track My Best Friend.
The song features her soft, lovable voice singing, while she plays gorgeous acoustic guitar chords.
Her brothers and I love the song so much we decided to secretly make a music video for it, starring Emili as a cartoon character.
Kelvin sketched out these three character drawings.
TJ & I will be working on storyboarding, then painting backgrounds and then animation.

SEX MANIAC – Based on True Events – a screenplay concept by Richard Harris
2014-05-27 01:06:51
I am currently in the process of completing a script for this amazing movie idea I hope to make in the future. Based on actual events, the movie is called:
SEX MANIAC * (working title only)
based on true eventsSummary:
Follows the [sexual] escapades of a sexual-psychopath, from adolescence into his forties. How his super-charged sexual appetite (sex-addiction, or whatever the sickness he has can be called) has damaged the lives of countless victims, with special focus on the lives of four or five of his sexual victims.
Imagine a film featuring an egocentric male with a very long shlong (yes, Dirk Digler-like) who is so proud of it that he shows it to every female he possibly can, hoping they will jump in the sack with him for the mere experience. Yes.
More to follow...
* Not to be confused with any film or story called “Maniac”, nor any of the images associated on this post.

The Mirror – A Test Short Film Project
Two weeks ago, we started on a short film project, called The Mirror.
The goal was to make it a silent film, in color, under 10 minutes. We decided on closer to 5-6 minutes. We wrote the script (really just a breakdown of the shots and the story, since it has no dialog) and then set out to film test footage.
This is that test footage, edited together as one cohesive film. Consider this something along the lines of an animatic, or storyboards. The purpose was to get an idea of how the locations looked on film, and how the shots (camera angles, etc) would work.
Enjoy! 🙂 http://youtu.be/4V5ZOVVN9gw
