Ode to Browntown.

O

Excuse the fragmented speech, this is a rough one. It’s January 30th, 2016… and Brownie can’t get up. She’s going downhill. “Remember the time she got pepper sprayed?”, my brother exclaimed as he held his freshly cracked beer. “The 30 mph dog… we clocked her while chasing her in the suburban. I remember the front door would open by a crack and there...

S

Hello Everyone! This weekend (Sunday May 1, 2016 – 1515 w. Collins ave., Orange, Ca, 92867 11:00am-1:00pm) I’m doing something a little different, and a little special. I will be a judge in a dog pageant in Orange. My sister is doing a fundraiser for Miss California (she’s currently Miss Southern Coast), and she asked me to be a judge at. That being said, I’m throwing in a...

A Soldier’s Response to the 15 hour Minimum Wage remark with the photo of the injured Marine.

A

I created this, because I was tired of people sharing my response, and having it lost in the re-share process of facebook. This is a very personal blog, so if you’re here for other production reasons, you can skip this one. Ok, hot button issue here with me. I’ve seen this a lot. Yes, we don’t pay our service men and women enough, but as a former soldier in the army, I can break...

The History of Wayland Productions – Part 1 – Coming Home

T

Wayland Productions has been around for a long time. I created it in high school as a way to start and establish a business early for creating multimedia content. Officially, I guess our anniversary is 1997, but in many ways it started even before then, with stop-motion animation and a few guerrilla films I shot on the weekends with friends. The content was a bit lacking back then, but you have...

Outpost 1; Life Finds A Way

O

First, a little background… The marathon that is “having a child,” started for me about May of last year [2015]. At the same time, my company was starting to prep for launching our Kickstarter campaign for We’re Alive: Lockdown. In fact, the mini series was already deep in pre-production, when my wife, Blaire, and I decided to try to have a child. For some crazy reason, I...

WA:Lockdown is in the can!

W

Ok, so technically it’s not a physical “can”, but several copies on hard drives to say the least… but we are wrapped on principle recording! There’s still a few pickups to do here and there for some small side-characters and kickstarter backers, but most all the performances have been captured! I’ll stop putting exclamation marks now, but really, this was quite...
