the NAUSEA subsides
As we reached the end of production for NAUSEA earlier today (actually about a month ago, but late on my updates); I was overcome with a feeling of great joy followed by an intense void. This is the feeling that all filmmakers receive when faced with the end of two year production of a single [...]
It’s been a NAUSEOUS winter…
It has been a long time since I have spoken to you about the NAUSEA process… and what a process it has been!
We began production in the latter parts of October, 2008. Originally we had planned on going it without making a schedule and shooting the picture in chronological order. I wanted the story to [...]
Snow makes me sick…
We were on a role… nearly 1/4th of the way through production. We cut a trailer (which I think is pretty damn sweet) editing the picture has been going very well. The shooting schedule for today and tomorrow would have put us to the 1/4 mark. but the goddamn, fucking snow has most likely fucked [...]
Beautiful Vomit
Nearly complete with the first 13 pages of the screenplay. Shooting in chronological order; scene by scene; moment by moment; it has proven to be an eye opening and effective tool. Ecspecially when doing a picture with the girth and magnitude of NAUSEA. It has been slow, meticulous, and naturally evolving.
I was slightly concerned when [...]
A NAUSEATING morning
So yesterday was a very, very big day. For the first time in this production we put a camera in front of Lindsay Howard, the lead actress… wow! It is once in a lifetime when an artist can see his perfect vision of his creation take full form in front of his very eyes. Lindsay [...]
I Feel NAUSEOUS
About four weeks of production has passed now since we began this beast-whore called NAUSEA. We are successfully through 1/8th of the script (as in almost 1/8th of the script (about 7 pages) has been shot and put into post). Yay! The footage is quite good, the acting is impressive, the evolution of story and [...]
A NAUSEOUS creation
Creation is a beautiful thing. I love being a creator. I know why God has such an ego now and demands the worship of his minions… just kidding, I don’t deserve worship from anyone; nor do I desire it.
Filming is a slow process this time around. In the past, Evil Wine has gone through a [...]
WetorethaWetoremy
We tore my fucking house apart yesterday. I cried and cried and cried inside. You see, I pride myself in the perfect order of my home. The design I have put forth is my own and no one can change… until Evil Wine takes over, deciding that the apartment is perfect for the location of [...]
And NAUSEA begins
Last night we received the camera. My balls dropped, chest hair grew (not that I needed anymore), and I think I ejaculated rainbows. Fart Face and I picked it up from Dingleberry’s house and went to Fart’s house. We tested some miniscule things, did inventory, and went our separate ways to rest up before election [...]
NAUSEOUS Halloween
So Halloween was pretty snazzy… I tend to have a boner most of that day. of course, the weather was perfect, the lighting was great… I went with Dustin to some yuppy fuck bar in downtown Boise to watch Lindsay do her sideshow dance for some band… great drummer, decent guitar player, horrible bassist… sexy [...]
NAUSEA continues…
So I met with an actress yesterday at the amazing little cafe in Hyde Park called the Sun Ray Cafe (where a great deal of the filming is going to take place). Her name was (and hopefully still is) Lisa Ramos. Dustin Jones and myself sat for a few minutes rolling cigarettes and drinking a [...]
NAUSEA and Stomach Acid
As I lied around yesterday rubbing my stomach and staring at the sky I thought about the colors; the wonderful, wonderful colors… and how amazing this feeling is inside my stomach… this pain, the acid sloshing around against the lining. Corrosion. The thick, beautiful, creamy nicotine filled smoke from my rolled cigarette dances across my [...]
A NAUSEOUS start
Today is a grim day. A cock sucking grim day. 4 a.m. I awaken to my empty apartment… it smells like coffee and perfection (I have been cleaning relentlessly for some reason). I am trying to quit smoking (again), I am irritable because the fucking camera has still not been retrieved from Colorado (at [...]
This NAUSEOUS wait…
Preproduction is as complete as it is going to get…
The movie is nearly cast, or at least as cast I want it to be before production starts.
The locations have all been located, but not confirmed… which is the way I like it.
Costumes are not really all that necessary, but Lindsay (Howard) and I are going [...]
The Birth of NAUSEA
My addiction to storytelling all began when I came out of my mother’s vaginal walls, covered in blood and creamy mucus; fighting desperately to get the attention I deserved from her. When I was seven I had to compete with my three brother’s for the love of my dying grandma. I easily won by deciding [...]
