Major News:Photos from Upcoming Webseries Episode, Pet

Hey there.


Got a treat for you: a first look at photos from the upcoming MOTW Webseries episode, "Pet".

Now this episode from Emma Whitehall, will be unique, for this one will feature a female werewolf, a first for the series. When she sent me these pictures, which give a sneak peek of what the werewolf would look like, here is how she described the look and what she did to achieve it:

"I wanted our werewolf to have a slightly feminine look to her - she is still a strong, deadly animal, but the transformation still leaves her with an air of the human underneath it. Instead of having overly large gloves for paws, I attached some witch fingers to a pair of long sleeved gloves, and covered them with crepe hair. Under the dim light I think they look rather affective!"

Emma also included this sneak peek of what the ears will look like as well, even though they're still a work in progress. Here's how she described achieving that look:

"The ears are just a set of costume pixie ears, with the same crepe hair on them (the latex is still drying in the photo!) they fit quite nicely on without gluing them in place, but I think when it comes to filming I'll attach a little more hair to hide the seams."

Emma tells me filming is going well and will resume later on in the week. Watch for more photos as production continues and of course, catch the premiere of the full episode very soon.

Status Update: New Addition to Webseries Roster, Plus New Website Coming Soon!

Hey there.

Again, it's been a while since there's been an update on the webseries, but things are happening behind the scenes with writing (a few new story ideas have been put together) filming( at least one has begun production) and promotion. As soon as I get word on how things are progressing, I'll be sure to let everyone know.

I do want to extend a personal shout out to Josh Trett and his crew from Trett Films in England. Recently, Josh agreed to do an full length episode of the series. The episode, entitled "Survive the Night", will be written by Josh based on one of my story ideas. Currently, it is still in the writing stages, but I'll keep you posted on it's progress. Welcome aboard Josh!

Also, ever since the first promo trailer of the MOTW movie came out almost two years ago, I wanted to put together an official website for not only the movie, but the webseries as well. Well, I'm pleased to announce that it will become a reality very soon.

The official MOTW site will launch sometime by the end of the month or early December. Things will be limited at first, but soon the site will be the home to everything related to MOTW, from world premieres of the webisodes to all the news with the full length movie and everything in between. Of course, once the site is up, the blog site here will change its focus as well, but it will still play a vital role online.

I'm also looking into launching an official MOTW page on Facebook as well, probably around the time the new site launches, if not sooner. As for Twitter, right now that's not a focus because I'm not a subscriber to that social site. However, I may reconsider if there's enough of an interest to put MOTW on Twitter.

That's the latest for now. Stay tuned for future updates.

Major News: Filming Underway for New WebSeries Episode

Hey there.

Work has begun over the weekend on a new episode for the MOTW WebSeries.

Jackson Putnam from BrokenHouse Films -- the one behind the recent "Clock's Ticking" promo -- has informed me that he has started filming his episode, tentatively called "Intruder". He has also told me that he should have it completed very soon, perhaps sometime this week.

Stay tuned for further updates, including the world premiere of what will be the fourth episode of the series.

MOTW WebSeries Update

Hey there.

Things are still happening with the MOTW Webseries. Over the past few months, there's been some changeover with new people being added to the roster, while others have decided to drop out. Some will be doing mini episodes, or promos, as I call it. Some will be doing a bit of both. And there's been talk about how long the webseries will run and how long it will last.

So, here's a bit of a status report, as it stands right now:

--The webseries will resume with full on episodes sometime in October. I won't give an exact date until several are ready to go. In the meantime, plans are in the works for a new trailer to promote the series which should be ready later on this month.

--In the meantime, new promos are being planned and could debut later on this month or October for sure. I'm proud of the promo idea, as I've written several of these and there will be promos that will debut sporadically throughout the coming months.

--I want to give a personal shout out to Brett Driver and Emma Whitehall, two of the newest additions to the webseries roster. Brett and his company will be doing a full episode that I've written, and Emma, through her company, Inter Productions, will be doing her own original story, "Pet", that will be part of the series. I've met her through my good online friend Tony Gardner, who brought us "The Garage", the third episode of the series. I've read her story and it is very unique, which is what the series is all about. Welcome aboard guys.

--I'm in talks with several others about contributing to the series and will announce their names once things are set.

--I'm also in the process of directing an episode or two myself, but again it is in the talking stages.

-- Other episodes that have been announced over the past few months have started production. When they get closer to being completed, I'll fill you in.

--As to the number of how many episodes will be part of the series, it'll be somewhere between 12 to 14, which means the series will carry over into next summer. That may change, of course, but that will be the best estimate. There's also a chance that a few more episodes will be exclusively seen on the webseries DVD, which will be released next year as well.

--Also, plans are in the works for a new official website, which should be ready to go before the year's out.

And that's it. As always, things are subject to change, but do know that the series will continue and things are moving behind the scenes. Once this get rolling again, it promises to be an exciting ride from now until 2010. So stay tuned.
