Major News: MOTW Web Series Premiere Delayed till February

Hey there.

First of all, thanks to everyone who's sent off messages about the web series trailer.

Also, I want to thank all of you for your patience as you await the world premiere of the series.

The trailer posted the launch date for January 5th, but my friend Will's computer troubles -he's doing the first episode, by the way- caused it to be delayed till the 13th. At the time, it looked like the problems were taken care of and that it was going to make the new date.

But, mere hours before the webisode was set to debut, the computer troubles struck again.

So, now Will tells me that more than likely he'll have to get a new computer. So that means the series will be delayed yet again. I talked with him about when would he think be the best time that it'll be ready. He told me most likely February.

So that's when the series will begin.

Sometime in February.

As to an exact date, I'm not going to say. After being burned twice after posting a premiere date, I've decided not to do so until I get the date 100% locked in. So the moment I do, that's when you know.

So, as it stands right now, the first two episodes are set for February and March. Plans are underway to confirm what will be on April. Also, there have been some slight changes as to who will be doing what. A few members have dropped out while some new ones have agreed to join the roster. I'll fill you in on the changes on the next post.

Anyway, thanks again for your patience. I'll let you know when the series will officially get started.

Major News: MOTW Web Series Premiere Date Rescheduled, New Poster Unveiled

Hey there.

Two bits of news to report.

First, I'm proud to unveil a new poster in anticipation of the MOTW Web Series' rescheduled premiere date (which I'll mention in a moment) It's on the left.


The photo contains some screen shots from the trailer promoting the series and I've also included the two main sources where you'll see the webisodes, YouTube.com and Stage 6.com.

Once the series is up and running, the episodes, along with any related extras, will be seen on both sites, as well as here. I'm also in the process, with some help from my friend Will Phelps, of setting up channels on both YouTube and Stage 6, where they'll be centrally located. I'll let you know when they're up.

Now, for the other piece of news. The webseries now has a new premiere date. Originally scheduled for January 5th, the first episode is now set to debut tomorrow night (Sunday Jan. 13th.)

Will Phelps, who is doing the debut episode, has been dealing with some computer problems the past week or so, delaying things for a few days. Well, he has since gotten the problem fixed and he will soon upload the webisode tomorrow.


So stay tuned for the next post on this blog. That's when you'll be able to see the first episode of MOTW: The Web Series.

Major News: MOTW Web Series Premiere Delayed, First Pics from Debut Episode

Hey there.

I know you were expecting to see the first episode of MOTW: The Web Series by now. The trailer promoting the series announced that it would premiere on Saturday, Jan. 5. And up into that point, it was going to be the case.

But now, things have been delayed for a few days.

My friend William Phelps, who is doing the first episode of the webseries, has been having some problems with his computer and is unable to process the footage he's done so far. So because of that, the episode wasn't ready by the announced premiere date.

These things happen, I've had my share of computer problems over the years, so I know how that goes.

Talking with him earlier, Will's told me that he should have things straightened out this week. So the best case scenario is that the first episode will debut on Wednesday. I'll let you know for sure when it is ready to go.

In the meantime, to hold things over, Will's provided some pictures from the yet-to-be-titled debut episode. Here they are:

























So stay tuned. The first episode of the webseries debuts later on this week.

Status Update: Movie Lead Role to Be Recast-- Again; Webseries Trailer to Premeire This Week

Hey there, first of all, Happy New Year.

I hope 2008 will be the year of MOTW, both with the full length movie as well as the web series, so with that in mind, here's some news on both projects:


-MOTW: The Movie -- Some news to report. Looks like I'll be recasting the lead role yet again. My friend Josh informed me recently that he won't be able to commit full time to the movie because he'll be busy doing work over in California. I wish him well in his new endeavors and I told him the door is still open for him if he wants.

Now, unlike last time where I was just crushed over having to recast, this time I'm not too upset about it. This means that I'll be planning things out to include the lead role in the upcoming casting call. So I'll keep you posted.

I've also had a meet with one of my old college professors, letting him know about my project and seeing if I can use the resources of the school towards the movie. He told me he will help out, so I will definitely take advantage of it.

Also, I've contacted a couple of possible leads for makeup artists for the movie as well. It's still very very early and I've yet to hear anything back, but again I'll keep you posted.

-MOTW: The Webseries -- Things are progressing along as far as the web series goes. After first planning to begin the series of webisodes in December, it will now start January 5th instead. My friend Will Phelps will be doing the first episode, with future installments to follow once a month.

I've also crafted together a trailer to promote the upcoming series, which will debut this week. You'll be able to see the trailer here on this page and on YouTube as soon as it's done.

The development of the series has come along pretty well. I've helped establish another storyline for one friend who's doing an episode and come up with a couple more ideas for others.
As always, I'll keep you posted.

That's the latest for now. Watch for the world premeire of the webseries trailer on the next post, with the series debut to follow.
