Hey there.
Big news to share with you. After months of planning, the official web site for the MOTW movie and webseries will launch sometime this weekend.
Once the site launches, you'll see pictures, videos (including world premieres of episodes and promos and trailers), and more stuff right at the site. It'll be simple at first, but in the coming months the site will grow and expand as things move along.
Also, on the same day the official site launches, the MOTW page on Facebook will launch as well.
As for this blog site, things here will change once the new site goes live. It'll still be the home for news and information about both the series and the movie, but everything else regarding MOTW will be posted on the new site.
So stay tuned for the official launch of the new MOTW website this weekend.

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".
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.

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.

Major News: MOTW Web Series Returns in August. New Episode Announced.
Hey there.
It's been a while since there's been any news regarding MOTW, but rest assured that things are happening behind the scenes. Especially with the webseries, which is why I'm pleased to make the announcement that the series will return sometime in August with an all-new webisode that will begin production soon.
My friend William Phelps, who did the first episode of the series, "Conundrum", will be directing this one, which will be a two-parter, with the first part slated to debut in August and the conclusion to follow in September.
Here's what the yet-to-be-titled episode will be about:
In a small and quiet suburban town where nothing ever happens, many unusual brutal deaths start to occur in the span of only a few days. When a young teenage girl is found dead, her two best friends begin to investigate on their own to find out what actually has happened, but they soon find out that nothing is what it seems.
This episode is on the fast track and you'll be able to see early photos from the shoot very soon.
Also, just before the series resumes, I plan to put together a brand new trailer with new scenes from upcoming episodes that are in the works. There's also the chance that you'll see the world premiere of a "mini-episode" sometime in August as well. I'll keep you posted.
As I told you before, things are happening behind the scenes and it won't be long before the web series ramps back up with new episodes that will debut each month till the early part of 2010.
Keep it here for further updates and major announcements.

MOTW 2009 Update
Hey again.
Been a while since my last update, but I wanted to let you know that things are still happening behind the scenes with the MOTW Webseries.
Another episode started production about a month ago. My online friend Chris Harris is working on this one, tentatively called "Birthright". I'll post pics from the episode very soon and hopefully you'll see a teaser trailer before the month's out.
Meanwhile, I'm about to put together a new series of promos and teasers to relaunch things for the webseries as we're closing in on debuting brand new episodes later on this spring. Stay tuned for more information on that.
And finally, I've updated the MOTW page on Vimeo.com with a new look and logo combining the joint efforts of both the movie and webseries. Check it out at http://vimeo.com/channels/motwchannel
That's it for now. Stay tuned for more updates.

MOTW's Plans for 2009
Hey there.
As we're a few weeks into the new calendar year, things continue to move along with both the MOTW movie and webseries.
So, at this time, I want to go over the tenative plans for both projects in 2009:
MOTW: The WebSeries -- Right now, the online series of short films is taking a brief break, but plans are to resume the series in February.
As mentioned in earlier posts, two episodes have recently started production and a third will be ramping up very soon. A fourth is still in production and hopefully be released shortly.
Unless things change, I expect there will be at least somewhere between 9 and 11 more episodes will be shown during the year. After that, the entire series will be released on DVD, with additional content and behind the scenes footage. I'm also considering adding one or two more episodes that will be exclusive to the DVD. The DVD plans are in the very early stages right now and I'll provide more on that later on this year.
Also, there will be several exclusive promos for the webseries that will debut during 2009. These promos, will be one to two minute original works that will set the theme for the series and will also serve to promote the episodes that are out now and those yet to come. Hopefully, you'll see them beginning sometime in February or March. These promos will also be included on the DVD.
MOTW: The Movie -- The full length movie is still in pre production, but things will pick up again in February with future meetings that will eventually set the stage for the project to begin filming.
My goal is to have a casting call sometime this spring with production soon to follow. If things work out, the movie will be done later on the year and we'll see how things go after that.
MOTW Miscellaneous -- Other things related to MOTW universe will also happen in 2009. Among them are: launching a full on official website as well as planning a comic book adaptation of the movie and original comics set in the universe.
I'll also be looking into creating an official page on Facebook and highlighting both the movie and webseries on other online vehicles.
That's the plans for the year ahead. Of course, things are subject to change -and added -depending on how things shake down in the coming months.
So, stay tuned as we move into what would be an eventful and jam packed year ahead for MOTW.

Got some news to share with you.
On Monday (January 10) production began on an upcoming episode of the MOTW WebSeries, "Exception".
This episode, coming from my online friend Gonzalo Guastavino, is being filmed in Brazil, which is not only very cool, but also continues the international theme that has taken place recently. (Episodes 2 and 3 were both filmed in England.)
As always when episodes are filming, story details will be kept under wraps, but here are some screen shots from the first night of filming:
