Blaze Barnation: "So Gone" video!!

Hey fans,

I'm back from my break and I have stuck to my promise, Mathu Ezee just handed me a link on my wall for you guys. It's a music video by a rapper who goes by the name Brice or Blaze. At one point before filming took place, I wondered if it would of been cool if he did have a catchy name we could say that "Yeah, we know him". I thought of the name "Blaze, I Got Bars!", something alliterate that made the rapper Soulja Boy add "Tell 'Em" to his graff. It sounds kind of good though, but I'll stick with just Blaze for now. The whole shoot took place at night and it was really late, didn't get in till early in the morning, but it was sick. The models were great to be with too and Brice was good to chat with. His lyrics are very addictive plus the whole location fits the picture. It was pretty mad though, man I won't even tell you what happened up there.

He's the sort of person I would like to work alongside with once all my projects are done and out of the way. The holidays have been so quick and already I feel I haven't done much. I go back to college next week, but this doesn't change anything. I will still be uploading heavy videos like this one and continuing the two main projects this September. I'm going to add some more stuff on my blog including new features such as The Site and Bios page. Those pages are being sorted out as we speak, I may add some flash animation and more pictures for the Bios as well. Anyway, I hope you lot had a bless summer time and now is really the time to get to work. I still got more work to do and have got loads in store for you this autumn. You will just have to wait and see. Stay tuned for more exciting stuff this week and the next, it will be something you deserve to get.

See yah

New Features!!

I have made some new features on this site, but at the moment it is under construction. I will upload more pictures on the Bios section and install some videos in order to get to know the characters pretty well. Read all the descriptions on that section to get a good idea of who they really are? Mathu Ezee and J-Staarz have been working on Brice's video, I have not got any confirmation yet that it is done, but when they upload it on my page, I will show it to you. Otherwise, I'm going to be out for a few days just chilling. I will come back very soon with more stuff.

What is Aggro?!

Hey fans,

I have some good news for you, the storyboards I am doing for Aggro have been finished and I am working on the series third episode. My partners are working on the storyboards I have sent them on software. It won't be long before the creative directors at Pulp Theatre Entertainment can hire voice actors for the recordings and release a viral marketing campaign for you guys. Check out the site anytime, there is a link to it you can find on the links page or you can go on these web addresess http://www.pulptheatre.com/ or all of you could really check out the comic book for Alien Ink they have on http://www.alienink.co.uk/. I will be getting back to work on it some time, but I am working on something extra special for you guys who are into the Nemesis web comics I posted on this blog. No, it's not just the cover art for issue 1 and 2 that I will be doing, but something else as a little treat. One of them I will reveal but the next I won't until the end of the year. The first souvenir is a chance to get to know all of the characters that you have read so far in the scripts. That is what I have been working on for quite awhile now and should be up there as soon as I get the other cover art done. The next issue of Nemesis Dawn of a Legend, issue 7, will be released on the 17th September and the 8th issue will be published on the 24th of that month. They will be up there sometime in the afternoon.

The other day was pretty good, bar the rain, I got in touch with Jstaarz and Mathu Ezee on a music video they did and I took part on their shoot and it was really great. It features artist Brice who does rap, he reps for the UK, but he was originally from Canada. He's a really good person and can give you a good laugh as well and is laidback. Hopefully, I can get the music video uploaded here real soon, I think it is currently being edited but I helped out with the filming too as well as lighting. Speaking of which, the auditions for The Hardest to Survive film is still going on, two actors have now been hired for the leading roles so far, but there is still room for more actors and actresses available to attend these sessions. I will let you know when the next set of auditions will take place in a couple weeks, but I hope to start filming and principal photography in two or so more months time. I am pleased with the newest addition to the crew, he is very bright, enthusiastic and helpful as part of the cast and crew. I am confident he does have the key to fit the bigger picture. That is it for today, I wish all of you the best this term. I will be back for more news, videos, music, talents, interviews and commentary definitely this weekend.


See yah later,

Episode Six: Criminal Minds.

Hey fans,

This is me again to present some more web stories of Nemesis Dawn of a Legend in this latest sixth issue. Last issue on the "A Blank Slate" saga, Henry Jackson found himself attacked by forces who are strangely after him. If you were listening carefully about two issues back you would have been given hints as to what for. Well apparently, his father has been mixed up in a large mess in his assassin days and he may have paid the price. Now they have come to claim his son, but what for? And why did I draw out a guy in a Kevlar suit with a gun on the front cover? Well just have a read on the link below and you may find out. I will post some more cover art for issue 1 and 2 as well but I am busy with a lot of other stuff in the meantime. I should have the two covers done by either next week or the week after. It depends on my schedule as I can be a very busy man, but I promise I will get them done for you lot soon enough. On the weekend or Monday I may post up a video that the rest of the Go Wonders! team are doing so I can give you a little treat with that.


Anyway, I'm off.


See you later,

What's New?!

Hey fans,

This is your entertainer, Lil Dre, coming back with some more stuff. I am trying to sort out the next audition for my short film and I'm just going to have to wait until they get back to me. I just came to give you a synopsis of Nemesis Dawn of a Legend#6, coming out this Friday. I am going to start the art for that pretty soon, but the story is sorted. I hope you all like #5 though as this is when things really start to pick up. In this issue you found Henry under attack by assassins who were after him and his own uncle getting caught in the crossfire. Wait till the next issue, though, you'll be shocked.

Anyway, this is not just what I came here to discuss about. It's about some animation I'm doing for a media studio. As I said to you last time, I'm working on something called Aggro, I am not going to spoil anything for you but I will tell you the basic idea around it. I am working for some really good people at the publishing house and we are trying to bring to you some really cool stuff. At the moment, we are sorting out the animators. You can expect separate parts of the plots put together in one storyline and this will be a teenage drama. I'm not given anything else, you just have to wait.



Nemesis Dawn of a Legend#6




A Blank Slate part 2 of 6: Criminal Minds


"After the raid in his own home, Henry immerses himself in the world of murder and deception, he intends to put his whole powers to the test. In response to it, he prepares to don the mantle of his father's alias, "The Shadow Man", a legendary warrior of New York. To do this, he is willing to do anything in order to get his revenge. Now that he has learned about his origins he now has an understanding of what he is capable of and that within his genes holds a crave, "Berserker Instinct", a sense which ties with all of his amazing feats, but with both good and bad aspects. The search for the other assassins continues with the second part of "A Blank Slate". Can he overcome the temptations his powers bring him or totally lose himself?"


Later everyone,

Episode Five: The New Threat.

Hey people,


I have the beginning of a brand new story arc called "A Blank Slate" part 1 of 6 and check out the cover art in Nemesis Dawn of a Legend#5 with the title of the episode being "The New Threat". Last time, Henry Jackson confronted his uncle, Phillip, back home in New York after his best friend, Raphael Hagen escorted him back to his residence from Sao Paulo, Brazil. Phillip mentioned to his nephew his brother was a professional assassin going by the alias, the Shadow Man, who affiliated with a thousand years old secret society known only as The Commission. After filling him in about this discovery, Henry told him about his extraordinary powers and abilities, which implies he may have inherited them from his father. In the meantime, two assassins observe them and target the two under a snipe gun. A government agent hides and watches to stop them, but is pulled back from his duty by his superior. This is what happened last time in "The Forthcoming" saga. Now the second chapter starts. The link to the script is below.

The Hardest to Survive auditions

Yesterday was a long day as I had many actors/actresses coming to me for auditions on my short film I am making this summer, some have been off, few have convinced me to give them the role and only one in particular have been good enough to be an addition to the crew. It has been all well, I'm really liking how things are turning out so far. Apart from that, behind the scenes have started going to that up and down trend with the creativity of my work. Don't worry people, I will make sure that this will be one of the best crime film's this year and will turn out better than your expectations. I will do another audition in the next few weeks, I will try book that later at the moment we are still trying to find actors who can fill the part of the leading roles. I will do cameos at some other date, but the promotion is getting sorted but I still got more things to sort before we hit production. I will reveal who is chosen for the roles soon, as some could not make the first audition.

Nemesis Dawn of a Legend#5 will be posted up on this blog tommorow sometime in the evening or afternoon. The script have been finished and is ready, plus the cover art is finished being inked and ready for digital colouring. There will be a synopsis for issue 6 two days before the launch date on the 20th August 2010 and I will try get out #1 and #2 as cover art after #6 has been released. Thumbnails for them have been completed but the finished pencils have not been done yet. As for the T-shirts, I am trying to get all of them sorted out. Kbon is working on another review, this time, this is for the Predators film and it should not be long before he will post the review on his blog pretty soon on http://www.kbonreviews.blogspot.com/. The animation I am working on is called Aggro and that's all I'm going to tell you about it. At the moment we have started doing the animatics for it, but I will let you know more from this sooner than you think.


See yah,

It's a new day!!

Yes it's a new day,

A few of you have engaged in the roles that will be shown in my short film, The Hardest to Survive, but there maybe another seperate audition that can take place in the next few weeks. The first audition is about to happen on Wednesday 11th August 2010. I will let you know how the auditions went and when the next one is. I told you about some animation I'm working on last time and I've half done the storyboards for that for the first episode, but let me tell you this: storyboards for animation is different to storyboards for live action. I won't get into the details, but it's hard work cause your dealing with creating a world your characters live in.

I just did re-writes for the scripts of the Nemesis Dawn of a Legend comic and did thumbnails for the first two issues of cover art for #1,#2 and did issue 5 and 6. I will start pencilling and inking my latest ones for you, which is going to be released on 13th and 20th August. Don't forget, the promotions of both my film and comic are still going up, Jstaarz and Mathu Ezee are sorting out all the printing of the T-Shirts as we speak and discussed selling them online. I will let you know more about how it's going later, but remember the four steps I told you in order to get them. Anyway, as I said before let me know what you like about them and just stay tuned for the comic books I put out and the merchandise. Kbon might be doing a review on his site for that Predators film remake or the Prototype game, so go check that out on http://www.kbonreviews.blogspot.com/. I'll be back soon.


See yah,

Concept for Main Title...




Hey fans,

This is me again and it's now the start of August. Last week I sent out a casting call for actors to be part of the most anticipated film of all time and it is coming along fine, I just finished searching the locations for The Hardest to Survive and now it's just down to auditions. So far, we have found a few actors and actresses who could play the roles of the main characters (see Casting Call for Film) but the spaces are still open for any volunteers with some drama experience. Anyway, at that time, I was busy on the computer at my work place in the production office doing work for some creative directors on some animation in storyboards, which I still got to do (sighs). While I did that, I began working on a good title for my short film and here's the logo for it above, it's not the final version and I still got more work to do but I thought I might as well share it with you.

I just finished the script for Nemesis Dawn of a Legend#5 and I am about to do #6, in the meantime, the covers for issue 1 and 2 will be put up on this blog very soon. I will start doing rough sketches of them and probably release them before or after the upcoming issues come out. Have a good read out of the comic and I do feel I am learning as I go along so don't worry I only do what's best for the audience. I got a treat for everyone in the next couple weeks but I won't tell you what it is just stay tuned in order to find out. I will let you in on a clue, it does have something to do with Nemesis, but that's really it. You will just have to find out for yourself. As for the animation I am working on just check out Pulp Theatre Entertainment and their Pressure Comics brand for Channel 4, it's got something to do with that and at the moment, it's in pre-production. I'll tell you more about it later. Check out the link for Alien Ink as well on my links page.

Remember, the audition for The Hardest to Survive is on August 11th just follow the steps I said in my last couple blogs and you should be fine. It takes place at this address in the Albany in Deptford, Douglas Way, London SE8 4AG. Keep blogging and follow me on the sweepstakes that I put out every week. I will also let you know how the auditions for those who just want to sit back and watch the show. That won't be for awhile, but I'll let you know.

See yah.
