Ah, the internet. So full of incredible treasures you would never know about unless you happen to stumble upon them. Such is the case with the quirky, yet totally awesome, site iwanttodrawacatforyou.com.
Seeing an instant cross-promotional oppotunity, I contacted the site's owner, Steve Gadlin. He agreed to make us our very own, 100% original, sure to become a masterpiece in the Guggenheim, cat drawing. I think it turned out quite beautifully. The attention to detail and realistic expressions of a cat enamored with our website nearly brought tears to my eyes. Looks like our former cat artist, Amanda, has some competition.
South Carolina received a small taste of Snowmagedon 2010 with the Valentine’s weekend snow storm. So I seized the rare opportunity of getting seven inches of southern snow to make my very own Death Cat Snowman.
Sadly, he is now a slushy lump of grass and leaves, but I am sure he will be back again someday… thumpetty thump thump, thumpetty thump thump, look at Death Cat go!
Things are coming along great with "Saying Goodbye." We're in the middle of editing now and should have that done by the end of the month. Then it's on to music and finally the big premiere!
A lot of people have been asking us what's the best way to stay on top of everything that's happening with "Saying Goodbye." Our answer is always: "Become a Facebook Fan."
We've set up this blog so that every time we make a new entry it automatically posts an alert to our Facebook Fan page. If you become a fan, you will be notified when something new and newsworthy happens to "Saying Goodbye."
We plan to premiere the movie around the beginning of the year, and then it's off to the festivals, so become a Facebook Fan today and never miss a beat! Tell your friends to become fans too. Together we can start building the all important BUZZ for "Saying Goodbye."
Just got off the phone with Richard (our casting director). He's about to start making calls in search of our young leading lady Kathy--the bubbly nurse who wears her heart on her sleeve.
Richard asked us to rank our wish-list actresses in order of our preference. He'll start at the top and keep going down the list until he gets a "yes." The tricky thing is because of our budget, when he contacts the actress's people he is basically offering her the job. So if she says "yes" there are no auditions, no read-throughs and no take-backs. Which is a little scary.
Everyone on our list is a VERY talented actress, but we have not seen most of them in a role that requires a wide range of emotions and real tears. So what if we love her, she says yes, and we're all excited, only to find out on the set that she can't cry to save her life. Or what if she gets all red, puffy and gross with snot running out of her nose... we did not budget for a snot wrangler!
Hopefully one of our top choices will say "yes," and we'll get someone who is both a great actress and a beautiful crier.
Today is my birthday, and look at this GREAT card the folks at Genesis made for me. I think it would make a fun movie poster. FYI: The inside of the card says "To have a happy and safe birthday". See, Death Cat ain't that bad!

I bet the mailman, er, mailwom--, I mean mailperson was nervous today delivering the first piece of mail to Death Cat. Hope they don’t call PETA.
