I shot a very short, odd scene where I guy’s cellphone explodes and plumes of green smoke rise into the air.
The Synthetic Man: Day 4
I started out the day putting the finishing touches on the cavernous video “lair” of this character named John played by, well, myself … Everyone’s spirits were up but was just way too hot to shoot the scene in tin shed with no air conditioning. Also, I look like a 15-year-old in the scene.

I’m currently in the process of casting and I’ve also […]
Report from the “Gone With The Pope” Premiere
The world premiere of Duke Mitchell’s long-unfinished Gone With The Pope took place last night at The Egyptian Theatre in Los Angeles – an event that’s been over 30 years in the making since the film was originally shot and nearly 15 years since Grindhouse Releasing’s extensive restoration on it began.
