Jazz and Blues goes to Washington DC

Finally I'm turning the footage over to my editor extraordinaire Virginia Quesada of Q Media in Washington DC. Fed Ex will hand deliver 110 masters including dozens of interviews with some of our greatest jazz and blues folks of our times. Wish me luck! She and I have worked together in the past on my homeless film. We have a wonderful working relationship. It will take the entire summer to finish our post production and I hope to have a piece for viewing this August! 2 1/2 years of work and it's nearing its birth! Stay tuned. ...

Also the My Power of One PROJECT continues to ramp up. The launch is less than 4 months away. The calendar and route is being created by a planning committee. Victoria Bates is the executive director of My Power of One. She is the current President of Kansas City Women in Film & TV. Watch for ordinary people, like me, taking on an extraordinary feat for the better part of the next year. My crew and I will unearth some of the most inspired stories in our nation and bring them to you via our web site and other platforms.  Visit us at mypowerofone.org to stay in touch. And as I always say 'bring a friend'.

Happy New Year

Ok, so just home from London for a family vacation I am ready to make 2009 an exceptional year! I have sold out my interest in the animation project The French Fry Family. I am writing the script for the Kansas City Jazz and Blues; Past, Present and Future documentary. Post production should take through the Spring and then a film premiere will be scheduled. The My Power of One project is under way as well. I will actively look for an investing partner so that the launch of these projects will have a financial cushion. It's likely to be an amazing year!

Pilgrimage

So I was discussing recently with a friend this idea of taking a pilgrimage across Spain. It turns out that my pilgrimage might very well be right here in the United States. Beginning September 11, 2009 I plan to go on the road across our nation to begin the journey of My Power of One. I will launch a web site www.mypowerofone.org in the next few months so that you can follow that journey. Please feel free to join this national effort for $1.00. It will benefit future start up projects beginning in 2010.
