Over the course of this film’s journey from idea to execution, I’ve mentioned several times the issues the film attempts to touch upon, take on, and finally, leave open to interpretation.  I have not always been exactly clear about what these issues are, and some of you have taken me to task to explain what [...]

“Dreams Awake” just begins the journey … one only you can finish for yourself When this film was originally conceived it was conceived as more than just a film.  I know I’ve mentioned this before, and a few of you have asked me what I specifically mean.  I’ve tried to get into that a bit, [...]

I want to offer some news about our film’s release, but I also would like to qualify where our position is in relation to the state of the film industry today.

“And those who were seen dancing were thought to be insane by those who could not hear the music.” — Frederick Nietsche I wanted to let you know about a new website that a friend of mine just put up – http://theoraclestar.com.  She has some similar spiritual interests that I do, so I thought I’d [...]

Yes, no matter what I or anyone else has to say about the film, in the end … it is all about YOU. There is no other way for it to be.  It’s not about me, or any of the others involved in making the film, or getting it out to you. We all got [...]

Just checking in over this holiday to update you on a few things going on with the film … Trailers — we’re working on a couple more trailers to tantalize your appetite while waiting for the film, as well starting up a viral campaign to spread across the web … Posters — we have one [...]

I am here today to announce the launching of our new website for “Dreams Awake.”  Obviously, since you’re here, you’ve already found it.  Not only is this the new site for our film, but I’ve also migrated my long-running blog (Indie Film Blog) here.  Those of you who have been following me there probably know [...]
