    New Post on the Tumblr!

    Read the ful post here. Excerpt: “Well folks, its been 2 years since we started on this journey together. Sorry I’ve been so quiet, but I honestly ran out of ideas on how to update you and keep it interesting for so long! Progress has been slow, but it is still very much actively happening and taking up all my free time. I am still energized by Lake Beast, and although the story has evolved over time, there have been surprisingly very few rewrites. A difficulty in projects that drag on this long is that you end up reshaping it to suit whatever your changing tastes of the moment are and it becomes a jumbled mess. Or you try to turn it into the end-all-be-all greatest thing ever and keep changing and/or adding to it. I can thankfully report that has not happened. Its still the same film I pitched to you 2 years ago.”

    Read the rest!

    My Final Title Choice + An Art/Video Update

    Tile choice: Lake Beast

    Sometimes the first idea is the better idea! Thanks for giving your input and help with this. I think for simplicity's sake this title is better, and as a friend pointed out it leaves more room for your imagination to breathe.

    I've been using a site called dribbble to post small art updates as I work on the film, and you can check that out here!

    Also, I recently painted some concept art and recorded it. You may or may not have already seen this but here ya go! Take Care!

    Thanks for the input guys. I'm leaning pretty heavily towards Lake Beast... @mariaaj - Yeah I like that too, but its the name of an existing short by David O'Reilly... http://motionographer.com/2010/01/18/david-oreilly-jon-klassen-black-lake/

        Lake Beast. The other one is a tongue twister. Imagine telling a friend about the film. "Hey I saw this great film, you should check it out. It's called... um... Beast of Lake Black, or maybe Black Lake of the East, no, Black Beast Lake, or maybe East of Lake Beast...?
