Anhedenia Films 7/2012

Hello!

I am very sorry this is so late. My father who has multiple health issues did a stint in the hospital and then went to a rehabilitation facility to get his strength back. He recently came home and his progress is being monitored by myself as well doctors, nurses, physical therapists, etc.

I am really glad he's home but he did have a very close call. Doing my best to not do everything for him but also doing enough so he knows I am there.

Here is a trailer for my documentary ORANGE COUNTY HARDCORE SCENESTER. This film is a unique look at the Orange County, CA punk/hardcore music scene from 1990-1997. You can watch the trailer here.

You can purchase the DVD/Blu-ray of KNOCKOUT. This is the boxing film that I co-wrote and it stars "Stone Cold" Steve Austin. For the best price I would go to BestBuy.com.

Also, you can order all of my available films via Amazon.com by clicking here.

Finally, if you want to order a copy of my first young adult novel, MY SUMMER OF HATE, you can do so by clicking this link. If you live in Orange County, CA you can also check it out of the library.

In The Writer's Corner...

I finished a longhand version of my newest boxing script LADY AND THE CHAMP. It should be ready to show in about 6-8 weeks. I just need to type it up, add some things and then rewrite it until I feel that it's ready. I am going to show it to NASSER ENTERTAINMENT first and then others after if they don't think they can do anything with it.

I also finished a new script titled LOSING CLEOPATRA. It is a contained, time travel love story. At present I am not sure if it is going to stay with just being this idea... or, if it might be merged with some other ideas for time travel movies that I have outlined.

I have started a new sci-fi/horror script called FALLING APART. More on that when I am further along with it.

Lastly, I finished another script for NASSER ENTERTAINMENT. It is a contained action movie/thriller. Things look like they are moving in a positive direction both with that script and another one they had me write.

ORANGE COUNTY HARDCORE SCENESTER is done. DONE. I am getting it ready for its 9/4/12 release. It is going to be playing in Florida in September. You can read more about that HERE. It will be released by AMAZON as well as REVELATION RECORDS. I am also gonna be pounding the pavement for press notices, as well as an overseas distributor, as well as a television sale of some sort. I am planning to spend a year promoting this thing that ORANGE COUNTY HARDCORE SCENESTER has a life long after the DVD is released this September.

I have finished the my "director's edit" of SHADOW. I literally just turned it into NASSER ENTERTAINMENT. Hopefully they like it. This is clearly the best movie I have directed from a "professional" standpoint. I am looking forward to seeing what happens with it now. I am currently talking to NASSER ENTERTAINMENT about directing another micro budget movie.

I am about to start my assistant editing work on the INSTED documentary. INDECISION RECORDS will be releasing this documentary with all of INSTED's recordings once it is done.


I am also writing my next Young Adult novel titled WARREN. The best part is that I have a publisher who is interested in having me write a YA book for them! This is a dream come true as, when you get right down to it, I am a writer. I have been doing it since I was in the 2nd Grade and thankfully I've never stopped.

It also looks like I will be resuming work on INSECT again. I am really excited about it. This is going to be a long, arduous process. It won't help that it will be animated, edited, scored and completed in a piecemeal fashion... but it will get done.

So far this summer has had its share of ups and downs. As somebody who believes in G-d I figure there's a reason for everything. I am not saying you have to believe in G-d to realize that, I am just saying that that is what works for me.

I trust everything will work out regarding my dad and everything else. It always does.

Best,

Evan Jacobs
