Anhedenia Films News 11/2012



Hello!!

The scene above is from my new, animated, horror film titled INSECT. It is truly surreal to be making a film about death, loss, and rebirth while I am actually going through what the character in the movie is going through! More on that below...

My documentary ORANGE COUNTY HARDCORE SCENESTER is now available! You can order it here.

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 recently turned in a new screenplay to Nasser Entertainment. It is currently going through the rewrite process and in that process became something a bit more interesting. I was always so scared of "writing by committee." While I believe that some projects are immune to that process and better off having a singular voice, there are others that certainly benefit. That seems to have been the case here.


I was hit a burst of inspiration regarding script outlines. So, I took some time and just focused on fine-tuning them. I am about to resume the business of typing up/rewriting my new boxing script, LADY AND THE CHAMP. In the process, I also came up with some ideas for even more projects.

SHADOW is in the process of being rewritten as it looks like we are going to do some reshoots.
 

My young adult novel titled THE NORMAL BROTHER (which I am writing for Saddleback Educational Publishing), was approved in the outline phase. I then set about writing and the first draft should be done and turned in by the middle of the month. I am really excited about this because it is the first book I have written that has a publisher behind it.
 

INSECT is coming along very slowly. I am taking my time getting into my groove and once that happens everything will come together. The script is 94 pages. I have broken it up into 3 chunks of 30 pages or so, just so the task of animating it isn't so daunting.

Thank you to everybody for their kind wishes regarding my father passing away. I am somebody who has always tried to keep his life simple because my main focus was being creative. I now have new responsibilities that, for the time being, are sort of encroaching on that time. 


Thankfully, I am someone with good time management skills. 

Eventually, I will get all of my dad's affairs in order and behind me. I will also most likely be in a new living situation. As long as I keep working hard, taking care of myself and, most importantly, believing in myself... everything will be fine.

See you next month,

Evan Jacobs
