The Crisis (2011) Completed

2012-05-05T09:08:36Z

While a rough cut has been hanging around since last autumn, I have just completed my final cut of The Crisis, my second directorial effort. While LRC is a lot of fun as being essentially a fantasy film with elements of comedy, The Crisis is definitely a better indicator of where I am headed as [...]

Yes kids, it’s the Phi Theta Kappa logo. For those of you not in the know, PTK is an honors society for students attending two year colleges. Membership is open to anyone with at least a 3.5 GPA, and eighty bucks. If you haven’t yet guessed, I am now a member after receiving an invitation [...]

Sad Little People

2012-04-13T06:48:44Z

Vanessa Miller of Perry, Arkansas is an incredibly unremarkable waste of carbon molecules who will never be known for accomplishing anything of note in the course of her so-called life. She lives a decidedly mundane and willfully ignorant existence with her decidedly mundane and willfully ignorant family and friends, and together they engage in decidedly mundane [...]

Through The Past Darkly

2012-04-12T08:12:57Z

This is a photo of me from approximately ten years ago. I’m in the early days of my devotion to fitness and nutrition, and while I still had so much to learn, I was already on my way. My athletic build, combined with my jet black hair and sideburns, caused me to bear something of [...]

Discothèque Redux

2012-04-05T08:20:05Z

It’s hard to admit when a project simply isn’t working, and that it’s time to cut bait and move. The more time and effort one puts into it only serves to make such a revelation, and subsequent abortion of said project, that much more difficult. Having worked sporadically on the screenplay for Discothèque for just over approximately one [...]

Fashionable Lateness

2012-03-10T06:58:54Z

To this point in 2012, I have been completely nonexistent as a blogger. It’s not that I haven’t been incredibly busy (which I have), but most everything I’ve done so far this year has amounted to preparation for bigger and better things to begin coming in the very near future. As I have to complete [...]

Discothèque (Announced)

2012-03-10T04:35:35Z

As yet another year winds to a conclusion, I’m choosing to end it with a bang (at least, for me) by announcing Studio Nouveauté‘s production of Discothèque in 2012. This feature-length film (with an estimated running time of approximately 90 minutes) is an ultra-stylish mix of suspense, drama, and action as various parties chase after the score [...]

2012 Previewed

2012-04-12T23:54:43Z

As the new year quickly approaches, I’ve been hard at work getting myself positioned for new and exciting advancements, personally and professionally. Many of my so-called resolutions are currently being documented on Stefan After Dark, including my aspirations for music, film, and photography. In short, I have some serious aspirations for 2012, especially after spending [...]

Bombs Away! (2011) Acting Performance

2012-04-04T02:18:45Z

I’ve always been quick to state that the prospect of acting has never been a significant passion of mine, but following my “strong, silent type” cameo in
