Tracy Trailer Revised 2009

The Tracy Trailer was cut in 2006, and as I get the movie ready to enter into festivals I've updated the original cut of the trailer to feature final shots, as well as just tightening the cut over all ( I also added a bunch of C.G. monsters and shit) . It's likely you won't notice much difference though there are completely NEW shots added in, see if you can find them!

"At least we haven't gotten to the lemming statue yet."






Here's the left overs...

At least I can feel superior to this one.

On the positive side it’s crapping a golden egg.

At least they’ll be much smaller statues of poo all over the street.

Sorry, it took me so long, I fell down the stairs.

Okay now it’s my turn to try.

Yeah, this stuff doesn’t work.

Twenty five for me one for you.

I’m still learning the taking them out part of this.

Life After Tracy

Tracy may be done, but there is still lots to do as far as getting DVDs made, and entering them in film festivals, but the nice thing is I do find that I have more time to hang out with Michele and Carol, write more, and even do a little painting. This is a painting I've owed a friend for quite awhile that I did last weekend.

Here's the color mock up and line drawing on canvas.

Tracy DVD Cover

Here is the image made for the short run of Tracy screener DVDs that we're making for festivals entries and other promotion. We'll probably only make a run of about 75 or less of these DVDs. This will likely not be the final image for the films poster or final DVD, but I think it does a good job for this.

What do you think? Does it make sense? Would you want to watch this film?

This was much more whimsical earlier in the week, when they were all still alive.

You think it’s bad for the fish, wait ‘til you hear the piano.

Hey everybody, how many rotting fish does it take to keep people from leaning on my piano?

Can you believe the stuff people throw out these days?
