Leadership
Lately I’d been thinking about all the work I’ve been doing toward getting The Precinct happening. It’s kept me very busy, but probably not as busy as I would be if were making the show itself. So I probably need to get used to this level of activity!
I’ve been wondering what kind of director I’d [...]

The Precinct: live on stage

A couple weeks ago we put on what we called a “VERY SPECIAL THEATRICAL EVENT” for a small audience at Glitch.
What this turned out to be was a live reading of one of our Precinct scripts — “Episode 6: Last Drinks”, otherwise known as “the ’80s flashback episode”, in which a young Sarge, Sandhurst and [...]

Precinct ep 06: Blam!

I stopped working on the animatic for the John Farnham episode because I’m doing something special this weekend: myself, Adam and two of our Precinct voice-maestros, Thomas Pullar and Adrian Calear, are going to perform a reading of the episode 6 script for a select audience at a secret location. SO MYSTERIOUS
We’ll be assisted by [...]

Me, on the radio

As I’m featured in the very nice Superheroes & Schlemiels exhibition currently at the Jewish Museum here in Melbourne, they’ve kindly given me the opportunity to appear on ABC 774 this Sunday with the Museum’s Helen Light to talk about… comic books and Jews, probably.
We’ll be on around 10:30am, speaking with Alan Brough, which will [...]

Comic Book Funny: recap

We did another four sessions of COMIC BOOK FUNNY. In week one, Jo Waite, Sarah Howell and our audience enjoyed a bit of low key chat, tea and cucumber sandwiches while they drew pictures of sexy comics men Neale Blanden, Pat Grant and David Blumenstein (me).

Be there if you can, Gerard’s coming all the [...]

A little more about MIPCOM why not?

I’m currently in Toronto, the city with many nicknames. They call it T.O. They call it T-Dawg. They call it T-Ball. I just call it “the city with delicious hot dogs on every street corner”, and bless them for that.
Would probably be better to wait til I can get some pics up or whatever, but [...]

Too many free drinks?

No, I haven’t been indulging in free drinks at MIPCOM. I’ve been eating free food. Reviews of this food will follow one of these days when I have more time at the internet cafe terminal and I don’t have to poo so bad.
MY VERY QUICK MIPCOM REPORT:
1. Not having anything to compare it to, I [...]
