About me: Altera Omega Films was born in the Winter of 06, since that hallowed time (eh give or take 6 months) they have produced 3 trailers and 3 shorts, as well as entered 2 contests. Not too shabby i would say. Back to the backstory...
A child was born in 1981, the doctors said he would be a boy child, and a son of a gun. This young man wanted to be an artist/musician/author/director/and sorcerer. Robert T Jones never figured out which he should become so he chose all. Aided by his sorta kinda Half Brother Ian McDonald, the two rationalized they could infact take the world over. RobzillaInc was born and soon our young Mr Jones was DP on a Documentary in Illinois were he met Bruce Campbell and learned that movies are not that Hard of a thing. A year later after many projects (Zombies in a Grocery Store, A Vienna Film Festival accepted Travelouge of Fenton, and a Ghost movie that unraveled) Mr Jones realized that movies are a quite Hard thing.
Rob decided that he would go digital instead- and began to make 2.5D movies (3d elements with 2d rendered in a between medium). These shorts gained him great acceptance from avant garde folks and Webster U faculty. While making these strange flicks were fun, Rob and Ian desired motion picture magic. Thanks to a surprise trip to Chicago in 06, Robert T Jones met Mark Specht. Mr. Specht provided young Rob and Ian with the means of High Definition Video Cam, as well as Professional Editing Equipment. the 'shit just got real'.
Inbetween that wonderous December and our current timeline, Rob enlisted a Massive Army of Talent, some he found, so found him, some just materialized in thier own magical time, and others had always been with him.
Mark Specht- The Micheal Gambon to our Fontaine. The Organizer and Logical Side of the AOF entity. He weaves his ways subtley and then bam you have an entire lighting kit in your hands, and he's in the basement filing down a Knife while reminding you about what shots you forgot to write down. That's what kind of Producer were talking about.
Jason Wayne Dockery- The pillar, the prophet as it was written. Our Main Script Editor as well as Senior Screenwriter and Co-conciver of Altera Omega's strange ways.
Ian McDonald- (on current assigment in Botswana) If the lion has 2 heads, Ian is the 2nd head of the beast. A writer, A musician, reluctant actor, and the CEO of Interoctier Films
The Girls- Bry Carter, Nicole Waddell, and Lori McLaughlan are our glamourous starlett trio sometimes known as Naughty Garrett or Black Midnight. They speak in a language that no one should understand, and no one thankfully does.
Amanda Jones- A refined lover of Monarchs, Jane Austen, France, Howard and Vince, and History. She is our Makeup artist as well as "The Willow Face" from S.O.R.
Danielle Burke- Actress and Crew for many of the AOF projects, and the only one who knows how to operate a Casting Call and Freeze and unfreeze on command.
Joe Hipperson- Radio DJ for KTRS 550AM. Lucas he likes to be called, he wrote the "Corpus Callosum" script after being handed a list of camera moves. He has appeared in the "RESET" short as Ridley the evil F.AIDE officer. He is also our associate producer.
Christopher Bohler- Newest Member of the Altera Omega family. A filmmaker of his own right as well as screenwriter. He is currently Production Assistant (Corpus and S.O.R.) as well as Secretary of Defense.
