Takeshi's Blurbs |
About me:
I am a film and video producer and dabble in a bit of music.
I am currently working at Gamespot, one of the greatest websites of all time. I go all over the freaking planet to interview videogame developers and cover videogame conventions. Can it really get any better then this? Well for me? Right now? Hell no. For a hardcore gamer like me, it's a great place to work. I love to edit but now I've been given this golden chance to kick up my production chops as well as edit. We basically gotta be 1 man production crews when we're on the road. When we're in the studio, we all have our roles and we work together to make the shows we produce look the best it can. It's really exactly what I've been wanting to do so now I gotta blow shit up. This past year was a blast. My job really just kicked up with E3 where we spent a week in LA. With all the console launches it was off to Germany to cover the Games Convention, the largest videogame convention in Europe, Japan twice, for Tokyo Game Show and the PS3 launch, and Vegas like 3 times! yikes! Punishingly hard work sometimes but for the cool shit you get to do, it's all worth it... so far at least. I can't wait to see what the next year will bring.

Watch the brand new trailer for ORIGIN.
..>
ORIGIN is going really well. We've got a new VFX Director, Lou, and VFX Supervisor, Josh, that has really stepped post production into high gear. With the help of our trusty assistant Sally, we will be charging full steam ahead in the coming months. Right now, our trusty VFX command team will rangle our army of visual effects artists to start cranking out some beautiful shots. ORIGINhas been my blood, sweat, and tears for the past 2 years. We are trying to make a Hollywood calibur action movie on a budget that's next to nothing. It's incredible what you can do with a bunch of talented people and a really good story. Please check out the website and the Director's Blog.

We've also made a music video which features a song from the film.
Please help us out if you can.
ORIGIN now has it's very own Myspace. The trailler can now be viewed there. Myspacers, please help us out by getting the word out. Tell everyone you know. Talk about it in your blog. Put a link on your site. We really want to start people buzzing about this film before it comes out. Thanks!

Who I'd like to meet:
YOU! Yes, you. Like what I'm into? I'm probably down with what you're doing too. Hit me up. Show me what you're working on. I just want to increase my circle of friends so when that next big project comes along, I have people I can bring along to make it happen.
