   Steven's Blurbs
About me:



I periodically recreate and reinvent myself. It is currently a time of change for me.

I am a Web producer, filmmaker and entrepreneur. I am a native of Los Angeles, living on the West Side, but equally at home in Hollywood and the Valley. I love movies, music, technology, art, books, politics, travel, magazines and yes... long walks on the beach. I see life as an amazing journey filled sparks of creativity and the synchronicity.

Osbournes Reloaded Countdown Widget

Who I'd like to meet:
I am interested in meeting smart & aware, creative/original people who are passionate and engaged in the world.

It's the passion that makes people interesting. That passion could be for music, movies, art, technology, literature, gardening, politics... just about anything.

I also like to see people improving themselves in some way, whether it is through school, volunteering, or digging themselves out of a hole. I am willing to help those who help themselves.

'The Evading' Official movie page





Mar 13 2009 2:00 AM

Independent filmmaker releasing BLANK worldwide on 3.21.09

The film will be released on DVD for sale worldwide, in a variety of Independent Video Stores, Amazon, Various online stores, streaming online, and on all torrent sites to insure everyone the opportunity to enjoy the film.

The concept behind the torrent sites is that people will watch the movie and if they like the film that they will go to a designated website or the official myspace website and donate or pay what they thought the film was worth to them.

Jack and Jill went in room five to have a bit of fun, the two they
found looked around and realized they had no place to run.
-Jill

A list of sites to see the movie will be posted two days before the release on 3.21.09
