Last week I produced a video with the online division of Fremantle (the company behind American Idol) for Super Tuesday. We came up with the idea and shot it in a day - so definitely my most guerilla viral video ever. Special thanks to Stevie Ryan, YouTube's littleloca and host of CW's Online Nation, and Jessica Rose, the original lonelygirl15 and regular on ABC Family's GREEK, who star in the video as well. Hopefully we'll have more for you soon!
Attending the Ft. Lauderdale International Film Festival, where I'll be there to celebrate Hott 4 Hill and the premiere of Senior Skip Day, a teen comedy I shot last year! Check out www.flff.com for tickets and show times.

The early morning stroll... took its toll... on my soul... today... 4 some strange reason I kind a lost my way. for moments, for minutes , maybe hours.. I was lost in the cosmic shower...
I saw a withered leaf fall and get blown away.. it kind a felt as if it's lost its way.. in the early morning chill... call it what U will... I call it a Winter kill.. The breeze wasn't kind... it left me watery eyed and almost blind... what was I looking 4 ? what was I trying 2 find... in a world of seasons there is a chain.. Some things die some remain..
I saw the leaves make the journey 2 and fro.. Where ever they went... was that where they were meant 2 go..? I don't think so..
So it is with People.. drifting in Life’s Hurricanes and Breezes... life takes us where it Pleases.. R we like leaves in a flowing river searching 4 shores...? always opening and closing doors.. Is Eternity longer than Forevermore.. I'm not that sure.. R We What We R because of Destiny and Fate...? some life’s with Blessings 2 waste some holding empty plates.. Ahhhh..it can B a long wait..
Have U noticed we never go far...? a little like the closeness of a cut and the scar.. The falling leaves all swirl back under the Mother Tree.. Asking the Mother,"IS this my Destiny?" oh how the time flies... one moment of Summer Skies the next moment the Blossom dies.. C 4 YOURSELF I TELL U NO LIES.. SIEZE THE MOMENT....BEFORE IT 2 DIES... SAY ALL YOUR HELLOS BEFORE THE GOODBYES
