As can be gathered from my last blog, I have decided to share some retro-gems from my earlier years in filmmaking. My last blog had clips from stuff I shot when I was 8. I recently dug through some old boxes containing most of the film work I did in middle school and high school. I thought I might share with you folks some trailers I made for a number of feature-length films I did in high school. All of these trailers (as well as the films) were edited together using VHS-to-VHS editing. That's why the tracking is all jacked-up in certain places.
The first trailer I have is from "Shutting Down Krostockon", a film I made when I was 14 about a group of agents that have to foil a terrorist plot devised by an evil mega-corporation. This film was actually the bench-mark film that influenced "Lavorsia".

The next trailer is from "Road Trip". A film I made when I was 16, nearly a year before the Tom Green garbage of the same name was made. I inner-cut car chase scenes from the film "Ronin" to add to the otherwise semi-lame experience. And yes, Bob Woodblock (political powerhouse/social activist) appears in this film.

The last trailer is from "Operation: Overthrow- The Movie" that I made when I was 17. Why "The Movie"? I made a pseudo T.V. series with some friends back in middle school called "Operation: Overthrow". This was supposed to be like the big feature-film version of the show... that nobody saw. I'm actually writing a big-budget feature script now for "Operation: Overthrow". Bob Woodblock also appears in this film with.... HANDS!

I have a lot more retro trailers, but after reviewing them I have found them to be way too embarassing to share...
