My film got bought by MTV/Logo

[dmw007]

Ok guys- anybody remember that series of short films I was in last fall? The horror films where I agonized over my performance? Well, one of the shorts was bought by MTV to show on Logo. They saw it at a festival in NYC and bought the thing! I'm really happy! Here's a link, but there's not much info yet. Scroll down to "Perfect Filtration". No cast list is posted yet either, you just have to take my word for it. BTW- I'm quite scary in this one. http://www.splitpillow.com/newsletter0606.html

P.S. I'll let you guys know when it airs as soon as I know. It should be sometime in the fall.

Very cool leekohler! I am very happy for you- congratulations.

You guys, its not going to be on MTV. Logo is just owned by MTV Networks (well viacom even). So yeah, no need to worry if you hate MTV. Logo is actually an LGBT interest channel. They show quite a bit of short films actually. Just an FYI for those of you saying "Good thing you didnt make a music video as MTV wouldnt show it."

Thanks- I should've made that more clear!

Haha, I think you made that clear.

Wait, you mean the ones on his face, right?

looks closely at my last message .

OK, I'm late with this but- here's a link to the film on the Logo website:

I'm in a black mask most of the time. It comes off toward the end after I've done some damage. Just so you guys know, I'm the killer in the film.

It also aired on the Click List on November 21. But I got the info too late. It should be showing again though.

It's the 7th most watch video . Nice!

I can't watch it though. I've seen most of it already from Lee, but I'd like to see what I missed.

If anyone has success in getting it to play, let me know. It says something about an incorrect file name, directory, or incorrect time syntax.

Same, can't get it to play. Tried in WMP 9:Mac and Flip4Mac. No luck. "Syntax Error" or whatever.

From the logo website:

Why can't I play Logoonline videos on my Mac?

Logo uses Windows Digital Rights Management (DRM) to protect videos from unauthorized re-distribution. Unfortunately, Microsoft's Windows Media Player Plug-in for Macintosh does not support Windows DRM. If DRM support becomes available for Macintosh, Logo will develop a version of the video player that works on a Mac.

Belated but very hearty congratulations! You are Da Man!

I'm working on a horror movie myself. "Rose Mary Cheney's Baby". It's a remake of an old film starring Mia Farrow.

Thanks to my trusty XP laptop I can say congratulations and I'd never eat at your place. You never know.

Haha! Thanks! I usually cook the meat first though. This was a special occasion.

Congrats!
Though it's a shame it can't be played by most of us Mac users.
If you ever have a Mac-viewable link of the movie to share with us, please let us know!

That title's genius.

Oh dammit to hell. Sorry guys!

Congrats on the film and exposure Lee! Really great when someone you like and respect gets to do something they really like!

Your next task..

In costume, drive out to Redmond and pressure Microsoft to fix it's broken DRM. Take extreme measures if necessary

Oh don't worry- I'm doing an indie feature next (with plenty of nastiness) that'll probably only be on the film fest circuit. We start workshopping sometime early in the new year. Calm yourself, my young idealist.

Won't I spontaneously combust if I get too close to Microsoft?

Define "nastiness"

Define "nastiness"

Nudity and violence. Good enough?

Did the killer know those two were the ones that t-papered his house, or was he motivated by the peeking window incident? Couldn't stop thinking about the short as I lay in bed, but I guess that's what I get for watching it just before turning in.

I would say the peeping incident. He couldn't have actually known that those two did the TPing. But I'm sure the TPing didn't make him happy.

What more can one ask for?
