Nealham's Return

The 48 Hour Film Project is upon us again. Team Nealham is back in action after taking last year off. I always find pitching this thing a difficult task because I can't yet tell if the result is something I will actually want you to see. Just in case it is, I would like you to know that our film is expected to screen in Group A - Wednesday, August 10th at 7PM. As usual, the screenings will be held at the beautiful, historic Hollywood Theater. Tickets don't seem to be on sale yet, but keep your eyes on the 48 hour site for more details and I'll probably update you again, too.

P.S. I can't come to the screening. I have to work. Will you please go in my absence and vote for our film so that it gets into the Best Of Portland Screening so that I can see it on the big screen? Thanks!

As a special bonus for reading this post, the three of you get this secret link to a not-very-recent podcast featuring Nealham hanging out with our best friend/nemesis, Rob of Cinema Queso. Did I already show that to you? Sorry.

Mortalized

It's been a long time, right? So many things have happened since the last post, I wouldn't even know where to begin, so let's just start fresh right here. Check out this tattoo someone recently got of an old painting of mine:

Yes, of course I am immensely flattered.

Another 48 Hour Film

Team Nealham is busy with other things this year, so I took my friends at Cinema Queso up on the offer to join with them. This thing starts in about 1 minute, but I wanted to let you know in case you're interested in coming to the premiere screening. Our film will be screening in Group D, Thursday August 12th at 9:30 PM. It's at the Hollywood Theater as always and you can get your tickets here.

First Post of 2010

Since the future is already the past, it is high time I post something new on the site. I've been pretty busy with so many things lately, but what else is new? There is no excuse for neglecting my page.

So here is a slideshow of the progress on my current sculpture project. I've been learning a lot lately and decided to do this piece purely for the practice. I'll write more details about the process after I finish.
