So much to say... Been so busy lately with the chaos of preproduction... Let's first throw out some props:

Jefferson Arca became the first actor cast in our film. Jefferson rocks. Check out www.jeffersonarca.com

The second official casting was Catherine Sheehan in the role of Emily, the wife. Catherine completely rocks. Check out www.catherinesheehan.com

More casting news to come very very soon.

And, for the first time, I am now officially recognized in the industry. Check out http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1871694/ and see me! Thanks to Mr. Kelsey for getting all the Spotless stuff up. If you have a chance, vote for Spotless. The more votes we get, the better the publicity on the film will be, the more money Steve makes.

There's a backend to imdb called imdbpro and it has a "Starmeter." The Starmeter has some secret formula that ranks all of the people in the imdb database based on pr/searches/films and other proprietary stuff. Right out of the gate, I was ranked 907,119th. Out of everyone in the film industry, ever, I was the 907,119th biggest star. In a week, however, imdb recognized the true power of my rising star, and my current rank is 132,270th. Quite an impressive rise for just one week. So if you're bored, check out imdb and search for me. It will make me a bigger star. My goal is to break the top 100,000 by the end of the year.

On a side note, if you're an actor who has actually done some film work, be sure to get your contact/project info on imdb. Every resume/headshot we see that we have a vague interest in, we imdb. If your credits are fake, we will find out. If your roles are inflated, we will find out. There is no escaping here.
