  • Allucinari Website is Live!

    Friday, May 13, 2011 5:59AM / Standard Entry


    It's been a while since I've posted.  The reason is that I've been working non stop.  This has been going on for years, but it reached a point I simply could not do anything but finish projects.

    However, we just finished a few major projects and are just about to start a few more, so I thought now would be a good time to actually collect some of our work share a larger perspective of what it is that I do.

    Realistically this is only like 20% of the stuff we've done in the last handful of years, but collecting all of it was going to be too big of a job (and I didn't think anyone would really spend the hours and hours it would take to watch it all), so I had to just limit it to what is here.

    i hope you enjoy it!




    Allucinari is my production company.  We are primarily a production company, but in reality - we can and do create any type of audio visual presentation.

  • Story by John August

    Thursday, Dec 30, 2010 9:07PM / Standard Entry / writing

    Very short blog.

    I was reading an old blog post of writer John August and he was complaining that so many of the independent scripts he reads are not taking advantage of a free production value - a good story. The line which I thought was well put was this. 

    "And while Sex, Lies and Videotape might seem low-plot, the story keeps forcing characters to make choices and face the consequences."

    What I like about this comment is how story (and drama) is separated out from the  requirement of plot and how simple it becomes.   People facing challenges, making difficult choices.
