Cinema Crazed - “Honey, I’m Home” is different and original, and it kicked my ass.

..

We must thank our man, Felix Vasquez, Jr. at Cinema Crazed for his diligence and professionalism. Not only did he provide us a little early press coverage (We Go Inside Honey I'm Home) on our latest film last week, he has now provided us with an amazing review!!!

Here is a little taste of what he wrote...

"The script here is clever, and it's one that I hope sports an award or two at festivals because originality is very hard to come by, even with Indie films."

Here is the link to the review - Cinema Crazed Reviews "Honey, I'm Home"

Emerging Artist's - Jordan Allen to perform at Kulak's Woodshed on July 26th!

Hello everyone...

We are performing at Kulak's Woodshed! It is a live acoustic music, singer songwriter listening room and pioneering multi-camera webcast recording studio. A Labor of Love created by Paul Kulak in November, 1999 operated by volunteers and funded by audience donations.

They serve no food or alcohol. The artists who perform there range from emerging independent talents to number one hit writers and Grammy winners.

It has a "living room" feel and is perfect to sit and listen to music. Coffee and tea is available ($1 donation) and parking is an absolute cinch.

I will be joined by some really talented musicians on this night, and I cannot express how magnificent this venue really is for all of us.

*Suggested donation is $5...this goes completely to support the work that Kulak's Woodshed does for independent musicians.

We hope you will join us...

Sincerely,

Jordan Allen, Kenwood Anderson, Keith Eaddy, Nancy Lawrence and
Jim Burt

Jacob Magnuson Receives Magnificent Review!!!

Forgive us if this is a little bit dated, but we have just come across this review.

Jacob Magnuson, star of "Honey, I'm Home" is also coming off his role as "Ed" in the theater production of Joe Salazar's "Free Bird" which concluded in May.

Debi Hall of Notes From Hollywood had this to say of Jacob.

"And where did he find Jacob Magnuson? What a diamond in the rough this superstar was!"

and she goes into more detail...

"Jacob Magnuson was stunning as Ed. He created relationships with the other characters that superceded a suspension of disbelief. It was clear to everyone in the audience that he was deeply committed to this role and performed it with heart and integrity. I believed every word he said and cared deeply about his life. His passion for Joe’s script filled everyone with tears by the end of the performance. It’s clear blue skies for Jacob as he climbs the ladder of success."

Here is the full article,

Early Press on "Honey" from Cinema Crazed!!!

Let us thank Felix Vasquez, Jr.and his sensational film site, Cinema Crazed for rolling out some early press on "Honey, I'm Home"

Here's a snippet of the write-up...

"From the gist, "Honey I'm Home" involves a man whose wife may or may not know that he's cheating on her, and from there, it gets awfully hazy. Director Branin is intent on keeping this project's details a mystery, which draws the interest of us at Cinema Crazed."

Here is the direct link - We Go Inside Honey I'm Home

Honey I’m Home to Premiere at HollyShorts Film Festival on August 12th!!!

We are tremendously excited to report that "Honey I'm Home," our brand new short film was accepted into this year's HollyShorts Film Festival. It was the first festival we submitted it to, and it becomes our first Official Selection.

Honey I'm Home is written and directed by David Branin while being shot and edited by Vincent Martinez of Def Films. It stars Jacob Magnuson and Karen Worden. "Shoot-Out" composer Rudy Mangual reunites with Branin to complete the original musical score.

This film tackles the topic of being unfaithful and having to confess the truth to one's companion. Never before has infidelity been explored in the way that Branin does in this five minute masterpiece.

Honey I'm Home will make it's World Premiere at the HollyShorts Film Festival on Sunday August 12th at the CineSpace Digital Superclub located on Hollywood Boulevard in Hollywood, California.

Bodywash Spoof is a Grand Prize Winner on Darejunkies

Thank you. For the second month in a row, one of our projects has finished in the Top 3 in the latest Darejunkies competition. With everyone's late voting surge, you were able to propel our "Bodywash Spoof" into a 2nd place overall finish. Awesome!

Your effort helps us tuck away a little more money towards our upcoming first feature film. A project that we are very excited about, and we believe you will be as well.

More on "Bodywash Spoof" - This little video has been seen millions of times, duplicated, and reposted on site after site across the internet. It stars Melanie Specht and Daniel Sol with David Branin operating behind the scenes. It is based on the bodywash ad where a man's girlfriend asks him, "So, which of my friends would you sleep with?" In the ad, the man ignores the question and not answer. In our version, the boyfriend answers the question and then some. Do not click on this if you are easily offended.

Bodywash Spoof

PS. - We will have a new darejunkies video done in a few days so you will want to stay tuned.
