Skywalker Sound, here I come!

It's been too long since my last post-production update, but I just got some great news... 

I've wanted to visit Lucasfilm's Skywalker Ranch since I was a little kid checking out my public library's beat-up copy of "The Making Of Star Wars" for the millionth time, and I never thought I'd get the opportunity to actually bring one of my movies there. 

But thanks to the heroic efforts of my composer, Ryan Shore, I'm headed out to Northern California in just a few short weeks to record the score for ARTICLES OF WAR. Ryan's written an incredible score, and watching him conduct the Skywalker Symphony Orchestra at the Ranch's Technical Building (take a virtual tour here!) will be a dream come true. 

The whole post-production team is going to be spending the night at the Ranch at the Skywalker Inn, where each room is dedicated to a different film pioneer. I'm crossing my fingers that the Winsor McCay room is still available...

Thanks to comics journalist Marcos Milone, who featured one of my background paintings from ARTICLES OF WAR on his Mellart blog. And now I'm blogging about his blog. All that's left is for somebody else to blog about my blog featuring his blog.
