News and Updates

UPDATES

 

4-19-2012

Well it's been a little over a month and I'm back with quite a bit.  I told you last time that I was working on two shows.  Well one I can't talk about, but the other I'm happy to announce is BOOK OF BANTORRA. It's got an amazing cast, some old familiar face and few new ones as well.  I am so proud of the work everyone has put in on the show, and am in the final stages of recording season 2 of the show.  I've also been given my next 2 projects to work on, but as you all know.. I can't talk about them yet.

What I can talk about are the updates here.  I've got pictures up from both ANIME DETOUR and ANIME BOSTON, and while I usually try for a May update I'm happy to say that the MOCK COMBAT FOR COSPLAY GALLERIES have been updated on pages 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59, 60, 61, and 62 (This includes pictures from Ikkicon, Ohayocon, Katsucon, Anime Detour and Anime Boston) so there's quite a bit to look at.

Up next is ANIME NORTH in Toronto, I am looking forward to getting back up there again and seeing some old friends.  This year may be a little slower for me convention wise, as they are keeping me pretty busy at the studio (not that I am complaining at all)  so it's harder for me to take time away from work to get out to as many shows, but know that I'll be making it out to as many as I can, and I hope to see some of you when I am there.  You can check out the ones I will be at on my Convention Schedule, and I will make sure to announce any new ones that I am able to do, there as well.

So until next time... Take care of each other

I actually got back for an update sooner than I expected.  I have been slammed at the studio, working on a project that I am beyond excited about.  It's got a huge cast with so much amazing talent that I am floored with the way it's turning out.  I've just gotten volume 1 done and am already at work on vol. 2.  While doing that I was also doing another show that I'm very proud of.  I can't name either show yet, but as soon as I can I will let you all know

Even with the busy schedule I managed to get an update done.  I had an amazing time at KATSUCON and have the pictures to prove it.  It's always so good being in D.C. and getting to see family and so many friends in that area.  I've also updated the Convention Schedule, with another convention, and there will be more coming as I'm announced.

Coming up next is Anime Detour and Anime Boston, both shows that I love, with staff that are like family, so I can't wait for that.  Until then I'll be locked in the studio working on the new show (Not that I mind at all... I'm having a blast)  Until then.. Take care of each other

I apologize for the delay in the updates, but things have been busy and there is so much that I'm excited to be able to share with you, so I'm going to start with that.  Back in December I announced here that I was Directing EF~ A TALE OF MEMORIES.  I've got a few more announcements to make.  At the end of February you'll be able to see the follow up series EF~ A TALE OF MELODIES, which I also directed. Another show that you should check out, I don't have the release dates for yet, is DREAM EATER MERRY which I'm not only in (Playing Jon Doe) but was also the ADR writer for the show along with my good friend Clint Bickham.  I've got two new projects that I'm working on, and while I can't talk about them yet, I will just say that I am very VERY excited about them.

So it seems like I'm just getting this update done and I will be leaving Thurs. for my next convention.  I'm happy to say that I've got the pictures up from Ikkicon part 1, and part 2 (since it split the new year) I've also got the page up for Ohayocon.  You can also see updates to my Convention Schedule, and for conventions I've updated my Convention Info page with a new bio to use.

As I said I've gotten this done and will be leaving for Katsucon, on Thurs. and I look forward to seeing all of my friends in that area.  Until next time have fun stay warm.. and take care of each other

12 - 26 - 2011

Wow, I think this is the longest the site has been without an update and I apologize for that.  So this is going to be a REALLY  BIG update.  One of the reasons for the slow down on the updates is that I've been back in the studio directing.  I've had two projects back to back and possibly have another coming up very soon.  I  am not able to talk about all of them at the moment, but I am able to say that the studio has announced that I am the director for EF~ A TALE OF MEMORIES which will be out at the end of Jan.  I can't begin to tell you all how proud I am of the show and the amazing cast, and so I hope you'll pick that up very soon.

I've also been super busy with my end of the year conventions, and I have the updates to prove it.  I've got the convention pages up for Bakaretsucon, Oni-Con, Sugiocon, and Yulecon.  I have also updated the Convention Schedule Page to include those and my last con of the year Ikkicon in Austin Texas.   Once again this con will split the new year so it's my last con of 2011 and my first of 2012.  So if you're in the Austin area please come down and have some fun with us.

Also I have finally gotten a moment to add to the ever growing Mock Combat for Cosplay Gallery, I've added pages 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49 and 50.  So there's a lot of great new material for you to take a peek at.

I had a wonderful Christmas Holiday with my family and friends here in Houston, and hope that everyone had a safe and fun Holiday Season.  Please remember to cherish and love the people around you, and let them know from time to time how much you appreciate them, and how important they are to you. I will be updating again soon with the con schedule for 2012 and until that time... Take care of each other.

Love and Laughter Always

I know I've been gone a long time, but things have been super busy around here.  I can finally talk about the new project at the studio.  I did the ADR directing for NIGHT RAID 1931, it was a lot of fun so I hope that you guys will check the show out.  I also did some ADR writing for a project that I can't talk about yet, but as soon as I can you know I will tell you all right here.

I've also had quite a busy summer with conventions, as the photographic evidence will show.  I've got pages up for PortCon Maine, Wausaubicon, Kamikazecon, AnimeIowa, San Japan and Sogencon.

I have a few more cons this year that have not announced me yet.. and as soon as they do I'll be updating my convention schedule and possibly posting a few of the conventions for next year.

I hope that this update finds everyone well and I hope to see you all at a convention real soon.  Until next time... Take Care of Each Other.

Love and Laughter Always

Hello everyone, sorry I've been away so long, but as soon as I got back form Anime Boston, I got handed an exciting new project at the studio here in Houston.  I can't talk about it yet, but as soon as I can I will be posting here so you all will can hear about it.

Despite some pretty long hours at the studio I've managed to squeeze a few conventions in and have finally gotten to update the site here.. I've got pictures up from Anime Boston, Anime North and OMGcon.  All of them were wonderful and I had a great time.

I've also updated the Mock Combat for Cosplay Gallery with new pictures on pages 38, 39, 40, 41, 42 and 43.

I will be doing some updates on the Convention Schedule page soon, so keep a look out for that.  Next convention coming up will be Port Con Main. So hope to see some of you there  Until next time... Take Care of Each Other

I am home from Anime Detour, and WOW what an amazing weekend. I was very excited as they had Paul Cornell as one of the guests.  He is not only a well known comic book writer but is also a novelist and has written several episodes of Doctor Who, including one of my all time favorite episodes.  He and his wife were such sweet people.  Another guest was Tadao  Tomomatsu who is the Shake-hands-man on the television show Banzai, and he was such a sweet man, and a lot of fun.  I guess the biggest news from Anime Detour is that between the charity auction, the raffle and donation boxes the convention was able to raise over $36,000.00 for the Red Cross in their efforts to aid the people of Japan from the horrible situation that they are currently facing. It was such an amazing weekend and what made is extra special was the fact that I had friends from all over come in.  Friends from AI-Kon in Winnipeg came down, friends from OMGcon, Sugoicon came in from Kentucky and friends from Ikkicon came in from Texas, and none of them were disappointed.

I guess I should get on to the update.  I've got the Anime Detour page loaded and once again there were so many good pictures that I had to create a Page 2.  There are also a few conventions added to the Convention Schedule and more will be added as I am announced.  Next stop is Anime Boston and in that time I've got some fight directing and choreography work to keep me busy.  So until  that time... Take care of each other.

Hello everyone, since I had a couple of days off I decided to update the Mock Combat for Cosplay Gallery before my schedule kicked back into overdrive.  I've got a show that I'm about to start fight directing and doing a choreography gig on top of recording and conventions.  I originally intended to update the Mock Combat Cosplay Gallery twice a year, but with the number of amazing pictures I got at Ikkicon, Ohayocon, and Katsucon I had about 131 pictures to add.  I also know that my next two conventions Anime Detour and Anime Boston usually yield a ton of great pictures so I decided to do an update before I hit those cons.

You can follow the link and go straight to the Mock Combat for Cosplay Gallery or to any of the new updated pages 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, or 38.  Also remember that Mock Combat for Cosplay has it's own Facebook Group so if you're not already there come and check us out.

I do have to say a quick thank you to Wes (Who took pictures for me at Ohayocon) and to Jessika (Who took pictures for me at Katsucon)  I think they are two of the reasons that we've gotten so many good shots..  The next con coming up with be Anime Detour and so I'll be back after that to update the site.  Until that time.... Take care of each other
