A new Bart and Jonesy uh... joint

Our new movie. I was going to wait until the new issue, but this will be way old news by then.

It's called GHOST PIMP. Our own Will Baxter was the cameraman. We submitted this for the Wild West Film Festival here in Lawrence. They gave you a theme (scary movies) and five things (three of which you must include in your movie) and you have 48 hours to create a 5-minute movie.

The five things were: eyes, ice, jack o'lantern, botched magic and the line, 'don't go in there... or do.'

Obviously, we did not submit a scary movie. We did a comedy. Because, after all, that's what we do.

They showed this movie at Liberty Hall in Lawrence, the same place where I've seen some pretty cool concerts. It was a rush seeing myself up on their big screen. Copy Jesus also came to see how we did.

Me, Bart and Copy J will again become filmmakers this summer when the Wild West Film Fest opens up the competition again. We'll come back with a better showing this next time... we'll spend more time on the script to make the editing process easier. We had to cut down this one from seven minutes, so a lot of the jokes ended up on the cutting room floor.

Anyway, thanks for watching... enjoy!
