I’m almost afraid to report on Minushi‘s progress these day just to avoid the now all too familiar (yet oh, so satisfying) question: “When’s the next episode coming out?” Because in truth, i don’t know.

With an increased emphasis on preparing Minushi in its feature form, i’ve become a little less concerned with regular online chapter updates. For the most part i’m doing this because i get emails from people telling me they’d love a DVD copy of Minushi more often than i get people asking for Minushi to be a series bound exclusively to the internet. So with that in mind, i hope you all continue to show the remarkable patience you’ve shown for this project so far. Good things are coming.

Work on Minushi continues as ever, with a targeted date of completion by late Summer 2006.

In the past few weeks work has been primarily focused on getting the Minushi DVD Demo prepared for mailing to potential distribution companies. The demo contains the first 67 minutes of Minushi in its feature length form, which includes some footage that’s never been seen online. The demo has come out looking fantastic and is making its way to the various distributors who have expressed interest in the movie.

The demo is not available to the public, though through the necessary time taken to prepare it, we will see Minushi released as a feature length motion picture in due time.

I know what you’re thinking… Why is this jackass screwing around with Photoshop when he should be working on the next Minushi Chapter! Well it’s all part of the master plan and in this case part of the launch of the Minushi Press Information section.

Yup, narcissistic, self indulgent, desperately hopeful that anyone in the media will care? You bet. But that’s show business and like it or not you’ve gotta play the game just a little bit. Because when buzz finally comes down there’s nothing worse than being caught with your pants down. Been there and believe me, if you miss out you lose out.

So yeah, me superimposed into a cartoon. It’s so tacky it’s awesome. To all entertainment reporters out there, bring it on. Let’s talk Minushi.

Well the first 60 minutes of the Minushi feature length cut are looking great! Over the past couple weeks i’ve been adjusting Flash files for the video exports necessary to edit the feature length version of the movie. Sitting down and watching sixty straight minutes of Minushi on the big little screen with it’s hi-fi sound is a beautiful thing! The revised score will be the component that requires the most adjustments and as of yet, the demo i’ve prepared is still without music.

I’ve also been busy trying to gather info about distributors and film festivals in order to get something together in the way of releasing this feature length motion picture to the world so you can all see what Minushi was produced to look like as a whole.

The feature edit of Minushi is coming along well. The edit requires a lot of tweaking and will hopefully be an entirely different experience from a viewing stand point than the online chapters. Work on the latest online chapter is also still underway. In the mood for something completely different? Check out Minushi‘s newly relaunched parent site Boneland.com.
