Let’s Talk Films, AI and Everything Else CDI

Good morning! It is a hot, humid morning here in the Michigan with little rain spurts adding to the warmth. I hope it doesn't ruin the flea market down the road. I've been collecting props for the upcoming film. Outside the film world I've been adjusting to our soccer season being over. The growth on the property is getting wild again so I'll have more tree trimming as a few wild branches are touching the siding....

DEVIL’S PASS Prepping to Sail and Other CDI Film Updates!

Good morning. I'm sitting here and sipping my coffee and trying a sweet cream versus my hazelnut. I occasionally change it up but always come back to my favorite. I've been enjoying the wonderful Summer weather and especially with the new deck. Nice to sit out there and make business calls. A rest in the hammock is always peaceful. I've been doing some tree trimming and herb harvesting, mainly sage and mint....

Welcome August! CDI Film Updates- Screenings, Releases, Development

CDI has had many great sponsors and product partners! I bet you know what I'm sipping on. Hazelnut coffee and with the wet cool weather it is hitting the spot just perfect. I want to say that I've been enjoying the Summer. The rain has brought out all the shades of green. Sunflowers and butterfly attracting milkweed in abundance. The mulberries have taken a season off on my main trees due to the trimming I did....

Align Yourself With Joy and Hope – CDI Updates!

The hazelnut coffee just sets more mornings right. I'm looking forward to getting into talking about films but I wanted to speak into a few things. First, Disneyland - I made a mention after my blog that I felt was worth sharing here. The world and especially here in America feel so divided by interests. Be that religion, politics, sports teams - you name it....

Some great pics of young DJ and in those two photos that is Dane DeFord. I told you we’ve known each other a long time. Dane is family.

In CA got to connect with my childhood buddy Darrel. Friends since kindergarten and my first collaborator in storytelling. Radio dramas and making movies with the camcorder.

Family, Friends and Films – Updates

I'm sipping my hazelnut coffee and sitting down to reflect with all of you. I have had a rollercoaster of exciting highs and sad lows as is life. Last Thursday I headed to CA on one of the first real vacations in recent memory. It was a trip to Disneyland which I've never been to. I've only been to Disney World as a child a few times since we had grandparents in Florida....
