Hey all! Or at least whomever bothers coming here anymore.

Fraid I have some bad news for those of you who are looking forward to my films come september. I havn't had time to make one! Not a single one! I'm not happy about it, but with a full time job, I just don't have the time that I used to, hell, I barely have time to update my site anymore (as you no doubt would have noticed.) I'm currently working on one this weekend, I hope I can finish it before I have to go to work on Monday. Seriously, after a day of lifting concrete forms, you really don't feel like doing anything but lazing around when I get home. After I (hopefully) finish this film, I am going to begin planning the longest independent production to come out of Groovy Mule Productions. A few hints:

-It will still be to a song, no voices

-It will be around 11 mins long

-I've mentioned the song before ;)

Anyway, I hope I can find the willpower this weekend to finish my film, I only have the intro filmed. Anyway, thought I'd update you fella's on what I've been doing.

Peace out!

Alas, I am now officially cut off from my precious high speed connection. I write this at home on one line, dial up internet, with only 20 hours a month. I grew too close to my high speed connection. Anyway, this doesn't mean this site will stay completely dormant over the next three months. Fortunatly I have my computer already set up at home, so I will continue to create machinima, even while I can't upload it. So I should have lots, come next September. In other news, I finally bought The Sims 2: University. I havn't installed it yet, as I am still busy with real university. Only one exam left then I'm free for three months. So I have yet to test it out, but I'm most interested in new objects and interactions, rather then the new age group. I also have the idea for my next film. It will feature a song I don't even like! Well, I like the words, but can't stand the genre. Anyone that's talked to me will have a good idea what kind then. Thats all for now, peace out all.

It's about damn time! I finally came out with my next film. Check it out on the Film Archive. It's called Lovers in a Dangerous Time, put to the tune of the same name by the Barenaked Ladies. I am fan, but I prefer their older music such as this, but not so much of a fan of their newer stuff. Post your comments in the guestbook. Thanks. I apologize for taking so long to to get this out to everyone, but this semester has been hell. I havn't had much time to do much else. But in the middle of EXAM time, I managed to squeek in an afternoon to create this for you. Exuse any bugs in the film, Vegas has a bad habit of showing me stuff, AFTER its been rendered. I may get around to fixing those bugs. But unfortunatly, this is the last film you'll see from me till September. I'll be home for the summer, away from my precious high speed connection. I'm afraid I can't upload stuff at the farm where we get twenty hours of dial up internet a month on one phone line.....Sounds so primitive eh? Anyway I will still be creating them over the summer, so hopefully, I'll have a film release festival for you when I get back. But next year I get to do some reel filming! (Get it? Reel....Film....Eh Forget it!) I was accepted into Video Productions here at my university, so I get to do more of what I love. This site will stay pretty dormant over the summer as well.....kinda like the past two months. Anyway, enjoy the film, peace out, and I'll have more for you come September!

EDIT: Upon writing and posting this update, I see I now have ad's at the top of my page. Curses! The price of being to damn cheap to get a real website. Try to ignore the ads the best you can. Know that Groovy Mule Productions in no, way, shape or form endorces these products (But I would post your ad.....Damn I gotta get a real job...)

Lots of news today. Well I finally came out with another film, this was actually my third attempt since "Mad World" as the other two were scrapped. You can view my new film entitled "End of the Innocence" in the Film Archieve. I also have to say unfortunatly I will not be able to keep up the volume of films I did last year, as university demands my attention. Although last year I figured out I had twelve films over about three months which averaged out to a film a week! Yikes! Anyway you may notice a new addition to the site. I now have a new film critiquing section entitled "That Show Sucked!" shamelessly stolen from This Hour Has 22 Minutes. There I will review films that people post for me. Before submitting a film for review please carefully read the disclaimer. Alright thats all for now. Enjoy the new film and section. ALSO, a talented friend of mine, Jesse Matt, sent me some of his animations, this one here was his first one and I find it hilarious! Simplicity at its best!


News 01/17/05
I have finally decided to get DivX. So now all future films will be rendered using DivX due to the fact it can compress the videos so well and retain quality. All my previous films will also be converted to DivX. Anyway I have been working a bit on my next film. Although I am also writing several other films as well so it is taking up much of my time. My directors blog also has a new entry with some interesting information. Also the Groovy Mule Productions website now has over 1000 hits!


News 01/14/05
Evermind is here! Well we are finally finished the first episode of Evermind: The Tales of Fallow Falls. Lots of hard work went in to this episode by both the cast and crew. It features some great voice acting, writing, and special effects (done by yours truely). It is a long episode at 8 mins 30 secs. During productions we hit a few snags (my editor was acting like a piece of crap!) but we managed to overcome them. We should begin shooting of episode 2 fairly soon so keep and eye out for that. You can watch the first episode here. Other then that pretty boring here at Groovy Mule Productions. Not much other news. Thanks once again for dropping by!


News 01/11/05
The Groovy Mule Productions archieve is complete! You may now watch anyone of my movies from my first "Fractured Family" to my latest "Mad World". Very exicting times people! Well maye not for you, but for me its great to make all my films available to everyone. Not everyone was around when I made my first so here's a chance to collect em all! If you find any broken links please email me and tell me. Thanks. Enjoy the full archieve, any high resolution versions that I have are up there. Enjoy! Three new links in the Afffiliates page, to LittleSimGirls new site, MasterSimmer510's Page and also one to Crazyredbeauty's site. I have also created a new GIF animation you can use as a button if you wish to link to my site. And I do realize the counter is not showing up on the bottom. The people at Freewebs said their techs were "right on it" and it would be fixed in 30-45 mins....That was a day ago.....

Well I've finally decided to use this site. Believe me, I have tried MANY others. Freewebs is horrible when it comes to downloading things off its server so I have linked else where. This site sat abandoned since my last news but it is active again! I hope you like it, the looks of this site are much better then others. I will be putting in more features soon such as a directors blog and possibly directors notes on previous films. Well here's an interesting discovery, I can't enter my own chat room. Most likely becuase of my university. They block a number of things from P2P to this. A fellow on my floor knows a way aound it, I'll ask him.


News 12/21/04

Welcome to the new Official Home of Groovy Mule Productions. I am not very graceful when it comes to website design and the amount I can change is limited due to the fact I am too cheap to buy a real domain name. But athetics aside, enjoy the site, and I will have my latest movie up as well as a rolling archieve of previous movies for you to view. I hope you all enjoy it.
