I was checking out the "Dead in the Water" site and saw that Marc etal. are working on a new film for release next Fall. Whassup?

Magic 8 is a project we've been planning since 2001 but, because of financial constraints, have never been able to do. Originally it was planned to be an episodic Internet "serial" similar those of the 40's and 50's. A lot of the people we talked to back then said it would never fly because who would want to watch video on their computer? Jump ahead 5 years.

Because Internet video has grown so much since 2001 we thought we'd try it again. We're updating the scripts and will start talking to investors next month. It definitely has a heftier budget than Dead in the Water because of certain distribution avenues I can't go into here. There are also a lot more actors required, more locations, bigger sets and more special effects.

If all goes according to plan we'll be in production next spring with a release in the fall.
