Joe heard about the Howard Stern Film Festival, and suggested making a
Fartman movie. We both wrote the script. Joe played Fartman and I
directed and edited. We cast friends we knew from working in theater
and started hiring crew, finding props and costumes, and rehearsing
with the actors,. We shot for two days and then had a few weeks for
post-production.

We've had great responses to the film. We've been hearing from a lot of
people through our website (www.fartmanmovie.com) and through myspace
who have told us how much they enjoyed the film.

About two days before we were supposed to submit the film, we noticed
that there was a rule which said you couldn't use SAG actors. Joe is in
SAG as were a lot of our actors. We went ahead and submitted the film
anyway. In Demand called us to let us know we were potential finalists.
But then when we admitted that we had union members, we were
disqualified. However, In Demand's producers loved the movie. They said
it was one of their favorites. They put it up on Howard Stern's In
Demand channel, Howard TV.

If someone wants to hire us, we'd be glad to work in television.
Actually, when Howard Stern first announced he was thinking of doing
the film festival, we wrote a much longer script. A week later he
announced that the films could only be five minutes long so we had to
cut a considerable amount of characters and story line. We'd love it if
he hired us to make more Fartman stories for Howard TV so we could
bring back those characters.

Not exclusively, but a lot of my writing does end up veering towards
comedy. When I choose to write about a serious topic, I usually end up
poking fun of it. I think I spent way too much time as a kid alone in
my room watching Monty Python.

I love that I live in a city where every day people are writing
screenplays, shooting films and rehearsing plays.  There's always
something I can do to further my career.
 
> What's up next forGold Cap? Any projects in development?

We're currently submitting "Never Say Macbeth" to several film
festivals. You can check out a trailer at www.neversaymacbeth.com. We
also have a couple of projects in development. We are starting to raise
financing for a comedy that Joe wrote about seniors and gambling. The
other, written by myself, is a coming of age comedy.

Thanks!
