Thanks once more for all your all kind words dude, I really love the Twilight Zone, I’ve only seen a fe episodes but to me it still stands as a legacy of Rod Sterling’s genius, he truly was a pioneer of the thinking mans Sci Fi, and treated the genre with respect which is surprising considering The Twilight Zone was made in the 50’s, the era of Sci- Fi B movies. When money isn’t an issue I will look into more Rod Sterling work, a truly underrated talent.
My film “the last Broadcast” was shown at my local theatre as part of a competition, unfortunately it didn’t win but it was something I’ll never forget.

My animation project is something that we’ve working on for a while, I’m scripting it and a friend of mine (the voice of the possessed in the Last Broadcast) is animating it. I’m hoping it will be around 10 episodes each with 20-30 minute run time per episode. I’m hoping to have dialogue recorded soon and have the first episode up by March hopefully. I can’t wait for you guys (and Jim of course) to see it, it’s by far my best work yet and when it’s finished Rockman is going to be the first place I post a link to it on.
