	TRADING THIS BOTTLE FOR A BIBLE (5 min) Directed by MICKEY STROUD Authored by KENT DIXON Artist name: DIXON & ALLEN .
Click image to view trailer	WON'T BE AROUND (3 min) Written, Directed and Produced by TERRY BLADE Written and Produced by BOBBY COLE Produced by COTTON BROTHERS STUDIO Produced by LARRY ROBERTSON "Won't Be Around" is a song written and performed by singer-songwriter Terry Blade. At its core, the song is about meaning the words we say, and acting on the words we've used. It is not enough to just tell someone we won't be around for them if they treat us poorly. We have to be completely and totally absent. This project is the official music video for the song. Stylistically, the song and video draw from the rural and early American roots music of the first half of the 20th century--the lifeblood of America's musical and cultural heritage.

To accomplish this I placed the tripod and camera within an inch of the wall of a concrete building and found the optimum spot for viewing without any wind shake! Filmed at 120 fps but rendered to 30 fps to better appreciate the sheer power of the waves.

CLICK IMAGE TO VIEW TRAILER	MANIMAL REDUX (4 min) Directed by JERALD IRWIN MORSE This film is my poetic interpretation of the punk song "Manimal" originally performed by The Germs in Los Angeles 1979.

I have a custom sync license to use the lyrics from the publisher.
