watch Enigma: Behind the Scenes!

You crafty bastards! My GOD this thing looks good. You guys are a true inspiration. I've worked on a lot of indie sets, and let me tell you...oooo weee...you guys have what it takes, and your going places. Such an incredibly talented cast and crew, all with a driving passion that will carry you all to your dreams. I know I know...pour on the violin music...but really.

This thing will definitely get picked up in some way. I'm not sure how long it is...or what market you plan to hit...whether the length is set for episodic television...or whether this is just a pilot. Whatever it is, it will do really well both as a legit peice to show, and a starter pistol for your careers.

I'm going to bug the hell out of you guys...and constantly remind you of my presence. I'd very much like to work on your next film...I'll do it for peanuts. No litterally...OK OK, add some jelly and bread, and I'm fine. But really. Please take a look at my Myspace and the trailers and clips I have up, and consider me for future projects. I take my craft very seriously, have been steadily working on the East Coast on film after film, and plan to move with my actress wife to LA in a year or so...I'll be looking for you guys.

Take care, and good luck. I can't wait to see this thing in its entirety.
