Double Shifts

Well, it has been a while since the last post but a lot has happened since then.

Postman

I (Richard) am now an official intern at the Postman Post-Production Studio based in Moncton. Because of this I work pretty much 70 hours per week or more...because of my real job at Needs...

Anyway, it is really cool and exciting for me but it also means that video production for EP has basically gone down the toilet.

:(

Don't Panic

Speaking of EP videos, a new one was posted today called "Don't Panic".

Yes, it is the same Don't Panic that was dreamed up by Shaun and I back in '08. Sorry it took so long to get to you but if you want to check it out here is a link:

That's all for now.

"The Answer is 42!"

June bugs!

Well today I saw my fist June Bugs of the year...and other than thinking of how they like to get stuck in my hair or make love with my eyes...they reminded me that summer vacation is near!

With school coming to an end in June and the Mike back in Moncton for the summer, its almost time to start talking about videos.

New members of EP

Although nothing is official, we might be working on a few projects in a few weeks with some new faces to EP. As was planned last year, we will probably be making an AR2 video sometime this summer along with a DON'T PANIC as well as some other short films.

Most recently talks of producing a type of viral/health video have been happening for a local nutritionist that wants to "do something off the wall to send a message". I'm excited to get to work on this project when I get the chance after finals in June.

Speaking of school, we will all be headed back in September except maybe for Shaun who may be working again but were not sure what he's up to. I haven't even talked to anyone in weeks and am very lonely having to go to school all the time :(

Basically keep your eyes open for future videos as always!

Two movies for the Price of One!

Hey, everyone!

We'd like to share some good news and some bad news with ya...Bad news first? Ok, well here goes. Richard and I no longer wanted to participate in the Doritos viral video since we always leave that to the last minute, so we came up with an idea, and thats where the good news comes in.

Two movies are currently on the way to the official EP Youtube channel as we speak, one movie called Night Runners, and the other, Andro1d. You'll understand soon enough, I do not want to spoil it yet! You may actually enjoy them!

Recently, we've gotten some hate mail from people on our fun cover of Megadeths song Dialectic Chaos, and from our AR2 from the abyss videos. I do not tolerate with hate mail, so I put them in their place and tell them off in a polite manner. Hate mail reminds me of people who sit at home all day with nothing better to do with their lives and rate fun movies, like just do what I do, dont comment on them at all.

Here is one of our comments, from the Abyss AR2 video which offended me:
"you have started puberty go get a fucking job shit dick"

But enough of that, check out our new vids when they get posted up! Please no hate mail, you can dislike, but if anyone says something nasty, I wont hesitate to say something back :)

That's about it for this blog, adios!

New Unidentified EP Short? And another Dorito's Video?

While trying coming up with idea's to create a Viral Video for Dorito's, Richard and I had a weird idea to come up with an exclusive EP short, it's no serious short, but its probably, how you say effed! We're not going to release further details on that matter since it is a suprise!

Also, we have plans for a second video to submit to Dorito's, the first one, is most likely going to be scraped, but we may still use parts of it. That one could be also a suprise, but here's a hint:
"Dorito's FireStarter"

That is pretty much it with the blog this week, keep in touch, stay tuned to our EP Youtube channel, and look for our videos in the 'Not so distant future!'

Peace

Dorito's Commercial: Round 2

Richard and I are back to our shinnanagins once again, when we enter the Doritos Challenge for the second time!

Last year, we had a great idea, but not enough time to complete it, so we came nowhere near the win, but this year, we could have a chance, and if we succeed we could win up to $250,000! yes that's right quarter of a million!

We are filming this Friday, it's Wednesday now, and we have til March 21,2010 to have it entered so we still have lots of time to create a spectacular video.

Also if we win, not only do we win a big chunk of change, but our video will be used as a commercial and the flavour we chose will be sold on the market!

So EP fans, root for the best, hope we win and we'll be forever grateful!!

Random Update of Love

Greetings!

We just posted recent activity on to our next serious EP projects.
High Stakes (Spring/Summer 2010)
AR2(2011)
Don't_Panic!(2011)

Also, if you still haven't forgotten, we have shirts up for grabs if anyone wants to purchase this lovely item! We have Sm, Med, Lg, X-Lg shirts, so come and get yours today! Most proceeds go towards the IWK foundraiser, which we plan to donate each year! 2009 wasn't a successful year in sales so we could not afford to give to charity :(, Sorry.

In other news, EP's History has been updated, so if you want full coverage on how we came to be, stop by our channel via YouTube, and read the full discription if you got nothing better to do on a lazy day.

Really not much else has been in progress lately, Richard is back in school since the Holidays are over and Mike has ventured back into the depths of Toronto to aquire a degree of being a Youth Pastor. That's pretty much it for now, sorry it's not a big post, but it is one I suppose. Ciao.

Love,
Shaun

Entering a New Decade

Happy New Year!

We have a strange new responsibility upon us to remember not to put 2009 on the page anymore because it is now 2010! You must also ask yourself...will you be saying "two thousand-ten" or "twenty-ten"? Personally, I think twenty ten has a nice futuristic ring to it.

If anyone remembers, last year Effed Productions made a monetary donation to the IWK with the goal of doubling the size of that donation this year. However, with insufficient t-shirt sales, very little filming activity, and no profit to show for the year. A large donation is unlikely. Maybe next year.

Film Projects

This year was our least productive one (of two) in the history of EP. Of every project that was planned for production over the summer, none were completed. Largely, this is because of other more important commitments...jobs, school, girls, you know...Anyway, we saw this coming, and were not too surprised. If all goes as planned, EP should be more on the ball by next fall.

Project status:

Don't Panic- posponed

AR2- cancelled

High Stakes- Un-started
