FORGOTTEN FILMS OF EUGENE: VOLUME ONE!
Mike finished his collection of ours and a few other people's work. It totals 95 minutes, and has three of my longer shorts, and a bunch of animations and Asa puppet craziness and a couple other peoples' shorts. We'll hopefully be premiering it at the Bijou in late July. We're also selling DVDs for $5 each. Mike's got a bunch with a DVD case menu he designed, and I'm going to make my own DVD cover (and possibly do my own DVD menu and include some extras) to sell. For now, if you want one... you can call him or I just tell me and I'll get one for you from him! It ain't perfect, but it's interesting and the kinks certainly don't ruin the overall awesome. The completed movie contains the finished (except The Monster, which I intend to someday complete as I intended it--Mike's cut is included) versions of many of the films on our youtube page.

This first volume has a good three episodes of material, and as we widen our community of contributing artists and refine our archiving and audio tweeking techniques it'll become more and more plausable. It's a good way to go at this point, since big budgets and larger stand-alone films are very difficult to put together with our resources.
