Just started going through some...

Just started going through some videos from the REC Room @ Sundance this weekend, check out this one of a festival goer named Aaron (I think?) that stopped by to join HitRECord and record some piano for humunkulus’s “Family Band” song.

It’s been 3 1/2 years since I wrote that first Family Band RECord, and the stream of overwhelming responses that has flowed ever since then is something I’ll never get over. The fact that there’s a really catchy song from the Family Band collaboration now stuck in my head, and there are people at the Sundance 2013 REC Room RECording stuff for that really catchy Family Band song… well these are just the latest amazing additions to the collaboration. IF YOU ONLY KNEW the dorky origin story of that first Family Band RECord… good grief… you’d all pants me for sure.
This next statement will only make sense to a curious some: I’ve secretly kept a copy of the old V3 Family Band conversation pages that by all accounts transformed the Family Band text RECord into a real HitRECord Family Band thingy. I still have them! Now might finally be the time for me to dig those out again and share them with you all again. Until then, check out what’s going on in the Family Band Collaboration.

EXCITING NEWS! :oD

I am super stoked to announce that “Don Jon’s Addiction” - the movie I wrote & directed - just closed a really great deal and it’s going to come out all over the world!
This movie was made traditionally, as opposed to our collective collaborative process here at hitRECord. One day I do hope to make a feature film that way with you guys. I think the success that “Don Jon” has achieved so far will really help us in our future endeavors as a production company.
I do want to say that I have learned so much being hitRECord’s Director - working on all of our short films & various other productions. I could not have done “Don Jon’s Addiction” without all of the experience here on hitRECord & I owe you guys a lot!
Thanks…
And Thanks Again!

Have you never even seen a snow storm?
How does snow make you feel?

* WRITERS: Write a story, poem, or memory about snow.
* ILLUSTRATORS: Create some imagery about snow.
* MUSICIANS: Make a song about snow.
* CINEMATOGRAPHERS & FILMMAKERS: Film some footage of snow & snowy activities, or download some snow resources on hitRECord & make a short film.
