Ha!  There will be easter eggs all over the place.  The easy ones are the bumper stickers.  It gets more difficult from there.  Don't worry - there will be plenty of subliminal and hidden messages.....

ETA: beach sunrise picture - just because.

Compliments from those who do Cola Warrior for FUN is overwhelming!!  I hope to join all of you next year, but more importantly - I hope to be shooting a movie series, and thus be unavailable .  Thanks again to all of you that competed last week.

Maybe capitalize on Cola Warrior and shoot some footage with all of those available characters? You could maybe use it as Jon and Gunneys training sessions.

Thanks for the bump guys .  I've been chomping at the bit to make an announcement, but we keep tweaking things and rewriting. I think it's time to give the big update, though.  

So the big news is that all three scripts are done!!.  Yes, it took us a year (almost on the nose), but it was worth it.  This process usually takes 4 to 5 years (yes, seriously), so getting it done in 1 was a big accomplishment.  This was the big painful part, although we have a few tough months ahead of us.  You should start to get more updates now.


As stated a few months ago - our next steps for this year were as follows:

(1) finish all three scripts - to a point they surpass Hollywood quality (note: a typical scriptwriting process takes 4-5 years - we're trying to do it in 1) Done!!

(2) complete a full script breakdown/budget, including location scouting, shoot schedule, propmaster, etc. (target: end of July)

(3) casting - negotiate LOI's with lead cast, production company and director. (will begin in August)

(4) get "investor ready" - business plan, legal docs, updated website, trailer, etc. (completed late 2014)


We have a LOT of sponsor and gear updates, and think you're going to be very excited about a number of things we'll announce later this year.  You wouldn't believe me now if I told you .  Anyway, once all this is done - we'll be queued up for investors.  We will have finished scripts, a detailed budget, recognizable "A list" cast attached, rebates and credits in place, and everything needed to green-light the project in 2015.

Thanks again for hassling me for updates!  The scripts are a huge accomplishment, and I'm excited to share some more good news soon.  Things ARE starting to pick up momentum....

   - Travis

Well, we still have our crowd funding drive in place if you want to be part of our direct support group.  I know the page is a little dated, and to be blunt - it's because we really needed to pull back and focus on our core mission (over the last several months - creating great scripts).

Moving forward - you're going to see more updates from us, and more 'calls to action.'  Those will include opportunities to participate on set, requests to share our links and accomplishments with your family and friends, and a rally for moral support.  What we're facing is insurmountable.  What we're doing has never been done.  It's impossible.  But we're going to do it.   How you get involved is up to you!  There are plenty of levels to support the project, and we look forward to working with you....

Ha!  Nicely done!  Yes, yes I will.  A script is truly never *done* - and beatings work will continue until we get to Production.  

For those that don't get it - I've been known to sit in a specific chair at a local watering hole and mutter to myself while scribbling notes on scripts, character development sheets and indexes .  Our Florida Hometown Forum might have even met once or twice to discuss the finer points of the storyline.  Yea-Right - we should meet at the aforementioned 'watering hole' to discuss, uh, character development and stuff - soon......

Yes you did - thank you!!  

All contributions go directly to the project, and at this stage - that's incredibly important.  We have no investors, and we have no corporate/sponsor financial support.  We just have you (our fans) and a producer who's willing to work insane hours each week to fund the project.  I can't tell you how much I appreciate everything you guys are doing!

Thank you!  

My initial role on the project (before the hostile take-over) was weapon-master/technical advisor.  In spite of a lot of challenges on the project, I'd like to think we got the gear porn right .  I actually used a few thousand blanks in the shoot-out scenes.  Everything you saw was 'live fire' (no special effects), and the car crash was absolutely real (and I have the bruises/stuntman credentials to prove it!).  We actually fired live rounds for a lot of the scenes in the final battle.  I think our technical accuracy was solid if nothing else!  Just wait until you see what we're doing with Lights Out .  I have an entire team of weaponmasters working right now with sponsors, and things are going very well.....

Let me know!  I'm hoping to get in a creative mood with the third script either tonight or tomorrow night in my usual seat at the bar.  For those that don't know - a lot of ideas incorporated into the script have originated at the bar of a certain pizza place on Sanibel Island FL .  

My bicycle is in the shop, so I'm in a walking state of mind.  No big deal.  I could use the exercise!

I have over 100 backpacks and messenger bags in stock, so let me know what you want.  I don't have anything significant from 5.11's covert line, and unfortunately - just placed a huge order (so wasn't going to make another order in the near future).  I'm always happy to see what I can do, though!  Did I mention I have a LOT of backpacks?  My entire gym/armory is full from floor to ceiling right now with 5.11 boxes.....

That's awesome, That car crash looked violent
I think it was very realistic in terms of the muzzle flashes which I enjoyed.

I can't wait to see what you do with Lights Out!
