Happy Holidays from DIAF

Hello, once again!


It's been almost 3 months since my last post (fuck!) truth is a lot of things have happened to me during this time so there isn't much "DIAF" stuff to write about. Between work and other mishaps, there hasn't been much development for us.


But, what I did manage to do is the annual Christmas Card. Hand-drawn and colored (through the magic of photoshop) by yours truly (ME).


So, without further ado, I give you 2010's Xmas Card by DIAF.

DIAF Update!

Man, it's been a long hiatus!

I apologize to all of you, but I've been extremely busy. Let me make this short. You're gonna get more DIAF related stuff for the rest of the year! (I'm sort of on an extended vacation... LOL) and to start things off, I give you... A NEW VIDEO!

I shot this last Thursday at Xploration (it's kind of like a pseudo-theme park in Rosarito, B.C. in Baja Studios). It's one of my first "director-for-hire" works. Hope you enjoy it. We had no budget, no equipment, in other words, NOTHING! But I think it worked out okay.



Keep you posted!

Official DIAF Soundtracks ONLINE! (UPDATED)

Hello, once again!

In addition to the account at purevolume.com, I am proud to announce a new site in which you can listen to all of my short-films' original score for FREE! I'd like to say that I knew nothing about music when I first started (DIAF's The Man Kills - 2006), and I still don't know sh*t about music, but I think I've gotten a lot better.

"DIAF's The Man Kills" OST, "The F*cked-up B-movie Mash-up Experience!" (a.k.a Doble Personalidad 1.5.1) OST & "The Even-more F*cked-up B-movie Mash-up Experience!" (a.k.a Doble Personalidad 1.5.2) are now available. Expect more OST soon!

"The Even-More F*cked-up B-movie Mash-up Experience!" pt. 1

Hello, faithful readers!

It's been a while since I've posted any new stuff. Today I make an exception! Now, I've posted that I was working on something new quite a lot recently and that is true. That's right! A SEQUEL! And not just any sequel. Are you ready? That's right! A sequel to my b-movie mash-up short-film "The F*cked-up B-movie Mash-up Experience!" which I have aptly named "The Even-more F*cked-up B-movie Mash-up Experience!" (a.k.a "Doble Personalidad 1.5.2"). Right now we're still in the raw stages of production, but for now I'll leave you the poster!

Enjoy!

**UPDATED: This Saturday (April 17th), I'll make an appearance on channel 27 PSN-Tu Super estacion (via cable - Baja California ONLY)or online @ http://www.psntv.info/ at 12:00pm NOON & I'll be discussing "The Even-more F*cked-up B-movie Mash-up Experience!".

BTH stuff!

A lot of people complained about how "BTH" & "BTH2: The Gathering" are only available during Halloween. So, I've decided to make them available all-year long. Starting tonight. Look for them at http://youtube.com/diafdirector

Enjoy.

Student Short-films pt. 5!

Hello, once again!

As I promised before, here's "The F*cked-up B-movie Mash-up Experience!".

A parallel story for "Doble Personalidad" (a "short-film" by Emmanuel Contreras Vazquez).

Jaime/Herman is a "killer" with "double personality", one day he is sitting in his lair watching television when he suddenly sees some Steven Ballmer conference footage whilst browsing through channels. He becomes so enraged with the CEO of "Microshit" that he makes it his mission to shoot him and his garbage can.



Enjoy!

Student Short-films pt. 4

"The F*cked-up B-movie Mash-up Experience!" is the unofficial parallel short-film to the hilarious "short" made by a dude named Emmanuel Contreras (and he's actually in this too).

This short-film is a mixture of my favorite bad B-movie scenes. Well, 2 of them actually. Basically it's what makes me laugh most of the time.

The project is not finished yet, still some few tweaks to do. But, here's the trailer! Enjoy!

What's cookin' for 2010!

Hello, readers!

Happy New Year and blah-blah. After last year's project absence, I write this little post to announce this year's projects. I may not be able to do all of them, but they're what I'll be working on or start working on all-along 2010.

1) "La Araña" [Working Title]: Can't say a lot of this 'cause I want all of you to be surprised, but I've got a good feeling about it. All I can say is that I didn't write it (just made a few DIAF tweaks to the script), but I'll direct-produce-edit the short-film. Looking for a 2010 summer release. Here's some concept art!



2) "The Beach-Party/Road-trip Massacre" [Working Title]: Again, won't say much about this one, 'cause I wanna surprise y'all again. My return to trashy-exploitation-horror-short-film-making. Looking for a summer shoot & Halloween release. And as a late X-mas/New Year's gift, I give you (drum-roll) the teaser poster.



3) "No Time Tolouse!" [Remake]: This one I can tell about. Turns out during August last year I wrote a little comedy with some dudes, but another one ended up directing. After all this time this short-film hasn't seen the light of day, so, I decided to remake it according to my original vision, this time with yours truly in the director's chair. The short-film tells the tale of Donnie, a hungover dude and lame big brother, trying to pic his sister up from school in time but being delayed by hilarious situations. A tribute to classic slap-stick and Monty-Python-comedy.

4) "Paranormal Thingy!": This past Saturday I finally saw "Paranormal Activity" and I didn't like it at all, truth is, I laughed all-movie-long. So, whilst I was chatting with some friends, we decided to make a parody of it. Stupid, mindless and incoherent. Made with the same style and possibly same duration. This is one for the books. I'll be writing/directing/producing and possibly appearing in this one.

Other projects (for the future) include: "No Time Tolouse II!: Conversion"; "Untitled Horror-Musical Comedy"; "Untitled 'La Araña' Prequel".

That's all from me for now.

Laters!
