Exciting news! I am going to be one of the judges in the Malibu Teen Film Festival honoring the work of teens from across SoCal coming up Friday night, April 29th. If you are you a parent, teacher or friend of SoCal teens in grades 6-12, please let your favorite kids know about the fest! Short film submissions are due by March 4th. There’s still plenty of time to plan a project! For submission rules and festival info, please message me for an entry form or visit MalibuCity.org/TeenFilmFestival, FilmFreeway or the City of Malibu Parks & Recreation Department homepage. Good luck to all! (Additional film workshop days are coming up Sat. February 27th and March 5th, so let your kids know about those, as well!) I have been “friendtoring” some filmmaker kids at Chaminade HS in the Valley, and connected with an awesome teen who was making a documentary about @imaginefest2016 last year, and their talent, enthusiasm and intelligence have blown me away so far.
I’m really excited about this! #Malibu #teen #film #filmfestivals @filmfreeway (at Malibu, California)

Here’s a doodle I drew of John Lennon last year. RIP Imaginary friend! Wish I could find the pic of me posing at Strawberry Fields with my Yoko hat on. Guess I’ll have to take another one when I’m in NYC in 2 weeks. Must get back to sketching and art work in ‘16. Along with my John-inspired screenplay. It’s f*cking time. #JohnLennon #Imagine #ImaginePeace #GivePeaceAChance #InstantKarma #Beatles @yokoonoofficial @sean_ono_lennon #StrawberryFieldsForever 🙏✌🏻️🎸❤️ #goals #screenplay #screenwriting #art #sketch #illustration #doodle (at Strawberry Fields)

Culty times in the canyon seeing Jared Leto’s 30 Seconds to Mars at Camp Mars! If you told me twenty years ago, I’d get to go to summer camp with Jordan Catalano, I would have never believed you. @summercampmars @jaredleto @30secondstomars (at Malibu Creek State Park)
