Happy New Year! 2010 is the dawn of a new decade, a new decade of great productivity and advances to all in the journey known as life. Rebel Rude has set its palette full wrapping up post production on the epic supernatural film noir The Midnight Eye, with an expected debut summer 2010. But first up, hitting the festivals is the recently completed short comedy Not At All And All At Once, a tale of the irony of wasted time with a shock twist ending. Look for it in the spring of 2010. Also in the spring tearing up the festivals will be the director’s cut of the detective mystery Final Bell. The film, made for the 48 Hour Film Project, tells the story of the death of a boxer who dies in the ring and the aftermath spider-web investigation that follows. Look for the cut as it was meant to be seen this spring. With a triple hitter that season, Rebel Rude rolls out the instructional/educational DVD Kadan Martial Arts: PaManna Eskrima. Rebel Rude is also currently in development of several feature films, as well as an animated series slated to start production this fall.
