Blights final missing adventure? Help support “Lencho”, & Some thoughts about the week.

June 29, 2009

Greetings and salutations,

This post marks the final episode in this chapter of Blights “Missing Adventures”, I will be posting other comic strips, its just that Blight the Clown will be taking a break from the internet to work on his book. Also, check out the trailers for my friends movie, “Lencho”, he has been kicking ass on it for several months now and it should prove to be pretty fantastic. He is having a bit of a fundraiser for the movie in a few days so he can try and pay some of his crew. Details are posted in the blog.

The film El Regreso de Lencho (in English it’s The Return of Lencho). It was shot on 16mm film on location in Guatemala in late 2008 (there is also an animated part to the film). It is currently in post production. It’s a Spanish language film about a character named Lencho who uses street art to organize Guatemalan youth–now targeted by the police as insurgents–to express their social justice and human rights concerns in an increasingly corrupt and violent Guatemala. It promotes graffiti art and human rights in a globalized third world.

:::THOUGHTS ON THE WEEK:::

There must be something in the air, the past few weeks have been filled with celebrity death. First David Carradine and his fantastically shocking yet sudden death, then Ed Mcmahon, I guess we saw this one coming, he was old and sick, but sad none-the-less. Then Farrah Fawcett, again sad, but a very public documentary about her cancer prepaired us for it. Then Michael Jackson, I guess this is the one that got to me the most, very tragic and unexpected, just on the verge of a comeback tour, trying to get back on his feet after a very public stoning by a hypocritical society. In his case, I wonder what ever happened to innocent until proven guilty. No matter if you love or hate the guy, he had a huge impact on most anybody that grew up in the 80’s. He took music videos to a level that blew peoples minds, I can remember watching the video of the making of Thriller, it was my first glips behind the scenes into the world of filmmaking. Then he bridged the gap between video games and music with an amazing title for the Sega Genesis called Moonwalker, a game where you defeated the bad-guys by dancing! I even remember how the world came to a stop and everyone turned their televisions on at the same time to watch the premiere of his video for “Black & White”.  Michael Jackson even introduced me to one of my all time favorite artists, when Weird Al did the song “Eat It”, that changed my life forever. So it is with a sad heart that I mourn the death of a brilliant artist. Then all-of-the-sudden, I find out that the infomercial guy Billy Mays died this morning. Now, even though it is always sad when someone dies, before last week, I don’t think his death would of personally effected me in anyway, BUT I saw him on Conan O’brien, and for the first time enjoyed his non-salesman personality, he actually made a really funny segment with Conan, and I thought I might even try watching his new television series “Pitchmen”, but I guess it was not meant to be. Such an odd week. Below is a youtube video response to Michael Jackson’s death that seems appropriate to describe the hypocrisy of the public.

Michael Jackson is Dead

This Week: TOTS LIVE!!! A Life Story, and a TOTS Music Video!

October 27, 2008

Well, well, well,

It’s a new week, lets see what the Blight Blog has in-store for you good folks.

Well, only 2 days until you crazy die hard fans journey all the way to New York City to see your favorite band, “THINGS OUTSIDE THE SKIN“, perform live for the first time in over a year!  I dug out a crazy comic strip from a few years back, because none of you have ever seen it!  I posted an old TOTS music video, just to remind you of what you all will be experiencing this Wednesday.  And of course, some special Halloween Youtube madness.

-LIFE STORIES #1-

So you might notice, there is no Blight the Clown comic this week.  I have to apologize for that, but I was dragged out of town for a film festival and reunion style thingy.

Last week, I posted on the blog a short film that I shot and co-edited featuring 5 year old kids called, “MacBeth“.  Well, to my surprise it got selected for a film festival last Friday and WON!!!  After 10 years it gets screened and actually works.  That was a pretty cool experience.

I also had to accompany the little lady, some of you folks might know as, “MY RED BALLOON PAL”, to her 10 year college reunion.  Boy oh boy, was that an exciting shindig!

But the real reason that there is no Blight the Clown comic this week is because I have been busting my ass editing a special fun filled horrific horror movie montage to project at Wednesdays, “THINGS OUTSIDE THE SKIN” Spooktacular Halloween Concert!

DON’T FORGET!!!

ONLY 2 MORE DAYS!!!!!!

THINGS OUTSIDE THE SKIN (Featuring Blight the Clown)
OCTOBER 29th 2008

-ANOTHER DEAD COMEDIAN-

This is an older music video I made for my band a few years ago.  You can hear my bass in the music, but you don’t see me.  This is because I was behind the camera.  Sorry, next TOTS video I make, I promise will have Blight the Clown in it!

:::YOUTUBE MADNESS:::

Lastly, I will leave you all with an old classic Youtube video, in good Halloween fun.

Your Pal,
Blight the Clown
