“Ambition” to Continue “Road to Revolution.”
The script for “Ambition,” Chapter 4 has been greenlit today!
With that being said, we have launched the campaign to fund CHAPTER 4!
With three Chapters finished, we are just one episode away from completing this first 4-part mini-series on The Road to Revolution.
This episode is highly anticipated as it will pick up where “Chapter 3″ left off. If you haven’t seen Chapters 1-3, you can view them HERE!

Production Update — Episode #3
We put out the word on pre-production for our first episode 3 meeting yesterday, and the Hawk’s Head Tavern was nearly full of the Colony Bay crew, anxious to weigh in on the next episode, “A Snake in the Garden.”
I don’t believe in writing by committee, but one of the most gratifying things about this team is their passion for story, so I wrote a “plot points” outline and they all gave me some great finishing ideas for increasing tension and deepening our investment in character. Continue Reading »
