Bags and Boards: The Finale (Part 1 of 4)

Hey everyone.

After a long hiatus, the Bags and Boards Finale is complete. Due to the length of the episode and the file size, it will be appearing online in four separate parts over the next week. Be sure to stay tuned for the rest of the episode here on BagsandBoards.org.

In this first part of the Season Finale entitled "All Good Things..." the annual costume party at the comic store gets under way while Steven eagerly awaits the possible arrival of Betty, who has not been in the store for two months.

Episode IV: "The Voyage Home" is Coming Next Week

Hey everyone.

I just wanted all of you to know that the long-awaited and long-delayed Bags and Boards Episode IV: "The Voyage Home" will be released online next week. I filmed the final scene last night and will have it all edited up soon.

Episode IV is very different from the rest of the episodes. Its scope and scale is much bigger, going from the comic store, to neighborhoods, to rural areas and to the Jackson Comic-Con. It also guest stars Larry Kenney, the voice of Lion-O from Thundercats, Sonny the Cocoa Puffs Bird, Count Chocula and Best Week Ever. It also features many generous vendors and showmen from the Jackson Comic-Con.

This episode has taken over a month to film. I hope the long filming process and wait pays off for all of you. Until it is released, please enjoy some stills above and below.

More Stills and Updates on Episode III

So this past week I had a somewhat tragic event befall me. I was essentially done editing the majority of the footage for Episode III when my external hard drive fell off my desk and disconnected during an editing session. As a result of this, my Episode III file was erased and a week's worth of editing was shot down the drain. Although I managed to keep all of my clips intact, select clips were damaged (see the still above), they were all knocked out of order and all of my edits were deleted. 

Because of this event, my spirits have been pretty down. However, I have re-begun the process of editing and I am getting close to where I was when all of this happened. Still, it has delayed things somewhat.

Tonight is the last night of filming for Episode III. If all goes well (i.e. if I don't get screwed over again), it should be online later this coming week. Cross your fingers.

Until then, enjoy some new stills from this past week of shooting. You get to see more of Bruce and Brenningworth, along with Cami Roebuck as a new character named Gwenith (though she isn't completely new; she appeared briefly in Episode II).

Look for Episode III here later this coming week.

First Stills from Episode III: "A New Hope"

Bags and Boards Episode III: "A New Hope" began principal production last night. We will be working on filming it for the next two weeks. Be looking online for it next week. Hope you all enjoy these stills.

Look for more updates on this episode here in the coming days.
