 New gaming channel, most of this stuff will be outside of your normal FWF Pictures stream.   THANK YOU  FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER.

 For the past 2 years my son Graydon has created a character and backstory for Naughty Ladybug.  The lore is so intense that it has become a lens that he views and processes the world through. After the 300th Naughty Ladybug story we sat down and sketched out what a movie would look like. I present to you:  Naughty Ladybug #1 Danger Marks the Spot https://youtu.be/d0ZeQVIEojo?si=pBoyZ8_3-j8T16wG

Star power becomes a star curse for a collection of very vincible men.  FWF Pictures presents a Thriller short film made for the Kazoo Forty-Eight 2025  Required Elements: Mailbox, Pepper Shaker, Guy who laughs at the wrong times.  Line: "I'm pretty sure I saw that on the news!" Filmed 4/5/2025.  Completed 4/6/2025.  Released 4/24/2025 Some thoughts below... When the crew steps down, a Charlie, Eric and Graydon thing is formed.  Very proud of this Thriller created for the 2025 Kazoo Film Project.  A nice day in the woods similar to "Daddy for a Good Time" but with a bit more focus and one less child involved. I did not mean to bring a full on video game character into this but I think it was a good use of me and moved us from point A to point B quickly.  Just sad I couldn't grow out my facial hair enough in time but I made the right choice not using a fake mustache. Eric and I have been doing this for almost 20 years now, we have both gotten bett...

  Winner of nothing at the 2024 Kazoo 48 Hour Film Festival. Super proud of this one and the team that created it.  From the idea that came from Justin to the welcoming of new members Jane and Pasha, everyone was great and I'll no longer say "THIS IS THE LAST ONE" after each of these we make.   It's a few weeks later and I'm thinking more about this.  I could have done more with the camera and worked in the elements better.  Still love it. Otsego (where I'm from) had a really nice library right in the middle of town.  I spent a lot of time there as a kid but my main memory is the librarians just not liking kids.  I actually went there to read most of the time (Internet wasn't a thing till I was in middle school) and they never seemed happy someone was using the space.  Otsego had like nothing going on so they should have been thrilled someone was actually going there, maybe I had too good of a church where you actually tried to make people f...
