Fifteen Years Later

Amazing how time flies. Collective Noun Filmworks' last film was in 2009. It is 2026. Obviously, we don't really do this much anymore. I'm surprised this blog still exists, what with Google's kink of closing their products, but I'm glad it's still here. A record of what we made, and the memories that come with it. I hope this stays here forever.

We have pretty much all gone our separate ways, though we still see or hear from each other from time to time. We've gone off and had families or worked on our own projects. In awesome news, Jim won an Emmy award! I'd glad one of us stayed in this crazy film-making world.

All of the films were given some AI upscaling to HD and are on YouTube. There are also 3D versions that I made to use with my VR headset. It was an opportunity to revisit these films and smile at the silliness that we committed to video.

If you were a part of this nonsense back in the day, thank you. I think back to this time fondly and hope you do too.
