Welcome!

...to the unveiling of my new blog!

I was looking for a better way to keep in touch with my friends, so I decided I would revamp my blog. I've added new pages, revised the look and the layout, plus added search and comment features. I hope you enjoy it and I would love to hear your thoughts and suggestions!

Aidan F/X New Web Series

Author: Lexi
Hi everybody!
I just finished shooting a new original web series titled AIDAN F/X, which was sponsored by my new friends at ORIGINAL SWAT in an effort to raise funds for GuideOn.org.
All the LIFTED fans will probably remember GuideOn.org, my favorite non-profit organization created by the wonderful James Clark,  supporting the children of fallen Military heroes.
I always felt sad that LIFTED couldn’t raise more money for this cause due to its limited theatrical release, so when Uriah and I reunited to collaborate on AIDAN F/X, I thought this would be a great way to shine some light on the good folks at GuideOn again.
ORIGINAL SWAT will release a really cool series of limited edition boots, with dog tags and your choice of Military branch pin, during the time AIDAN F/X airs on the web.  20% of the purchase price will go directly to GuideOn.org.
And just FYI, companies rarely donate 20% of their product purchase price, 5% and 10%  are much more common and this is after ORIGINAL SWAT has already been a longtime contributor to the famous bootcampaign.com and the GrangerSmithBootWalk. So they’re good peeps.
The AIDAN F/X shoot was by far the best experience I’ve ever had on any set. My best buddy and longtime mayhem partner Jon Barton of Tacticalmediagroup.net was the one who brought us all together and handled a million things from producing to military and airsoft consulting, rallying the troops, weapons training and supply…he was a mind-blowing  Jack of all trades like only a Marine could be.
We were lucky to cast Ray Abruzzo of Sopranos fame, Alexander Gould from WEEDS, actor and Army Ranger Tim Abell, the TMG vets, upcoming star Telana Nicole and of course my little bro’ Uriah Shelton, who managed to squeeze this shoot in just before he had to return to Miami for his show THE GLADES.
So: good show, good cause, good boots. Do us a favor and stay in touch via twitter and facebook, subscribe to our youtube channel so you don’t miss the premier of AIDAN F/X and tell all your friends  to please tune in!!!

Hello everybody!

Author: Lexi

It’s been a long time, I know.

First of, I need to thank all the people who have contacted me on Facebook, Twitter or this website and expressed their love and gratitude for LIFTED. For the longest time I thought making that movie was a mistake. Your letters have shown me it wasn’t. Thank you for that. I am especially touched by the many notes from those of you who have served, or are currently serving in the Military. You are my heroes and your approval honors me deeply.

Many of you have asked me why this movie wasn’t in the theaters. I will post that story sometime soon.

Today I want to announce something very current. The amazingly talented comedian, my friend Patton Oswalt had asked me to join him for a podcast called HOW DID THIS GET MADE, to talk about PUNISHER WARZONE before it will screen at his annual “Deeper in the Darkness” film festival at the New Beverly Theater. The folks from the podcast were super nice and although I still hate talking about PWZ, I did enjoy myself this time. You can listen to the podcast here: http://www.earwolf.com/episode/punisher-war-zone/

If you are anywhere near LA, PWZ is screening tomorrow, October 4, 2011, at 9.30 PM and there’ll be a Q&A with Patton, DP Steve Gainer and myself after. Not sure if there are any tickets left, but here’s the info:

Peace out,
Lexi
