This piece is a precursor to the following audio adaptation of the story arc, Sea of Dead Faces, in Nathan Ritter's comic series, Doctor What:

The Doctor takes Charlie back in time to the High Renaissance to witness the most highly cultured period of art in history only to find that the artists of the era have been abducted. The Doctor and Charlie travel forward in time to find that the High Renaissance artists were not the only ones abducted but every world-renowned artist from then on. The world Charlie once knew is now a world of dead-eyed, passionless creatures. Having traveled so far into the future, he and The Doctor are now trapped into an alternate timeline until they have righted what was wronged.

Cast in Order of Appearance (on the Machine) Brandon Lee as Michael, Nathan's Father Morgan Lea as Emily, Avid Doctor What Reader Danielle McRae as Lindsay, Nathan's Mother Chris Tout as Russell Pickering, Nathan's Editor Jackie Cross as Jacqueline, Nathan's Sister

Of Trailers and Supplemental Material

Greetings and Salutations!  Morgan here.  I know it looks like we've dropped off the face of the earth, but I promise you, we haven't.  We're working as hard as we can on The Endless Reckoning, but it's proven to be especially difficult with both Cody and I being in school.  Here is what I can report on:

First of all, and I don't know how okay Cody is with me saying this, but we are looking to purchase the camera we are looking to film The Endless Reckoning on, regardless of the lack of funding we received with our first Indiegogo campaign.  No guarantees on WHEN the camera will be purchased, but it will be in the near future, so the quality of our work is likely going to go up from there.

Secondly, our second teaser trailer, while it is 90% filmed and edited, is still not ready to be released.  Completing The Endless' costume has taken longer than I had anticipated, and so I have not had the chance to put my actor in the costume to green screen him for the final shots of the trailer.  You can catch some of the trailer's footage here.

Next is the question of Doctor How.  I've completed editing on the first three clips out of what I believe will be a full ten to comprise the second episode.  I hope to release the first clip on Sunday/Monday and release a proper release schedule with it.  Stay tuned for that.

Finally, The Sea of Dead Faces.  Unfortunately, the trailer for this project is taking far longer than I would like to admit.  Just to put it in perspective, I've had all of the lines save for one character's ready to go back in July.  So...here's to hoping within the next two weeks I can release the trailer so I can get the ball rolling on the official project.

I hope to be putting up a vlog update as well soon, but I've been under the weather, so I figured this was the next best thing.  Look out for more updates soon!

The final few lines of Doctor What: The Sea of Dead Faces' first episode!  Fingers crossed that I'll be able to get a trailer released within the next week or two!

Also, major apologies for the delay in updates.  There will be a vlog detailing the situation sometime very soon.

All right. I’m in need of a little musical help. I am looking to cover a song for Doctor Who: The Endless Reckoning, but my own instrumental skills are sort of, bluntly put, lacking. Therefore, I am looking for someone to assist in putting together an instrumental track of the piece I want to...

Another sneak preview of Doctor How, Episode 2.  Morgan's on her way to Austin, but trouble appears to be afoot.

Cody's been having fun with Emily as a honey badger.

Preview of some of the promotional shots taken this summer.

[endlessreckoning-blog-blog]

Cody whipped this up in Flash last night a while after we'd discussed what animals best represented The Doctor and Emily.  We settled on an owl for the Doctor, as they are "the nerds of the forest," and a honey badger for Emily because she just doesn't give a shit.  Enjoy the silliness!

Doctor How: Episode 2 Teaser Trailer

[endlessreckoning-blog-blog]

Part of the promotional material for Doctor Who: The Endless Reckoning!  The first episode, complete with special effects by Cody, of Doctor How!

[endlessreckoning-blog-blog]

Not necessarily related to the Endless Reckoning, but Cody made this based on one of our many late night phone conversations.  Enjoy!

Oh, man, I JUST found this.  The very, very first sketch I did of the Doctor.  This was done within hours of the story’s conception, and it was just a really quick sketch done to remind myself of the idea.  As you can see, it was before I even thought of putting the carrot in his hat, which was an entire costume piece that I ended up cutting.  So actually, this is a little closer to what you’re probably used to now, sans the fedora.  I guess that goes to show you that sometimes you should stick with your gut.

This was a preliminary sketch I did of the Doctor upon my first conception of the guy.  Totally different than what he looks like now, huh?  I put a carrot in his hat because his face was inspired by a horse.

[endlessreckoning-blog-blog]

He does look kinda horse-like, huh?

At the suggestion of my editor, I’ve decided to start up this account to interact with my fans. I don’t know if this will work out, or even if I’ll be able to update regularly since I’m usually really busy, but y’know, it’s the effort that counts.

So yeah, if you’re here, I’m assuming you already...

Nate's finally gotten a tumblr!  Woo!
