After months of hard work (too many at this point to count), the Next Episode site is now online in all its glory.
I have many people to thank, but particularly Cindy Bird of Media3 Group for the beautiful design and the bulk of the programming, as well as Matt Drollinger from Smart Interactive Media for help with final coding.
I'm excited to be able to finally show off our work, as well as what we're capable of doing. I can only hope you'll find what's inside as rewarding to watch as it was for us to make.
Here's to a kicking off the decade with a bang.
Now let's find out what's on Next...

My First Blog Post EVER
That's right. You read correctly. I have never posted a blog before in my life.
Ok... I've never posted my *own* blog before. I've written a few over at doorQ, but this is the first for me, and the first for Next Episode. I suppose there's a first time for everything, eh?
In truth, I'm not totally on board with the whole blogging thing. I absolutely refuse to support the idea of bloggers supplanting traditional journalists. Journalism is not without its problems (particularly in the popular television media), but professional writing should be done by professionals, not every schlub with a laptop.
But I'll jump down off my soapbox by saying that I do believe that blogs are critical to maintain communication between business and the market. For small companies run by a few individuals, they are even more important.
So it's with that in mind that this blog will maintain a professional presence with a personal touch, just as I intend to do with this company. Whether you are a client, or a client's client, in the end you are all our audience. And without an audience, the show can't possibly go on.

About this blog
Shiprock Pictures is the blog of scriptwriter Daniel Greeney, who founded his production company Next Episode Entertainment in 2010. Daniel specializes in writing scripts with a focus on cinematic, serial storytelling for the web, TV, and film.
Currently based in Chicago, Daniel maintains clients and affiliates in Milwaukee, Los Angeles, and elsewhere on the East, West, and Fourth Coasts. He recently completed an MFA in Screenwriting from DePaul University, a marginally harrowing experience he'll likely attempt to avoid talking about (but give him enough whisky and he'll open up.)
