It will continue throughout the rest of the fall depending on scheduling, time and budget available. We hope to get the project edited and finished by the end of the year.

The documentary will also offer a hypothesis as to why Canada continually produces successful comedy icons for the world. The documentary will contain interviews with Canadian comedians, comedy club owners, actors, and psychologists. Untitled Dramatic Feature Status: Writing This currently untitled feature is a drama based in a funeral home. The main character is new to the job but is fed up with it and his situation with his wife. He meets an old ex-girlfriend and his life is thrown into chaos. Video Slideshows Status: n/a Video slideshows are approximately 20 minutes of looped video on a 2 hour tape. The video slideshows are great for use in the waiting rooms of dental offices, medical offices, Legal offices, and mechanics. The videos each contain approximately 50-100 slides with information on the office, sales, procedures, hours of business. General trivia questions are also woven into the video in order to keep the customers amused while waiting. © 2004 Black Cat Productions
