Want to know what's going on with Shane Felux, Producer / Director of Star Wars "Revelations", "Pitching Lucas" & "Trenches" ? Then this is the place to be.
See what's going on in my world from the next project, the adventures it brings, and the basic rantings of Shane.
I will try to be gentle.
This is just to damn cool for me and I can not help but be giddy.
You have to understand Star Wars and LucasFilm is like a kinship to me. They are amazing people and I am just stunned at their kind support! Check it out!!
I have now had one of my films on a star wars trading card, won the George Lucas Select Award, been to Skywalker Ranch, ILM, and now on the cover home page of Starwars.com. Wow.. heaven.
This makes me smile so big as LucasFilm and Star Wars itself is what inspired me to make my first film, even as an 8 year old child to set my dream in films.
And because I am on my blog I can post the unaltered pic of me on set with the LucasFilm cap (LA Times took out the logo) as I always shoot in a LucasFilm cap.
Also another great Star Wars plug comes from TheForce.net .. my old stomping grounds, and still old haunt of friends and fans. Always a fan still a fan. Check out the article here: New Trenches Online Series Coming Soon

To all friends and family let me say Happy New Year! Hopefully everyone had a happy and safe event. We are hoping for the very best of 2010 as '09 was a rough one.
(I thought Hello Kitty would make things better and give you a smile to start the year. )
Right, so on to important things
Starting off, I had hoped the New Year would reveal some good news from the Spec Doritos Super Bowl Commercial we completed in October, but it was not to be I am afraid. Sorry gang. In fact I was pretty surprised out of the 4000+ entries on what Frito Lay picked as the 6 finalists. Go check out the picked finalists yourself and congrats to those who made it!
I have to say I am very proud of what our cast and crew created and thank all of them for what we did with such a low budget. Thanks to all the friends and supporters. We gave it out best!
You can check out the commercial from here:
