I just started the Official Scott Norman Actor Blog last week, and my first post is about my experience shooting the dieselpunk influenced short war film called "The Wars of Other Men".

The film was tremendous labor of love for all involved, and was a lot of fun to work on. Now we can finally say it's complete. It's been getting quite a bit of attention and support recently, particularly in the Steampunk and Dieselpunk communities.

And, if you decide to kick in a couple of bucks to the project, you’ll not only be a part of something really special, but you will make a group of filmmakers in Detroit very happy.
