Hello all. The Calgary Comic and Entertainment expo is now over, and it was a pretty unsuccessful year for us.. but whatever.. the good parts were being able to see some of our amazing friends, and some people we hardly ever get to hang out with. You people are amazing. We made a neat-o little film for the Expo's 48 hour film competition thing, that they didn't even show. But you can see it here right now!!
https://youtu.be/p6BDIT98gww





Starring as the sister in that film was the lovely and talented Jorgie Krygier-Paine who will be the star of our upcoming film 'Imitative Magic' that begins shooting this summer. Beefart and Cheenkaw have gone missing, right in the middle of a bizarre string of strange ritual like killings, and the only person who seems to be willing to do anything about it is official card carrying Beefart and Cheenkaw fan club member Cadence, who, along with bicycle riding postal carrier Bert, try to solve the mysteries that are unfolding in Calgary. Basically it's the first ever SC Entertainment love story.

Sounds awesome right? If you want to help out, please think about a small donation!

In other news, a brand new fukachuk egg machine record that I have been working on is going to be released on May 2nd. The record is called Patterns and I just heard the whole thing finished from start to end last night for the first time. It would seem as though I was far more depressed when I wrote this album then I first even thought, but that's okay.. I'm feeling a lot better now and out of it came something that is pretty astounding. Possibly the most gut churning record I have done since Looking for Lizards in 2009. So basically when it comes out, download it and listen to it.. it would mean a lot to me.

Here is the first track from that record.. check it out:
https://youtu.be/FdGNll7B1xU



You can join a facebook event for the album release and get a link for a free download as soon as the record comes out.

I will bug you all again soon when the record comes out.. and don't forget to pledge your support for Imitative Magic!

Take care,

Love Blaise

Imitative Magic and Calgary Expo!

Hello! We are going to be shooting a brand new feature length film this summer called 'Imitative Magic' and it is going to be crazy rad. Our local heroes and super crime fighting monster hunters, Detectives Beefart and Cheenkaw have gone missing, right in the middle of a bizarre murder spree! And the Beefart and Cheenkaw appreciation society reacts in various ways. Some think there is nothing they can do, but one girl, Cadence isn't going to let her idols be lost who knows where while people in the city are being murdered! She takes it upon herself to find out what happened. Meanwhile, the postal worker who delivers all her Beefart and Cheenkaw fan girl stuff she buys from the internet ends up as her willing partner. The film is about how these two people become very close friends while solving this bizarre investigation! There is Egyptian Gods! Retirement homes! The Mosquito! Sleazy Fan Fiction! Basically, it will be the greatest supernatural horror comedy heart string puller of all time. And I would love it if you would help us out.
Please check out our indiegogo campaign page and read through it, and watch the video. I think you may be compelled to give us tons of money... and if you can't do it, at least please share the link to the page with people you know.

Calgary Comic and Entertainment Expo 2015

2010

2011

2013

2012

This will be SC Entertainment's 6th year at the expo, and I hope it will be the most exciting so far. Please come by our table if you get a chance, and if you want to you can pick up some beautiful SC DVDs to complete your collection. New things this year will include the SC Entertainment Holiday Special DVD, as well as my graphic novel THE NANDI BEAR TENANTS!

2014

I will also be promoting the exciting new film that will be shot this summer 'Imitative Magic!' I am hard at work on a new script for this very exciting project. I had everything mostly done and ready to go when I realized I wasn't into it.. so I started again from scratch, and this time it is phenomenal! I will be looking to fill some important leading roles, and I will hopefully start some kind of
crowd funding campaign in which I will beg everyone I know for money... but more about that later. Come down to expo and ask me all these questions! More info on the expo: http://www.calgaryexpo.com/

New fukachuk egg machine song

Please check it out here:

From an upcoming album that is in production now. It's a big deal.

New SC Film in early stages.

Embarrassingly, I haven't shot a proper feature length film since 2012. The good news is that since then I did piles of short films and a wildly popular animated series. But it is time once again for a new SC feature. I am now in the early stages of writing the script for this new movie, and I plan on shooting it this summer.. on weekends... for cheap. The traditional SC style. The film is called (at least for now) Imitative Magic. And isn't really like any film I have ever made. It follows the lives of 6 young people over the course of 5 days. They are all members of an internet message board / chat room for people in Calgary who are obsessed with the two Calgary paranormal investigators Beefart and Cheenkaw. The film isn't about Beefart and Cheenkaw though.. it's about these 6 people. Anyway, I've been working on it for a couple months now and I'm pretty excited about the whole thing. I will probably start up some sort of indiegogo campaign to raise money to help fund it.. but I think I will wait until the Calgary Entertainment Expo before I get that going. I will be looking for a bunch of actors for this one as well.. people who will be available on weekends this summer. I will get into all that later. Anyway, that's what I have been working on.

Rubicon! And Other Things..

A new short SC Entertainment film written and Directed by the ultra cool Sue Kenyon, and filmed and put together by me is now available to enjoy on-line! Step into a dystopian future, where an underground group of freedom fighting hackers are doing what they can to cripple an oppressive government! RUBICON: Starring Jenelle Walsh, David Luecke, Ashley Spinella and a ton of others. With special musical guests Tekhnotron, and twitch.

Watch it here: http://youtu.be/k74LqbrINdw


Also available to watch on it's own, originally included on the SC Entertainment Holiday Special, but a fine short film in it's own right... THE MOSQUITO! The further adventures of 'The Mosquito' take her into the mind of Albert Such, where she learns a terrible secret about a maniac who has been stealing people's memories. Will she be able to solve this mystery, and in turn find out about her own missing past? Starring Paige Morrison, Duffy Cheng, and Lee Hicks.

Check it out here: http://youtu.be/EZtgdDoFf20

New Fukachuk Egg Machine Website

In hopes that it will help people fall madly, obsessively and dangerously in love with my life's work, I have redesigned the entire fukachuk egg machine website. Spend hours learning about all 30 (so far) albums that I have released over the last 16 years, listen to ALL the music, even download it to play over and over again on your ipod, read almost all the lyrics and see behind the scenes photos, and read about the meanings of the records. As well as all the fukachuk egg machine movies, videos, many live performances, and other unexplainable things I have done over the years.

It is my hope that more people become obsessed with the things I have done over the years.. because if I'm the only one who cares, then it simply means I am psychotic.. but if there is lots of people who care, then I am a genius. You can see the obvious choice.

I am posting the films in chronological order, and starting with 1992's epic breakthrough murder fest that we made at the tender ages of about 16 years old... Bo-Bo - The Halloween Massacre, and it will just get better from there.

Previously Unavailable Fukachuk Egg Machine Records

Uploaded to the fukachuk egg machine page and now available for free download are three EPs that were previously unavailable. There is some pretty great music on them that you may want to listen to with your friends.

Return of the Lizard Girl - Digging in the Dirt (March 2009)
This was a special EP made for some sort of club night as a giveaway. It includes a couple special mixes of some songs from the Looking for Lizards album, as well as some outtake songs, and some brand new tracks. I also put a live version of Return of the Lizard Girl on there. A lot of it sounds similar to the style of the Looking for Lizards records, which I consider to probably be some of the best music I ever made.. so check it out.



Filled With Animals (November 2008)
This is eight songs that were made as a reaction to a pretty strange year, it was mostly therapeutic, but out of it came some pretty unique, sad and creepy music. It would lead to me making the Looking for Lizards records.


Telling Some Stories (September 2008)
Five songs that were made for a friend as a gift. Available to the public for the first time. I think enough time has past that these songs allowed to visit other people now. These were made during the recording of the Bear inside a Box album, they are similar to those tracks, but they kind of really have their own thing going on.

Shooting starts soon for SC Holiday Special!

Every weekend until Christmas has been booked with non stop power packed SC filming action for the amazing SC Entertainment Holiday Special! It is going to involve a ton of short films, some musical interludes and other ridiculous surprises.. it may come across as more of a Halloween special with the amount of horror themed films that will be in it.. but it matters not.. that's how SC Entertainment rolls.. and you are gonna love it. Starring SC superstars like Blaise Kolodychuk, Terence Ramsay, Johnny Auchie, Paige Morrison, Rene Gonzalez, Suzie Kenyon, Lee Hicks, and many more! I will be very tired and grumpy by December from lack of any time off whatsoever.. but it will all be worth it when you and your family (16+) have a new holiday tradition.

Terence Ramsay will reprise his role as THE APE DOCTOR in an upcoming short film 'Cidra The Time Traveling Barbarian'

The Electric Oinks Live

For those of you fortunate enough to miss the Electric Oinks playing live the other day.. you can now unfortunately watch the whole show online. Good luck.

The Nandi Bear Tenants

So I spent this summer making this Comic / Graphic Novel. I'm not sure what the difference is. If it is length, then my comic is at least twice as long as a regular comic.. so it is probably a graphic novel.. I have been

calling it a book, because it makes me feel more swanky. Anyway, it was a lot of hard and completely fun and worthwhile work, and in the end I had a indiegogo campaign that funded me getting this thing printed like a beautiful thing.. anyway.. it's ready and done, and printed and available in various ways. (I am probably going to have it in the local comic shops in Calgary, Vancouver and somewhere on the island as well.. I will keep you updated on that.)

The story is pretty exciting, and here is the pitch that I got on the back cover:

Naiad Bear needs to gather all her friends for a mission to save not one but two planets from total destruction! When she inherits an old creepy haunted mansion from her long lost Aunt Nandi, she is given a message from the other side.. a message that the king of the Cat planet has gone totally insane and plans to wage an intergalactic war against Mars. Seriously, what has Mars ever done to him? And why is he being such a freak? Naiad along with her superhero friends Dorriss Doom, Stensor, and Pattee may be the only one who could possibly help to unravel this supernatural mystery! Meanwhile, the renegade

adventurer and hero for hire Veltrax the Wolvcha is busy saving Klor, the last giant amoeba in the universe from certain death! How does it all fit together? And who is behind all this diabolical terror?!

Sounds pretty good right? So good that you wanna read it right??!

Here's how.. you go over to amazon.com and just buy it.. it will come to your house, and then you can read it and love it and basically keep it as a family heirloom:
http://amzn.com/150036570X

Alternately you can get a signed copy directly from me by buying it at the SC Entertainment store:

I made a record of old cowboy songs.

There isn't much more to say about it. I liked making it, it was fun.. and it's funny. I learned a lot about old time cowboys while making it, and I guess that's the point. I was inspired when I was hanging out at an old folks home a while back and there were a couple people there putting on a concert, singing old songs.. one of the songs they sang was comanche, and I got pretty excited. I was thinking about if and when me and people my age eventually end up in an old folks homes years and years from now.. will there be like 'Tuesday at 2:00 after lunch, industrial noise music with Grandpa Kolodychuk'... because just because you get old, it doesn't mean that you will change the type of music you like to listen to and make. Anyway, I like lots of things.. and this record was fun.

Happy 31st Anniversary SC Entertainment

Today is the day! 31 years! Holy god! I remember when I turned 31, my friend Sue gave me a pair of grown up looking trousers. I wore them for grown up seeming things, but most of the time I just wore my ripped up old way too tight black jeans. Absolutely nothing has changed, except I promised myself I would never ever again be in a situation where I couldn't wear jeans. It limits my work choices, but makes me happy. It's kind of the same as SC in every way.. we do stuff that isn't necessarily accepted by the mass public, but it makes us happy.. it also limits how many people see and hear the things we do. I'm not sure if I would want to do something that appeals to such a broad range of people that I would make a lot of money from it. Maybe I would.. who knows.. theres a lot of quality stuff I like that appeals to the masses. Doctor Who still makes me feel weird.. it used to be like I was part of a special club or something for the tiny amount of Canadians that obsessed over doctor who... but now it's a worldwide phenomenon.. how the hell did that happen? But I still love it.. at the same time though, it is different than it was when I was a kid on various levels... hold on.. why did this turn into a post about Doctor Who? Anyway SC! If SC Entertainment has taught me anything, it's that I have very few friends, but I have piles and piles of people that would drop whatever they are doing to help me make a movie or something.. I live a strange life where most of my social interactions with the world revolve around if I have a good idea for a film or not.

I am getting off topic again.. though I don't know what the topic is.. so it's fine. I don't have anything planned to do today.. it's a bit weird. I will probably see Terence this weekend to make a short film (Another weird SC thing where I don't really understand how people work, but I know if I like someone I will make them something.) I have huge plans for this fall that I hope will turn out well.. I need to write like 10 scripts, and start pre production on a ton of things... I have spent all week recording a rather bizarre album that I hope you will all listen to. I wanted to have it done today, but it's not.. so I will just release it when it is. I spent the summer drawing a comic, a rather astonishing comic that I am very proud of.. a ton of people gave me money so I could get it printed properly, and now it is on it's way to me somewhere.. I am terribly excited, and makes me realize that 31 years ago when me and Terry were sitting around as 7 year old kids drawing comics and having fun.. that we are basically the same today, and the same principals that we founded SC on.. that of making the thing you want, with little to no money, to make you and your friends happy and get the chance to tell stories and invent worlds.. all that is the same. And so many hundreds of people have joined us over the years, and made things with us, and for us, it makes me very proud that this is the life I chose for myself.. I'm going (gone) over to the last half of the time I get to spend on Earth. No regrets.. not about SC.. thats for sure. We make interesting things, and we do it for the right reasons. And it's okay if not many people ever get to know about it, because who knows... time will tell. It's important stuff either way. Thank you to every single one of you who ever helped us to make this tiny TINY part of the universe slightly more exciting.

Things you can do to celebrate!

Please help 'The Nandi Bear Tenants'

I need your help to get a comic published, it's called 'The Nandi Bear Tenants' and I would love it if you could either help with money, or share my campaign with everyone you know (Including all your rich Uncles and Aunts!)

Please take the time to check it out here: http://igg.me/at/nandi

You will basically be getting a beautiful book if you help to fund it... it's kind of like going to Chapters, but more awesome.

I am hand drawing every page and colouring it with watercolour paints. I am scanning the finished pages and doing the text on my computer (Using a font I made myself.) The whole story is 50 pages long, and I anticipate it will take me until the end of August to make it all. All together I plan on it being a 56 page book. I want to get it printed properly and will be going through createspace to get that done, as they have reasonable prices and also have your book for sale on amazon.com and make it available to librarys and schools. The money I am trying to get will go towards the printing of 100 copies of the comic. I will use these copies to give to the people who funded the project and also have some to give away and sell at comic conventions.

Alternately, if you are freaking rich, go ahead and give me some money. This one took a year of writing and recording. Not every day or anything.. but it has a lot of the last year of my life in it. I like it a lot, and I plan to make a ton of videos for these songs.. I may even start shooting some things today. I have asked the beautiful and talented Elaine Boyling to write and direct every video.. who knows if she will, but it might be cool. Anyway.. go download my bloody record, I worked hard on this thing!!


Update:
The first video was written, produced and directed by Emmilia Taylor, Elaine Boyling and Blaise Kolodychuk. Check it out here:
