Website Re-Design




I have finally found myself a Web Designer to help me revamp my http://www.becomingmagnum.tv/ Website, which was originally intended to simply allow people to view my Trailer.
My Web Designer is also a Graphic Artist who has updated/improved my original picture design that took me forever to figure out how to do on my own with Adobe Photoshop.
His pictures blow me away. It's going to be really tough to figure out which picture to go with. The picture with the original Ferrari 308 GT from the TV Series looks great, and definitely lets you know at one glance what it's about.
Though I also like the newer, modern F360 Spyder.
I think I'm going to have to hold a Poll or something and have others Vote on their favorite design to help me figure out which one to go with.
I look forward to seeing the new design of the Website in the next few days.
I am incredibly grateful for all of the talented and gifted and amazing people I've had the pleasure of meeting and working with on this journey so far.
Dale's design's are definitely helping me to really get a sense of BECOMING MAGNUM beginning to move forward.
Happy Thanksgiving!
Mike.

MOMENTUM'S PICKING UP!


Momentum is definitely beginnning to pick up for BECOMING MAGNUM! I recently took a "BRANDING FOR THE ACTOR" Workshop and I learned a lot of great things about BRANDING as an Actor that have really begun to explode some crazy ideas for myself as an Actor, and for the BECOMING MAGNUM BRAND.

2 Weeks ago, my JV (Joint Venture) Partners and I finally got the Contract Signed with The Cecil to Promote a Wednesday Night Event, and we get to keep a 50% of the Profits from the Event.

Since I've been developing, and planning to launch BECOMING MAGNUM I realized, "Why don't I throw a ROBIN MASTER'S "Night Of Dreams" MASQUERADE PARTY at The Cecil?"

The Masquerade Party will be the launch of both my Entrepreneurial/JV Career and the Launch Party for BECOMING MAGNUM.

Since it's a Celebration and a Launch, we are planning to invite the original cast of the "Magnum, P.I." TV Series as well as everyone who's ever been involved at some point of the Journey so far, and get them to show their Support through Alcohol Sales.

We are in the beginning stages of planning the MASQUERADE PARTY which will be a Night Club Experience with Partially Naked and Masked Men & Women.

We're going to be inviting everyone we know in the TV & Film Industry to the Party.

I've also come up with a whole new story idea. Instead of having the focus be just on myself, I've decided to bring on David Attar and Duane Patterson, and document each of our journey to getting cast in the upcoming "Magnum, P.I." We will be Rehearsing the Pilot Script, "Don't Eat Yellow Snow In Hawaii," for the Magnum, P.I. TV Series, and we will be needing to cast an Actor to play HIGGINS, (the Major Domo of Robin Master's Estate) while I lose the 120-140 lbs that I in order to play Thomas Magnum.

The INTENTION is to do a Re-Make of the Pilot Script, Rehearsing it while I lose the Weight, and then going to shoot it On Location in Hawaii using HD Camcorder's. Though I am going to have to contact the Powers that be to find out if I need to and/or can get Permission to do my Re-Make, and to use the Robin Master's name for my launch party.

The shoot/Web Documentary will last for at least 12 months while I lose the weight, we shoot our Fan HD Re-Make, and basically promote the Magnum, P.I. Movie in our bid to get cast.

I'VE GOT A SPONSOR

I met with Rene Neilly today (Brad King's wife/publicist) and she confirmed for me that Brad and his Business Partner would like to come onboard and Sponsor me with a 1 Year Supply of ULTIMATE Supplements and Brad's Nutritional Guidance.

I then went to a Real Estate Investor's Meeting - where I've been going to learn about Real Estate Investing, and to perhaps find Deals, and be a Bird Dog and Find Buyers and earn a nice Profit.

I don't quite get it all (I've just started learning), but I've got some great "Creative Real Estate" Mentors. Eventually I will find the right opportunity and make some good money from.

I then popped into an Internet Marketing Mastermind Group, where I ended up standing in front of the Group and Pitching "BECOMING MAGNUM" to them.

I started off by showing them my Trailer at http://www.becomingmagnum.tv/, and then jumping into the update, about including David Attar/Rick, and Duane Patterson/TC, and then into the Pitch for the Robin Master's Masquerade Party, doing the Re-Make of the "Magnum, P.I." Pilot and our search for HIGGINS.

The group was going to select from a handful of Pitches to help them Launch their Project. Unfortunately I didn't get picked. However, I did some networking and met some great contacts that have solid potential to partner with.

Plus, it also taught me a few things. It's time to look into going to TOAST MASTER'S and beginning to Practice my Pitch, on my Feet for when it's time to go to Hollywood and/or to do my Pitch on the Phone for Tom Selleck, and Brian Grazer.

I'm an Actor, and I love performing, and sharing ideas, and sharing my creatively strategic ideas.

It is time to focus my "Mind Powers" (John Kehoe) and Visualize using VAKS (Dr. Lee Pulos) and "Manifest" the Meeting I want with Mr. Selleck and Mr. Grazer and the outcome I'd like to have.

ACTION STEPS FOR THE NEXT WEEK. (Tuesday November 24th - Tuesday December 1st.

1) Get a Firm Agreement/Contract Signed with Personal Trainer, Actor Training, Hollywood Mentor(s), owner of Private Investigation Firm, Entrepreneurial & Success Mentors, etc.

2) Contact a Toastmaster's, and start working on my Physical/Verbal Pitch.

3) Find a Web Designer to revamp http://www.beocmingmagnum.tv/ so that I can update it, and begin ramping up my Internet Marketing Campaign.

It's gonna be a lot of fun!

With Gratitude,


Mike.
