While Deutscher's freelance photography, videography and graphic art work continues to grow more and more in demand, ErikDeutscher.com gets a little bit of a face lift and Deutscher's new online gallery opens: A Study In One's Self . This is collection of self-portraits Deutscher has created over the past few years and can be found here.
03.22.07
After two strong years of building and structuring NotMTV.tv into what it is today with creator Tom Rowles, Deutscher takes an indefinite leave of absence. Though Deutscher has been working on NotMTV.tv with Rowles since day one as videographer, graphic designer and producer, the two may join forces once again for the Star Wars: Celebration IV convention in Los Angeles coming this May. Until then, the duo's final projects were the new music videos for Love Hate Hero (Red Dress) and Bleed The Dream (Closer) which can be found at NotMTV and YouTube.

The pilot episode for Jeff Victor's new cartoon, Super Fiends, is now finished and has been officially "released". Deutscher has worked closely with Victor and co-creator Joseph Schneider in capturing and editing the vocal performances and sound effects for this production. Plus, Deutscher makes an "on-screen" and voice cameo in this episode. Super Fiends is available for free online streaming and downloading at ErikDeutscher.com, MySpace, YouTube and, of course, JeffVictor.com.

Deutscher has been recently commissioned to do the staff photography for Groundwork Coffee in Hollywood. This is a permanently displayed decorative piece that can be viewed now. Stop by today!

The first annual NotMTV.tv Jamboree is almost here! This is an event that you don't want to miss! Five different bands of five different styles. It's on Saturday, June 24th at the Plush Lounge (Key Club) on the Sunset Strip in Los Angeles, CA. The show starts at 8pm and it's free. Visit NotMTV.tv for details.
This does seem to bit of a plug, but it's very exciting for Deutscher and Tom Rowles (creator of NotMTV.tv) as it's their first big independent event. The entire evening will be covered and aired on NotMTV.

It's
finally here and ready to watch: The Beginning of the End.
Though not on DVD, this highly anticipated documentary is now
available for online viewing and download (go to the BOTE
page for options).
Not on
DVD? With this being a "no budget" production, creators
Deutscher and Rowles did not have the financial means
for a DVD release. Deutscher does plan to have a physical DVD release
of BOTE in the future, however. A "Special Edition"
is in the planning stages in hopes to be released in time for
the 30th anniversary of Star Wars.
In the
meantime, Deutscher is staying busy with the production of his short,
The Confrontation Pt. III, as well as continuing his
efforts in photograghy and digital art. Check back often and be
sure to keep yourself up to date with all of the latest news by

Deutscher
is currently editing and working on distribution help for his
upcoming documentary DVD: The Beginning of the End. Deutscher
joined LiningUp.net
to experience the Starlight Starbright Childrens Foundation fund
raising event of waiting over 6 weeks in line in front of Grauman's
Chinese Theatre in Hollywood, CA for the opening of Star Wars
Episode III: Revenge of the Sith. He has personally documented
hours upon hours of footage throughout the many days. During that
time is when he met Tom Rowles.
Rowles, then a producer for G4TV (TechTV), was doing an interview
with the line members for G4TV's Attack of the Show program.
It was at that time they decided it would be in the best in both
of their interests to join forces. Rowles has since started several
of his own projects: FromTheShadows.tv
and NotMTV.tv.
Deutscher
commented, "The Beginning of the End has been moving a
little slowly as of late, but still underway none the less! We know
so many of you have been asking for it and we thank you for being
so supportive and understanding. As soon as we know, you'll know."
The
Beginning of the End will be available to own on DVD this holiday
season. The new trailer for The Beginning the End, however,
is available now. To receive all of the latest information about
the release and other BOTE news, go here.

In
addition to remaking No Turning Back's Angry video, Deutscher
is in the pre-visualization stages of two new music video's for
No Turning Back: Old and Anthem. Plus, he has

of Old, in addition to the music video. A rough draft for
this has already been written by Deutscher.
