The Brothers Corral
After graduating from Cathedral High School, the Corral brothers had their futures down pat. Carlos was studying computer science, his brother Octavio in biology. However, there was no disputing their true interests. “There were stacks upon stacks of VHS tapes we made when we were little,” said Octavio. After the dreaded call home to inform the lifeline about the permanent change in their future careers into a notoriously unpredictable field, both University of Texas at Austin students changed their majors to Radio-Television-Film.
Just two short years after graduating, the enterprising siblings are deep into their business venture MindWarp Entertainment LLC, a production company specializing in web design and video production. Although they run their own company with two locations in the state (Carlos, 26, is in Austin, while Octavio, 24, is in El Paso), they were still able to nurture their pet project, a feature film about an alcoholic doctor called Hands of God….

SXSW 2009 has come and gone, and with that, here are some of the things that I experienced at this year’s film + interactive festival. I had missed out on SXSW 2008 but I told myself that I would not miss SXSW this next year! I arrived at the Austin Convention Center Friday afternoon and picked up my badge and goodie bags. The trade shows and panels that I wanted to attend wouldn’t be until Saturday so I made my way back home to drop off my bags. Since I live only 2 miles from downtown Austin, I decided to walk to my first destination, the Paramount Theater where I got the chance to catch a sneak peek of the new movie “I Love You Man!” The whole cast was present at the screening and stayed afterward for a great Q&A. If you haven’t seen this movie yet, then you are missing out!

Finally, after 4 months of development time, our new website is finally online! We would have gotten it done faster, but our “web branch” (me) had a very busy year (yay). Plus, whenever I design for myself, I’m never satisfied. Its non-stop tweaking, tweaking and more tweaking. But nevertheless, it is finally up and alive.
Feel free to click around and soak it all in. There will still be more updates coming shortly (as you can see, the design work section is empty.) We will also be adding client testimonial’s to each work page and the home page. After you’re done clicking around, let us know what you think by commenting on this post. Normally, I would write about all the time and ideas that went into this site’s redesign, but I think it speaks for itself.
And for those that never saw the previous site, here is a nice comparison I put together.
Click the picture for its full size.

Many things have happened over the past year that we haven’t been able to share with you all since we didn’t have our blog up. But now that we do, we will be posting news and updates regularly. If you’d like to keep up to date with any big news or events, subscribe to our e-mail updates. Don’t worry, we won’t be spamming your mailbox.
For now though, you can skim through the archives and read all about our experience in the summer of 2008 working on our latest feature film production, “Hands of God”.
Thank you for taking the time to check out the site, we hope to hear from you!
