so, mom, dad, my 2 friends and the 1 random guy from melbourne...heres my production update
AUTUMN:
grant season: television broadcasters and film distributors like art council logos because it gives them credibility but they hate art council logos cuz they figure noone will really watch it...they'll just say they did and debate about the topic covered by the film they never saw...
its all a little complicated for me...so im just gonna dig in where i got my first glimpse of light - from the arts community. There apparently is a grant season. At least in Toronto, and that season is fall.
i dont think im a poor writer, but im a reluctant writer...but when motivated by film funding i turn into Dickens.
scotiabank nuit blanche (the translated double entendre was not lost on the bankers in the towers to be sure)...was an amzing shoot and a blessing to the city.
We had at one point 6 cameras pointed in every which direction. I was the guy in the middle freaking out about how im gonna edit all the footage after. But if Art is worth creating; its worth celebrating; if its worth celebrating; its worth capturing in time. There is definitely something to be said about editors becoming the new 'creative voice' of cinema (bit that off DJ SPOOKY's remix lectures)
we're looking foward this season to using the camera to capture the shock when a drip of cold rain finds our necks; and the taste of hot apple cider at 11am...and other autumnal stuff.
REEL ASIAN intl film festival PITCH COMPETITION: we applied, and we'll find out on oct 12 whether we'll be pitching live at the november festival...exciting! we'll keep you posted.
ONE DAY ON EARTH: 101010 (binary = 42, ?) global project. thousands of participants. 192 countries, intl space station, every major charity...fun film project!!!!!
see u round xmastime! maybe b4 who is to know?
