New film project – Update #3
I am going almost on gut instinct with this new mini-feature project. There have been two significant shooting sessions, both of which well fairly well. As soon as we are doing shooting, I review the footage and dump it onto my hard drive. I edit it the same night after shooting. After that, I reviw [...]

DIY filmmaking & Sujewa Ekanayake
I recently did a little interview with Sujewa Ekanayake, director of Date Number One for DV Guru. Sujewa is a big promoter of the DIY filmmaking ethic, something I very much admire, so it was great to hear his insight. The DIY ethic is a very appealing strategy / “style” / philosophy (whatever you want [...]

New film project – Update #1
So, this little film project I recently mentioned… It’s about to start up. I am hestiant to get into too many details, just because the concept for the production is extremely freeform, or ‘organic’, I guess you could say. (Although it technically hasn’t started, that’s how I’m planning, at least.)
I want to take the opportunity [...]
New film project
After more than my fair share of inaction and general sluggishness this summer, I am ready to start up a new film project. For real this time, too, I think. (I am [slowly] working on a mini-doc right now, but that doesn’t quite count.) There have been a couple false starts and a lack of [...]
