Video collection test

Just playing around with Vodpod and their neat video widget feature, as seen above… You can check out a bunch of my different shorts all within this self-contained video player, instead of navigating to different pages.

AMERIKUH! on The Daily Reel

AMERIKUH! has been included on The Daily Reel’s Top Ten list of best online videos for February 7th. Yeeeea!

AMERIKUH!

AMERIKUH! Come one, come all! A land of unparalleled liberty! Bask in the glory of democracy! Seriously.

(Higher quality version here: QuickTime)
Ok, so I wrapped up my video entry for the 2007 Stockstock Film Festival. (Stockstock provides a bunch of totally random stock footage clips, and it’s your duty to assemble something using only that footage. [...]

Work

So, my main source of income was cut yesterday. I’ve been writing for DVGuru since last June or so, and it was an easy and secure (or so I thought) source of money. Best of all, I could work at my own pace and do as much or as little writing as I wanted, without [...]

Blurp

After months of creative stagnation, I am finally becoming re-energized again and working on a new (I’ll-actually-finish-this-one) film project. It’s nothing too major, but editing has been helping me to get the inspiration going. The project is actually just a short entry for the Stockstock Film Festival.
Other than this, I’m writing an article about [...]

¡Sí, Se Puede! @ The Best of the JSF, Oklahoma City

¡Sí, Se Puede! will be playing during The Best of the Journal of Short Film at The Oklahoma City Museum of Art on  Sunday, January 28th.
Neat.

Unfinished Works

Jolly good show at Unfinished Works last night… SSP got a nice reception, and I needed that boost in motivation after seeing other’s work and talking with folks. I’ve been pretty stagnant with the video stuff over the past few months, but I think my energy might be sloowly creeping back.
Anyway, something of interest that [...]

¡Sí, Se Puede! @ Unfinished Works, January 7

¡Sí, Se Puede! is playing in New York this Sunday, January 7. The details:

The space is funky and intimate; the artists are talented and hungry; the audience is open and eager; media and metaphors are mixed with reckless abandon.

In January and February, UnfinishedWorks is the grateful guest of The Tank, as Culture Project [...]

¡Sí, Se Puede! in New York

¡Sí, Se Puede! will be screening in New York City on January 7 at The Tank, along with a bunch of other stuff. I don’t really know the complete lowdown, but it should be pretty interesting.

rubber band hand in NY

Weird… I submitted my short, rubber band hand to NewFilmmakers way back in March, and I just got word in the mail that it will be screening on February 7, 2007 during the series. Whoa: it will have been nearly a year and half since I made the thing when it plays at the Anthology [...]

On your television

So, ¡Sí, Se Puede! and THE IMMORTALITY OF MAN are hitting the airwaves, as they say:
Thanks to PepperSpray Productions, a non-profit independent video collective based in Seattle, the ¡Sí, Se Puede! will appear on their weekly TV show that plays on ten local access channels nationwide. Not really sure where, though. The film will also [...]

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 [...]
