Big Week in Video…
It’s been a big week this week for me personally…my work, my films…my current epic (of 20 minutes) is coming along. 1 week from today I will be well over half finished with principle photography. One of the bigger hurdles I had to get over was getting permission to film in a movie theatre. When i was a student I attempted to gain access to a movie theatre and was turned down. So I was a little nervous as to whether I would get clearance or not. I wrote the script with the Times Cinema in mind…so that was where I started. The times is a one scree theatre that used to show mostly old movies, now they show a mix of old movies and new movies.
I called the Times, and spoke with the manager…much to my surprise he was more then willing to let me shoot my film there. On top of that, he was excited. He wants to help me out any way he can. AND on top of that…he asked if I’d consider showing the movie there when it’s finished…of course it didn’t take much for me to twist my arm on that one.
So that’s very exciting, I will not only be filming in one of my favorite theatres…I will also get to show it there…
The other big news is I finalized arrangements with a friend/professor who has asked me to be a “guest animator” on his short animation. I will be flying to Pennsylvania to animate the first weekend in August. He laughed at the idea of me flying/renting a car to animate in his film (he thought I was driving out). I look forward to the opportunity, it will be good for my resume and the experience will be great. Plus it will be great to visit the town I once lived in for 5 years…
More good news to come I’m sure…
Stay Tuned for more films/flash/photography…
