Back from Rome, Sundance and News from Gem City Fest 07
Feb 28, 2007 08:07PM
Sundance was great this year...really cold for those who love winter weather! and Italy...well it was amazing...!
I'll post pix from both shortly.
Meanwhile, while I was on the festival road, DOAS won Best Feature Film at the Gem City Film Fest in Florida!
How great was my January 07, huh? It's always such a blessing to hear from audiences and fest staff that they liked the film...often years in the making, those indie films:)
Thanks to those who seek out indie film and thanks to our country for not censoring us as they do in other countries such as India, for one. Just heard an Oscar nominated director speak the other night and her set was bombed when she tried to shoot in India. Bombed, people. Can you believe that????!!!! Talk about repressing your freedom of speech. And it was bombed because the govt of her country disapproved of her script.
Sheesh. And then she's nominated for an OSCAR in our country. See?? America rocks for some things...0)

We are impressed with your film and what it is about. We organize three film festivals in the middle of the Atlantic ocean and.......... Just kidding. The Pumelo dude is really getting on my nerves. He is on every site that I visit. But I really like your trailer! I watched it a few times and laughed out loud each time. How's the marketing going? I hope you do really well because your film looks so clever and as said earlier, it is really funny. My trailer can be seen at www.donttalksodumb.com. I enjoy reading the filmmaker's blogs. I always find that I have something in common, in one way or another with all the blogs I read.........frustrations, thrills. Oh hell, we're all just blessed being able to create.
Best of luck to you!

Hey, this is my bit of shameless self promotion. Check out my movie page. It has a little trailer and if you ask nicely I can probably let you see the whole thing on a super secret website. http://audience.withoutabox.com/films/justforthedrive

AW yea.
Jun 09, 2006 10:47AM
Alright, I checked the camera and it's a Canon Elura 70.
May 31, 2006 05:24PM
I'm not sure of the specifics of the camera, but it's a Canon mini dv camcorder. It isn't one of those professional ones, and is probably more meant for home videos. But, you know, gotta start somewhere. I did use FinalCut Pro to edit it though.
Also, I live on the West Coast near San Jose, CA.
May 31, 2006 10:58AM
Then yeah.
May 29, 2006 07:40PM
Let me know when your film will be screened in NY. Will make effort to see it. Keep up the good work. My film is screening here on June 18th. My trailor is on my site plus I have a ten minute short there for anyone's entertainment. Tell me what you think. It's always good to see women film makers.
