Final pushes for The Experiment-- Monica and Clayton (Directors)-- Stefani (Director of Photography) Utah.

Hello from real life. With the holidays and the first round of grant cycles for 2010 approaching I have been rather MIA. The Experiment for 137 Films keeps trucking along and is starting that glorious push into post. I have the good fortune of working under a fantastic directing team composed of Monica Long Ross and Clayton Brown. Clayton has started this new blog for science films if you’d like to follow his thoughts on particle accelerators and Volkswagens.

I have launched a new collective called RealLab you can check out our forthcoming film projects on the site… and yes, I actually get to say film in two of these cases. Oollala! In fact we found a couple of Kodak canisters hiding in the 137 office two weeks ago if they’re stable, Clayton plans on making them into a short.

(I was born in 1981. Film is mythical to me.)

Meanwhile, Sean my glorious DP for Soul Winners plans on having some adventures with Super 8 footage for the film.

A busy month all around, lots of doing lunch and meeting deadlines. Coping mechanism for stress:  I’ve discovered 21 Jump Street via Hulu. Fair warning– do not watch so many in a row because the continuity issues are numerous. On the flip, a young Jason Priestly keeps showing up.Anyway, lately I’ve been thinking about the whole evolution of Fox and what it must have been like to be working in programming during the mid 1980s. However, at this moment I am thinking of a snack, so I shall hang it up.

Hi, Hello.

Happy 2010. I’ll come up for air in Spring time when we load up Mister Yeti (that is the name of my dear Honda Element) and return to shooting. In the meantime its a winter of funding strategy and post production from the Carole Cave.
