This is the part where I make a bunch of excuses why I haven t posted my weekly video for more than a month. Excuse #1 - made a couple films for MediaNet s One-Minute Challenge, which screened on 16mm film, Youtube won t let me upload 16mm, so I ve had to wait until now to transfer it to digital. Excuse #2 - I was in Calgary for the $100 Film Festival, where Grass was playing (and won the Best Super 8 Award). Excuse #3 - I was in Dawson City for the International Short Film Festival, where both Sometimes and Grass were playing. Excuse #4 - I had the flu. Hallucinating. Awesome. All excuses aside, I ve got the films done now, and will be putting them up over the next few days, in no particular order. First up is windowpane. I shot it in Calgary, while I was there for the $100 Film Festival. Good times. The Calgarians are a lot of fun, and took great care of me, (thanks Mels!) While wandering around with the Bolex and Luke Black (one of the bunch of really cool folks I met at the CSIF,) we found a window, leaned against a fence in an alley, covered in mildew and frost. With a macro lens, I explored it. Shot on 16mm film and hand-processed by Scott Amos, Music by Mike Wolske. You need to a flashplayer enabled browser to view this YouTube video Quicktime:
