Review and collaborate on your own time with Fuze Movie
By · Comments
As we keep moving forward technologies come and go but one thing is certain: filmmakers need to collaborate. This is especially true in the post production process. I know this firsthand. On my last film I would send MOV file to my executive producer and call him up to go over the cut.
It was painstaking about this was we had to basically say go at the same time and try and be synced as we watched the cut of the film. He would say "stop, there should be more color here" and I would jot down his note (hopefully) at the same time code. Yes it worked but it was a bit of pain in the butt.
After scouring the web for new possibilities for collaboration and review I came across a new product that I've fallen in love with. Introducing Fuze Movie. So what is this innovative new product? Let's take a look. Read More→
Any other ideas?Oxford Film Festival – An Eye Opening Experience
By · Comments
I recently had an opportunity to accept an invitation to the Oxford Film Festival to be on a panel and to do a workshop. This was my first journey to one of the smaller festivals on the circuit. I must say going to this festival was definitely an eye-opening experience for me.
See for many years I only saw festivals such as Sundance, Cannes, Toronto as festivals filmmakers such as myself would want to go to. Why? Because that's where the buyers were. Not only were they great festivals but distribution and sales reps were there. To be quite honest I always thought the smaller festivals were a bit of a waste of time. Boy was I wrong.
Lucky for me on the van ride from Memphis to Oxford I was joined by a charming fellow named Chris Holland. Not only is Chris a cool guy but he is all knowing in the realm of film festivals. He even wrote a book about it: Film Festival Secrets. During my stay there we had a lot of time to hang out together at events and he really drilled in my head the importance of small festivals for filmmakers. Read More→

So, what do you think?TRAINS, CAMERAS AND THE CONSITITUTION
By · Comments
It was Labor Day in 2009 when I became aware of just how bad things have gotten in the US. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t think I’ve been naïve. I’ve been a student of free speech and the political landscape of the US since high school, but Labor Day was the first time I have come into contact with a violation of my civil rights in a very real way.
