| Word up, peeps! 2009 is shaping up to be fabulous. I am in the midst of wrapping on an awesome creation, created with Gina Kamentsky. Together we made a sweet animated trailer for the upcoming Boston LGBT Film Festival. You can view the trailer HERE... |
| Working with Gina has been great. She is a multi-talented, animator, sculpture and toy maker. More information about Gina & her work can be found at www.pixeltoon.com. The Boston LGBT Film Festival is from May 6th - May 17th. I will be screening a film (an oldie but goodie) at the local filmmakers screening on May 10th. More info can be found HERE. |
| I will be making a music video for Nicky Click in May. I am really excited for this project. We have dreamed up a fun, fast, sexy shoot for her song, I'm on my cellphone. Hey, do you want to be in the video? Hit me up... We'll plan to get this on LogoTV, youtube, etc... Nicky has a great music video on Logo at the moment. |

| I have 4 short films on the burner. Two of the works were penned my Michelle Tea. One is a based on her poem, Fake duck/bad trip. The poem relates an afternoon Michelle Tea and I had in SF, circa mid-90's. Yes, it involved fake duck and a bad trip. The other short is from a chapter in Michelle's book, Valencia. Michelle is in the midst of turning, Valencia into a movie. I am one of the directors working on this awesome project. |

| I will be teaching a new class at CCTV, Video Art. The Video Art class is a theory and production course focusing on the viewing and creation of video art. In each class we will view and produce a short video art piece. The course covers camera and lighting basics. I am also teaching, The fast, cheap and easy way to make a short video. Both classes begin in mid-May. Check out www.cctvcambridge.org for more info, including, how to join CCTV, fees, times/dates and everything great that is CCTV, Cambridge Community Television, Cambridge, MA. |
