Celebrating a successful VHS to 16mm film transfer

God Bless : COLORLAB, NYC

p.s. weird, it used to be "film to vhs" transfers were a nightmare + gamble. Times have changed. and have changed = super-fast.

p.s.s. my next film is a mountain nature story based on literary interpretations of an impossible love affair.

By choice. Never easy. Choosing the less over the more. Visiting those who have lost everything, yet remain hopeful. Spreading hope in small quantities against all tormented storms. Speaking through thick glass windows and watching the sweltering tears of those trapped within a "system".


Ultimately it all means making a direct choice to live one's life a certain way and refusing to let any force prevent any good "action".

P.S. If you can't be a good example, at least be a terrible warning.

My life motto (this should never drain away from you by no person)

EXCELLENCE can be attained if you care more than others think is wise...

RISK more than others think is safe...

DREAM more than others think is practical...

EXPECT more than others think is possible.

editing+finishing my 1st FEATURE FILM (94min)

still image with CLOSED CAPTIONED text

Where I'm headed to.
My Script w/Notes (above image)

how Jane works: i print out images during the editing process and take them with me everywhere on a daily basis. i scribble down notations and ideas onto the printed images almost like a makeshift version of a "working script". i return to editing table nightly to encorporate the daily notes and to print out new images that push the process foward. During day hours i collect sound with a 48khz SONY field recorder and place the collected sounds onto a thumbdrive (that then gets manipulated in SOUND FORGE for sound design use).

Plotting a conventional user-friendly Narrative

SNEAK PEEK PREVIEW IMAGES HERE...

Cinema is meant to be a response to the world, as opposed to a distraction from it, an engagement with the present and the past, historical and aesthetic ---in essence, a dismantling of the barrier between the two.

Kent Jones

“You must be the change you wish to see in the world.” - Mahatma Gandhi

QUOTE FOR THE DAY.

"People are often unreasonable and self-centered. Forgive them anyway. If you are kind, people may accuse you of ulterior motives. Be kind anyway. If you find happiness, people may be jealous. Be happy anyway. The good you do today may be forgotten tomorrow. Do good anyway. In the end, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway."

Mother Teresa
