February brrrrr,so close to spring but it feels so far too. How are you staying warm? One day we are in the 30's then we plunge down to negative temps.I hope some of you have been able to go to the tropics and get a lil' sunburn. I know I did! My partner makes me. What's the update on the next film about Patrick Scully? We continue to move forward. Our editorSkip Davisand have a plan to edit next week. I'm also meeting with our directory of photographyGreg Winterabout an upcoming shoot ofB roll images. Also, I feel a need to hire an assistant for this project, I need help in the office! If anyone knows of a young filmmaker or someone that would like to intern on this documentary,pls send me a DM.
Above, I want to share agreat 7 minute radio piecemade byCyn Collinsof Minneapolis KFAI community radio. In her story, Collins reports on the motivations of Patrick and why he chose Walt Whitman as a subject, she also delves in the premiere of the film at theTwin City Film Fest. It's a nice work of journalism, I hope you check it out. Below are some candids from the in-studio interview. Thanks Cyn and all the journalists that covered us last fall!
