This last weekend was a lot of fun- Met some wonderful people and watched their great films. Wrestling with Sanity didn’t win the Regional Short Film Award, but oh well- it was still a blast.

The Haiti documentary I have been editing for Jonas Nosile is about 85% complete- Getting excited to finally finish that project up. We were almost done when the earthquake in January hit (we learned about it ten minutes after Jonas left an editing meeting).

But I have edited another Haiti documentary for Glenn Zienowicz, following the missionary group he was apart of in February. A first cut is finished, but I’m still working on some graphics for it. It will be up soon, though!

The short film trilogy Wrestling with Sanity (soon to be a feature film of the same name) has been accepted to the SENE Film, Arts, and Music Festival! The film is written and directed by Mike Messier, shot and edited by yours truly, as well as co-produced with Mike over 3 years. We made the shorts as a promotional tool to sell the feature, and it worked- as well as being noticed by numerous festivals, winning two audience choice awards.

Wrestling with Sanity will be shown April 11th at Cable Car Cinema at precisely 12:30 PM

It was requested by SENE to have a trailer for opening night- And here it is! Make sure to check out the festival and dozens of it’s other brilliant artists April 7-11. More information can be found on their website: http://www.senefilm.org/

My English professor from RIC, Thomas Cobb, wrote a novel in the 80s titled Crazy Heart. Last year it was made into a major motion picture. My station did a package on his feature film triumph. I wanted to share it with everyone; I’m so happy for him and all his well-deserved success.

Dr. Cobb also invited myself and other good friends from the Artists in Society Learning Community we were all a part of to the RI premiere. Here we are after the showing January 29 outside the Avon Cinema:
