TOGI & RHUBARB PIE Logrolling

Because there's no such thing as bad publicity...

My behind the scenes pics from THE ONLY GOOD INDIAN;

'Up To Date' with Steve Kraske on KCUR interviews Kevin Willmott about TOGI, and has info about KC Filmfest; and an additional interview with Kevin on 'KC Currents' from late March of this year. It's about 12 minutes - it starts at 10'18" in and ends at about 22'14";

My behind the scenes pics from RHUBARB PIE;

and an article about the short appears in the current Urban Times paper - pg. 4 in the .pdf file.

KC Filmfest 2009

It used to be known as the Kansas City Filmmakers Jubilee... apparently they have combined forces with another local festival. The emphasis is on local work, or work that has local ties.

For the past few years, it's usually been that I've been unable to make the festival due to working on some production scheduled at the same time. This year, there's incentive to attend, like the productions that I worked on:








So, this is a big event for me... usually there's only one project that gets screened, but it's a rare occurrence to see several all at once. In some instances, festival screenings may be the only exhibition that the work gets -- it's happened on a few films that I've been on. As I've stated before; you go onto a film hoping to get paid, but in indie film, even if you get paid, it's not a lot... I like to be able to see the finished product, and if you're lucky, it turns out to be good or better than you expect.

So, hit the KC FILMFEST if you have the chance. It kicks off next Wednesday - I'll of course have plenty to say about the films after I see them... maybe I won't piss off too many people.

Rhubarb Pie - Coming Soon

I said that I'd post some pictures from the recent shoot when I could....
following are screen grabs (some excellent DP work by Todd Norris).





It's a short film featuring local KC area actors Jason Miller,



Michelle Davidson-Bratcher,




and Scott Cordes (from SUSPENSION).




Directed by Mitch Brian (on the R, next to Todd Norris, on L.
Not a frame-grab).




It was pretty good to work with both of them again... as I said before, the last time I'd worked with Mitch was on a short he did called STAY CLEAN, a few years back. He's been pretty busy with writing projects for awhile, so it was nostalgic to see the old gang back in action on set again.

Not Dead, Not Sleeping...

... but very busy at the new job that I just started in August, which is the main reason I haven't been updating. I also got a short film to work on, Rhubarb Pie, directed by KC screenwriter Mitch Brian (who I last worked with on the James Ellroy adaptation, STAY CLEAN way back when). So a lot of things got shoved aside or postponed.

I'm settling into the routine, so I'll post later in the week about the DVD's I was able to finish before getting back into the 9-5, and I'll put some RP production photos up too.
