I shot this short film with Peter, RT, and many more friends in St. Lou for the 48 hour film project. It was written, produced, shot, edited, scored, color corrected on my New RED 4k digital cinema camera in 48 hours. It is not perfect – but I like it and it was a fun challenge.
I suggest you right click it and download it to your desktop to play it back. It is a Quicktime video (1k).
otherwise you can try to stream it. Hit back on your browser to come back here.

The Cannes Film Festival has started and The trailer of the film I shot last spring is up. It is being projected but not in competition. The production company has a nice stand and big yacht for meetings. It was nice yesterday to visit and see the trailer. The images look good and the color correction and sound were well done also. It is a teaser and so you do not really understand the plot of the film deeply, but my concern is with the images as DP (chef operator).

The first weekend in June I am going to New York to work on shooting some more for my foundation and I am going to visit St. Louis for the 48 hour film project. We will do a short in 48 hours written, shot, edited, color corrected, scored and mixed in a weekend… Should be intense and fun. It will be good to get a new team together to do some dramatic work.
I am also working on developing a short in Paris on social health issues. It has some promise and I hope to shoot it at the end of this year or next spring. I am also in discussion for a french tv series – it is a police drama about ecological themes.
As usual I am writing a few things as well and hope to shoot those soon also. Work is advancing well. The foundation has a lot of big things in the pipeline, that I cannot talk about – but it is the jewel in scope of things. I hope to shoot a bunch of shorts to build up my reel so that people see that I am ready for my own projects and to be more able to do some commercial work. I hope that it will help the chance of a broader dramatic work in my foundation and that I will be able to work on deep important themes that will enrich peoples lives and help them. But I have to go through a lot to get there. Most people think I am doing to much in too diverse directions, but I think I want to do anything I can to advance my skills and to express myself more artistically and less as a technician. It is very hard – but I persevere.
Anne is 7 months pregnant now with my baby boy and there are a lot of preparations for the due date the 14th of august. I redid my salon (wood floors, paint, home theater) and the baby’s room is repainted and be stocked with stuff. I still need to get some baby clothes for before 6 months, but we are gathering a lot of peoples stuff. It is really beautiful to see how much people support one another with children.
let me know if you are in cannes – I would be happy to meet up. I will be in St. Tropez saturday (17) and sunday (18) also.
