My interview for MakingOf, a project co-founded by Natalie Portman. Thank you Weston and Andy for somehow finding me suitable enough to interview me and consider me among the likes of Ben Stiller and Jason Bateman. I hope you guys enjoy watching as much as I did sitting and talking about myself.

I am stunned by this story.
Yep, it’s unbelievable. This is very subject is the focus of a documentary called “Prom Night in Mississippi, airing on HBO in July. I first heard about this story in January while reading about all the Sundance films and this documentary immediately jumped out - it’s crazy to me that this is even a reality.

3 Films, One Director, One Week - You Choose!
It’s time to get more serious about film study. I have an ongoing list of films that I want to see yet I constantly put off viewing of classics or “filmmaker” films to see new ones in the theater - I love docs, as you know.
Anyway, I’m not learning anything by not looking back, so I’m beginning a new film blogging project and I’d like your help.
Each week,...

The whole story is very inspiring from a filmmaking aspect and I can’t wait to see the...

Do you have a recommendation for a good radio archivist?

Google won’t let me embed, but here’s a link. Nice to have an interviewer who listens rather than trying to goad you into performing for his studio audience. (via katespencer: purns)

like you have no idea where your journey is taking you, but you know you’re definitely going somewhere? Well, about an hour ago my recent “path,” if you will, came full circle. I can happily say that everything I’ve been doing, random jobs and all, in the past year has directed me to a great documentary film idea that’s all mine. Finally my path is starting to make...
