One of our camera backers, Josh Apter of Manhattan Edit Workshop, invited me out to a panel he was moderating on Digital Cinema: Past, Present, and Future at CCW Expo at the Javits Center in New York yesterday.

It was a real pleasure to check out this show, which is kind of like a mini NAB East, and features a ton of cool gadgets and broadcast gear. It’s amazing how much new broadcast technology is aimed at prosumers–small production companies and individuals working from single cameras, laptops, etc. without a studio of equipment to deal with.

The panel itself was a lot of fun. My co-panelists were Jem Schofield of TheC47, Terry Brown from Mega Playground, and Andy Shipsides of AbelCine.

ONE SMALL STEP in the Festival de Cannes 2012 short film catalogue.

Back recuperating in Paris and so it’s time to talk Cannes!

The festival was great experience, and completely different than any I have attended due to its overwhelming international presence. It really put into perspective for me that, despite its massive box office earnings, America is only a small portion of the global film market, a market that caters to every story and every culture, popular or minority.

I really came away feeling that if your particular project doesn’t seem to fit the mold of films your country or community is focused on, there truly is an international audience waiting to see your work, if you can only find the right way to connect with them. Continue reading “Yes we Cannes!” »

One Small Step at Cannes

We’re excited to announce that our short film One Small Step will be making its world premiere at the Short Film Corner at the 2012 Cannes film festival.

We think this is the perfect place to premiere the short as it allows industry professionals, fellow filmmakers, and anyone with accreditation to the festival the ability to watch the film “on demand” in a screening room or viewing station. I’ll be on hand for the first week of the festival to answer questions and meet up with anyone who wants to learn more about the camera or learn about the film.

While many of you have now watched the trailer and the BTS video for One Small Step, we haven’t spent a lot of time talking about the people who helped make the film a reality, so I wanted to introduce you all to the extremely talented cast of One Small Step:

Jordyn Lucas (Destiny White)

Jordyn did an amazing job as our lead character, Destiny White, bringing incredible energy, humor, and positive attitude to the set. She lent the perfect mix of gravitas and innocence to an at times heavy script, and delivered a fantastic performance, especially for such a young actor.

Bio: Jordyn Lucas, a native San Franciscan, has spent most of her life in front of the camera both as an actress and former Ford model. Jordyn has starred in projects for Nickelodeon, the California Department of Health, and numerous independent films and commercials. She also appeared in the San Francisco Opera’s productions of Porgy & Bess and Das Rheingold. Jordyn is represented by the Norwood Talent Agency in Los Angeles.
