The latest news roundup: I just spent 4 days working on a music video shoot for the new single from DAVID J. (of BAUHAUS) It was great to get a chance to work with a combination of cameras: a Sony EX-1, Canon 5D and 7D, and our AJA KiPro. I’ll also be helping out with post-production.
There is yet another chance to catch our short, L’ACCORDATORE. This time we’re an official selection of the Arizona Underground Film Festival , which runs September 18th – 25th, 2010 in Tucson, AZ.
I would love to attend this one, but I’ll actually be out in Los Angeles for Lee Stranahan’s 3D BOOTCAMP on Saturday the 25th, learning to shoot 3D with a dual RED camera rig.

L’ACCORDATORE will be screening at the Laemmle Sunset 5 Theatres in Hollywood on Sunday, July 25, at 5:30 pm as part of LA Shorts Fest PROGRAM #17.
I don’t think I’ll be able to be there for the screening, as I’ll be at Comic-Con earlier in the week and then I’ll be on my way up to Vancouver, BC, (the center of the sci-fi TV universe) via Portland, OR, for a bit of vacation.

It’s been crazy since I returned to Nyack a couple of weeks ago, so it doesn’t surprise me that I completely forgot to post about our trip to Sin City. Still, how on earth could I ever forget that we won Best Short Film! We screened in the first block of Shorts on Saturday afternoon, and on Sunday morning producer George Elias and myself took part in the Filmmaker’s Panel.
The Philly Indie Fest was last weekend, and in a few weeks, we screen out in Los Angeles at LA ShortFest.

Neither David, nor I, will be attending the annual National Association of Broadcasters Convention in Las Vegas this year, but that doesn’t mean HDR-VFX won’t have a presence there.
If you’re at NAB, make sure you stop by the Plugin Pavilion (near Adobe) in the Lower South Hall and visit the folks at Automatic Duck – NAB Booth SL3039 - because you’ll get to see a short clip from our short film “L’Accordatore (The Tuner)” that’s included in the loop that will be playing on the big plasma screen in their booth this year!
The Pro Import AE plugin played a huge part in our post-production workflow when we worked on The Tuner last year. Below is a still from clip:

And if you can’t go to NAB, you can still see their customer showcase on the web:

Wednesday night’s MoPictive meeting was amazing. Our short was shown on Blu-Ray and it looked great. I’m especially happy that it was so well received by an audience of our peers. Oh, and then there’s that magic little box that David won in the raffle – we’re now waiting for our AJA KiPro.
That will complement our EX-1 nicely.
I’m off to San Francisco for a few weeks. You’ll be able to find me at the SFCutters, the SF Photoshop Meetup, and this year’s FCPUG SuperMeet. I’m actually thinking of skipping MacWorld this year… O_o
And the first season of FenceSitter Films “Rose By Any Other Name” is almost done. You can watch Episode 10 right now. More later, from the Left Coast…

Wow. The MoPictive meeting tomorrow night is completely full! So if you didn’t get a ticket, you won’t be able to see the sneak peek of “L’Accordatore”. I guess you’ll just have to wait until we show up at a festival or two (or more!).
I’m really excited to hear everyone’s reactions to our little film. It’s a stunner, if I do say so myself. Both David and I will be there, at the Helen Mills Theatre along with the director and two of the producers to answer questions after the showing. See you there!

At the moment, we’re in consideration at quite a few film festivals, and David and I are cautiously hopeful that we’ll have news of a premiere soon.
