Cocoa Beach goes off.

Amazing weekend. So happy with how many people showed up to the Surfside playhouse in Cocoa Beach Friday night. People were taking the furniture out of the lobby and lining the aisles with chairs, couches and whatever else they could get their hands on. Pretty neat. Thanks to cool Keith for the photos- and a special thanks to everyone that came out!

Super-Duper-Secret location

Yesterday morning we shot the final section for picaresque. Just in time to start our tour. Not really going to say much about it, but it my favorite part of the film. Really beautiful, really different and fun. And it was shot just an hour from my house in FL! Here's some photos to get the juices flowing.

What a night.

What an amazing way to kick this project off to the world. Our first premier sold out the Noosa 5 Cinemas filling all 310 seats in the theatre, and then some. People packed in for for what seemed like an hour before the crowd thinned enough to actually start the show. By that time it was standing room only. I want to give a huge thanks to all my friends and their family who came out to support the film. What a night.

Home.

Now that the dust has literally settled from our Costa Rica trip and the 30+ rolls of super-16 is back and logged I had some time to get some photo's that I took developed. I shot these with an old medium format twin-lens Yashica camera. I'm really appreciating film these days. I'm a total technology dork. I new Nikon D series camera comes out, I want it. New macbook pro just released? I'm already in line. This whole project has made me take a step back and look into the beauty of things, especially film. The natural texture, the colors and the fact that I did nothing to these photos after I scanned them is amazing.
