I spent a morning with photographer Kathleen Connally several years back. We talked, we walked. I came back hoping to put something together immediately but life got a little crazy and I had to put it aside. Till now.

Although I am not religious, religion play...

Podcast by Todd Tinkam Click Pic to play. Flash file available here. Okay, Ajit, here it is. This is a teaser of our film, AMERICAN ROAD. I've never made a teaser before, so I'm not sure if anyone will feel teased by it. Teased - as in they'll wonder about the film, the characters, and what happens to them beyond the few minutes shown here. Not sure if I'm doing it right, getting to the essence of what the film is about without revealing too much. Mary & I are interviewed briefly about the f...

I am probably breaking some Videoblogging Week bylaw by posting a podcast that was not made this week. But the original Day 5 episode needed a little more tender love and care. The Fishtank Ferrari episode was one fragment of a bigger documentary project on tricked out cars. Sadly, the project was abandoned.

podcast by Rachel Connolly click pic to play, Flash version available here . After filming a narrative short at Pete Wing’s castle in 1995, I returned at the break of dawn after several years to follow Pete around with the Mini DV. Hours and hours of his ramblings were whittled down to this 10 minutes documentary. I wanted to tape Pete until he finished the B&B extension but realized he was probably going to be working on the castle forever and I needed to wrap things up. Turns out, he dis...

Podcast by Ajit Anthony Prem A film that I shot in College but finished much, much later. By the time I had completed it, I had forgotten many of the full names of the cast and crew. My sincere apologies to them wherever they are. (Credits below) This film is wonderfully and insanely abstract, I have a love/hate relationship with it. Many of the initial ideas I began with disappeared once production started. And what was already a pretty abstract plot became even more....
