This past weekend, Carlo Fiorletta and I participated in what has become a delightful annual event: we shot a movie for Backyart's 3rd Annual Film Fest (see http://www.backyartbrooklyn.wordpress.com/).
This fest is the essence of immediate gratification: at 5 PM on Friday, the organizers provide a theme that MUST be included in all movies. The movies must be written, shot, and submitted by 5 PM on Monday (minimum of 30 second, maximum of 5 minutes). This year's theme was: "So this is the myth you've been sleeping with?"
Carlo wrote, directed, and cast a delightful comedy called All About Audition, culled from his years both casting and being cast, and I served as the camera(wo)man and producer.
The cast featured the talented and experienced actors Haley Zale, Jay Rivera, Simcha Borenstein, Troy Dane, Alex Goll, and opera-singing Luigi Fabricini. And he rounded it out with acting newcomers playwright Gary Morgenstein and Gabe Baitz.
The movies (submitted by filmmakers in NYC and Dublin, Ireland) will screen at CultureFix (see http://www.culturefixny.com/) in Manhattan on Friday April 1 at 8 PM; they're at 9 Clinton St., just south of Houston Street. Check it out if you have a chance!
I'd love to thee thomething with thomebody who hath a listhp, and thayth, "Tho, thith ith the mith you've been thleeping with?"
