Over the past two weeks, I have been at my editing computer for many hours, continuing to make tweaks to the SOURLANDS rough cut – which is slowly but surely looking a little less rough. A limiting factor to how many hours I can put into a day of editing seems to be eye strain. After a dozen hours, it’s  usually time to drink a beer.

The SOURLANDS Kickstarter campaign is on track, but I’ll need to continue to work hard on outreach to reach my goal of $9,500 by February 2. Thank you to everyone who has made a donation to support the film.  Please help to spread the link:

I was just interviewed about SOURLANDS by a writer for the website of Filmmaker Magazine. It’s a fairly technical interview about the advantages and disadvantages of using a DSLR camera for filmmaking, and the nuts and bolts of working as a one-man crew. Here are links to the two-part interview:

Happy Holidays everybody. Now, back to work!
