… Here’s the film I made for Darryl’s Hard Liquor & Porn Festival. This three-minute short contains adult themes and content, but no nudity.
Sorry!

Monday, October 16th, 2006The Apple Store Guy en Español
Thursday, May 18th, 2006Props to my boss at iLaugh for passing on this link…
A Spanish-language site for Apple fans has republished the YouTube version of my Apple Store Guy video with the following blurb, courtesy of Babel Fish:
In the inauguration of the last Apple Store opened in the Eaton Center of Toronto, one of the members of iLaugh.com went to cover the event… and it ended up it arming. Known already like “The Apple Store Guy” from that day in Internet, because it was made happen through an employee of the store, greeting and shouting people to him, trying even to strain itself inside before they opened. As the thing finished? With tio expelled from the Apple Store of by life. As if there were not already enough crazy people in those inaugurations like so that it is strained one more…
Something got lost in the translation, I think… Nevertheless, muchas gracias Applesfera!

Just click on the above photo to see the entire set!
Big ups to Andrew Johnston and Katie Bergin for including me in their works of genius. Seeing my name in large print on two different screens sure made me feel like a big shot—that and the cab receipts I got from dashing across town between the two cinemas.
Why Movies on Mobiles Does Not Compute
Thursday, April 27th, 2006
Yes, a South African filmmaker has made the first-ever feature shot entirely on a mobile phone. Yes, the French have embraced mobilized filmmaking with an emphatic “oui”. And now Canada has its first mobile film festival…
So why am I not entering?
Because I understand that, just like computers, mobile phones are not made for the passive consumption of content—that’s what television and movie screens are for. Walk down your typical city street and I reckon you’ll see way more people doing thumb gymnastics on their handset keypads than watching the latest “mobisode” of 24 on their tiny, two-inch screens. That’s because they are interacting with their devices, and by extension, other people. And this is something that traditional video content, even on mobiles, cannot deliver.
Read between the lines of the the Mobifest website and you’ll see little more than a marketing ploy by Palm to peddle their Treos and a veritable dumping ground of repurposed content.
Don’t get me wrong, I’d love to have a video-enabled handset; but I’ll use it for sharing my own content, thank-you very much… Not what someone else tells me to!
