Last big push

Even the cast have joined the last big push on Indiegogo to help get the social justice film 20 Ways out to festivals - on average the cost of submission falls somewhere between 50 and 100 dollars - just 50 dollars enables us to send to another festival. Help us push.

Shirley Maclaine

Cloud Nine Day - thanks to my good friend Gene today I got to work with a real star of the screen an actress that awe is all you can say - Shirley Maclaine. Part of the delight was weather meant the crew were later arriving so I got to sit and chat - life, politics, directors, film and acting for a whole hour before hand. We discussed filters, lights, and framing she knows it all. Professional, fun, a real tour de force. She listened and took direction but deep down you just know she knew it all. A delight yes, an education indeed, but most importantly one of those life experiences that enriches.
