Surveillance Debuts At Cannes

without comments

Jason & Jennifer A movie I worked on last year, Surveillance, had debuted at Cannes. Coverage is here, and here. It was a pleasure to be 2nd team to Bill Pullman and Michael Ironside, among others. Meeting director Jennifer Lynch was amazing. She is kind, generous and infectiously funny. We battled some big wind storms on the highways of Saskatchewan, but it was worth the effort. Thanks for the great memories, all the best with the film.

Check out the trailer…

Consuming vs Producing & Sharing

without comments

Awhile ago I posted about Passive vs Active content consumption.

This talk by Clay Shirky on Cognitive Surplus at the Web 2.0 Expo is a much more in depth look at what I was noticing and trying to articulate in my post last year.

I watch much less television, almost never listen to the radio, and see far fewer movies because I am choosing to spend my time with interactive media the allows me to participate. Things like gaming, podcasting, blogging or producing YouTube videos.
