THE BIG LEAGUE!

OMG!!!!!! Im so stoked right now! I cant even contain it!! The documentary movie "Living for 32" we shot with Kevin Breslin & Maria Cuomo Cole in Virginia at VA Tech, a compelling story of a survivor of the massacre Cho a single shooter who killed 32 people starring Collin Goddard has been nominated for an academy award for best short film!!!! HOLY!!!! Just the nominee is an honor! Due to the extreme low temperatures our A-cam, a Red One was not feeling well in the 20 below wind chill & zero temps. The camera just couldnt handle the in & out so after loading much footage realized the Red seized up & most of the Sony Cam footage saved the shoot. Much of what you see as B-roll and a few interviews & ten the main hall where all the horror was described by Mr. Goddard was all my footage. The Director explained that my camera & good eye saved the film. I'm overwhelmed with pride! Read More Here,

GOING GLOBAL!

Keep an eye peeled friends, I will be showing Shadows Of The same Sun, The movie that surprised Surfers globally with its short historical coverage as far back as the 1950's all over NY state & beyond. Possibly Spain in 2011, Looking into California & Hawaii & I'd love to go to France with this. 


For the Locals, There will be a screening in Rockaway Beach in the original place where the surfers of the 1950's through the 60's watched the 1st surf films to pass through NYC, The K of C on Beach 90th st. This will be a fun filled event, looking for sponsorship for give aways. Q&A and an all round good party. If The K of C can hold the event, then it would be an honor to show it there. Hopefully it will also be available on DVD and iTunes for the public very soon. 

Cheers,
Thomas

Reviews are in!!

Unreal! Fridays showing of Shadows was all time. Epic. For 2 days now Ive heard the most positive feedback on the movie. movie goers at the Fest have been approaching me with so many great praises on the film. It was an honor to have it shown in the New York Surf Film Festival. Packed house in the theater & out with drinks with the Seven Tiki Rum Girls, tons of nibbles & just a good time vibe all around. This is awesome!

Tonight is the final showing closing out the Fest. If you were lucky enough to get tickets, please enjoy! I will be there again, Look forward to seeing you all there!!

TODAY!

Last night the NYSFF film festival curators had their prefestival BBQ for directors on a Brooklyn Rooftop & we met so many great people, had so many great conversations. Film makers from all over the world shared food & LOTS of beverages. Killed an entire bottle of wine with Tyler Steele in about 3 minutes, lol! The whole event was a very eye opening experience & today the festival opens. I cannot tell you how psyched & proud I am right now. I hope to see you all there. I know the movie sold out quickly but dont worry, I will be showing Shadows locally. I'll post up dates & times when it comes to fruition.

Wish me luck guys, our little production is playing with some of the biggest names in the surf industry. Im completely perplexed! Thank you for all the continued support!
