In Ireland

Many thanks to the 12th Ó Bhéal International Poetry-Film Competition for selecting “How Much Filipino” for their Winter Warmer Poetry Festival. All films will be screened at Nano Nagle Place in Cork, Ireland and streamed online (Nov. 24, 2024).

Judges selected 30 films for the festival from 174 submissions received from 144 filmmakers in 29 countries.

In Buenos Aires

Thanks to the Second Poetic Cinema Festival for selecting “The Missing Book” for their festival in Buenos Aires, Argentina. The festival took place Oct 9 – 11 at the Espacio Arte Vivo. Wish I could have been there to see all the poetry films.

Official Selection: PIM 2024

Thanks to the Poetry in Motion Film Festival for naming my short film “The Missing Book” as an official selection in this year’s event. Poetry in Motion” is Colorado’s Premier International Poetry film festival.

Pass the Popcorn

I’m looking forward to checking out a screening today of “This is Where We’ll Build the Labyrinth” at the Balboa Theater in San Francisco as part of the local short film collection at the Another Hole in the Head Film Festival (1:30pm, PST).

My film is also playing on Dec 9 at the 4 Star in San Francisco with a group of animated shorts.

Can’t make it to SF? That’s okay, you can see the film online later in December at the official website of the Another Hole in the Head Film Festival.

Another Hole in the Head 2023

I’m pleased to report that “This Is Where We’ll Build the Labyrinth” is an official selection at this year’s Another Hole in the Head film festival. You can check out my short poetry film online from Dec 1 – 25 as part of Strictly Local 2 collection.

Better yet, you can join me at the Balboa Theater in San Francisco on Dec 2 (1:30pm) for a live screening of my film, following by a short Q&A session.

A second in-person screening has been added: Dec 9 (1:30pm) at the 4 Star Theater in San Francisco (with other animated shorts).

Festival Alert: Giant Rock X 2

“Giant Rock” is a strange film. It’s not for everyone. But that’s okay. I love this film anyway – in all its slow, otherworldy, desert-dream-vision strangeness.

All of which brings me to the point of this post, which is…

I was very excited last night to receive word that “Giant Rock” has been selected by two film festivals… the First Contact Film Festival and the Portland Festival of Cinema, Animation & Technology.

Thank you to them both for presenting “Giant Rock” to the world.
