I did a pitch at an event and I won money to make another film!

I am begging artists, even beginners, to start properly naming files (and layers by extension). Not only will it help you find stuff with ease, but it will prepare you for when you inevitably have to work with other people on the same stuff if you choose to make it your career

If you're thinking about moving house I have some advice: don't. I mean, sure do it. You're probably gonna be much happier living in that new apartment or neighbourhood BUT you should also know that you should not move. Ever. Just do not do it. It's not worth it.

In Dutch we say you're "being lived" when you're so busy that you've lost agency over your own decisions. And it's nuts to me that this is not a common English phrase.

I don't have much to say on this that hasn't already been said a million times, but the contrast between the duels at the end of STAR WARS 2 and STAR WARS 3 is a good argument for why thinking of light as a compositional tool is, to say the least, handy.

All this news reminds me that I should get back to the Beanless cut of Silent Hill.

Sure, there’s a lot of Baseball but have you ever tried keeping up with Tennis?
My film A Weave of Light will play at FCDEP next week. I will also be there in person to do a Q&A and to hangout and to end up drunk at a Pizza Hut because Paris has a Pizza Hut, I've heard.

Love how Hong Sang-soo uses a combination of static compositions, digital sterility (not to mention low-light capabilities), and the fact that lots of modern urban spaces are filled to the brim with light sources to create these strangely inviting nighttime cityscapes.

Glad to see them perserve their energy levels. Glad most of these games happen while I'm asleep.

who knew that the monkey paw tradeoff for the Mariners making the playoffs would be them playing absolutely unwatchably bad baseball down the stretch? If that's the deal I'd still take it but it sure isn't fun.
Happy I watched the Dolphins win at a sport far removed from the sport the Mariners lost at. Losing 12-13 after being ahead 11-2 is not why I watch sporting events, fellas.
Hi. I Made a music video for 72 which is an ambient project by my dear friend Guus. The track is called 'Realm of Dreams'. The video uses footage taken between summer 2013 (starting on the exact day we met) and summer 2022.
Hyperlinks after the jump.

A legacy and set of films honestly too overwhelming, varied, complex, and decisive to ever sum up in a tweet. I’ve adored, hated, found new meaning, rejected, and grappled in so many unexpected ways. RIP Jean-Luc.

In 2006 a high school English teacher asked students to write to a famous author & ask for advice.
Kurt Vonnegut was the only one to respond.
His reply was a doozy.

the corporate willingness to not just view culture and history as disposable, but also to punish those who record, archive, organize, and share it out of their own passion is really something else
