On the Friday before Bumbershoot 2007, the Seattle Time’s Jeff Shannon made mention of a certain short film by a certain someone whom I’m sure you know.
Of course I’m talking about MYSELF! Who wouldn’t be when the Seattle Times calls your first film “an enjoyably offbeat example of unlikely romance.”
Yee-Haw! That feels good!
Well, enough gloating. I couldn’t have told this story without the talent of my super talented friends whom I’m sure never read my blog but they are: Jonathan Houser, Tony Tibbetts, Alexandra Tavares, Rich Phelps, Winda Benedetti and Neill Barham.
The Time’s quote was taken from their Bumbershoot preview story:
“Made in Seattle” (2-3 p.m.) is a typically mixed-bag category of local hits and misses, and while Shawn Telford’s 13-minute “Gimme Music, Gimme Shelter” (2007) presents an enjoyably offbeat example of unlikely romance, Salise Hughes’ “Everyone I Have Ever Known” (2006) is a trippy, multitextured experiment in no-budget ingenuity.
