Tour Tips
Director
Ever wonder what it's like to go on tour with your film, band, poetry or art? Well it's not all glad-handing, schmoozing, free drink tickets and adoring audiences. Along the way there are some dark, dank and humiliating moments. The Tour Tips series will address some of these pitfalls to better prepare the travelling artiste for his or her journey down the wrong side of the road.
Lesson 9
Production Assistant
Lesson 9 is a short film about the loss of a lover to insanity. Part horror story, noir-like mystery and disaster film, Lesson 9 weaves together shards of a narrative that has been shattered like excerpts from the journal of a lover gone mad. A disaster movie after the disaster, the film uses three different definitions of possession to form its thematic structure and to explore love, loss, sexuality and insanity.
I, Socky
Director
A sock monkey enjoysg a night on the town.
Swingers' Serenade
Director
A character referred to as "The Professor" introduces and comments on a filmed version of a supposed script from a 1960's home movie-making magazine. Even though the target audience would presumably be making the film at home and casting their friends and family, the script is an extremely suggestive tale of a housewife being seduced by a traveling salesman.
Fame Whore
Acting Coach
This film involves three interwoven stories with the only seeming connection being the delusions of the involved leads. In the first element of the film, a hot-tempered world tennis star loses endorsement contracts when the press outs him even though he claims the report is false. In the second, a talent-less woman struggles to make it in the world of fashion design or the music video business. In the last, an animal activist runs a dog-adoption agency and has an imaginary friend who appears in a St. Bernard suit.

Pillow Talk
Director
Extreme manipulation of filmic time and space combined with an impressionistic lighting scheme help create an urban spaces nightmare. A woman living by herself is having a hard time, downstairs the neighbours are fighting, next door they're having extremely loud sex, an old lady's stealing her clothes in the laundry room, and worst of all, she's no better than the rest.

And that's just the start of it...A confrontation, an assault, fists-a-flying, and traffic violations.
