2007-Jun-6 - Oh no...not another Blame it on Rio!
An American film crew has been filming down on the beach at Ipanema...lots of young babes in brief bikinis doing crazy things for the camera, the only person not sighted was Michael Caine so there was an instant sigh of relief that these guys weren't shooting "Blame it Rio 2".

2007-Jun-3 - film festivals
Is there anyone out there whose film is doing the rounds on the independent film festival circuit? Everytime I open my inbox I'm inundated with deadlines for art house and other international film festivals.....the whole scene appears amazingly energetic!
I'm not too sure how lucrative they are, I do know from experience that music content never gets a proper budget allocation at art festivals. However, it seems to me that if you're tapped into a good distribution network that focusses on the art house market, then it could be a winner..... with the proviso that the content of the film captured the hearts and minds.

2007-Jun-3 - Hey..I'm on!
Hi Guys....greetings from Rio.
I've been writing stories about life in Rio de Janeiro for near on 5 years; this city is an amazing place by anyones standard but sometimes it all gets a little too funky and we have to either circle the wagons or stage a full retreat.
Over the last 2 year I've become totally passionate about the genre of short film and the need to get some of my subject matter out there.......Oh Rio beautiful Rio...but unfortunately today there are no sun-kissed bossa novas heard around Rio, only a growing chorus of cries for survival.

About Me
I live in Rio de Janeiro, a crazy but beautiful city.
As a gringo, I have my own personal view of this city, Sure enough it's an amazing place but if it not for the violence and the daily cycle of muggings, car jackings, drug wars and corruption, who could ever afford the price of the real estate to live in such sumptuous surroundings!
