varoeldur and "Lime and Davenport"

oh, goodness, it's been so long since i've written, lovelies, i'm sorry. there's been so much going on!

i've just gotten the final cut of a video i costumed for a Sigur Ros contest, based on facebook and twitter votes. we worked on the song varoeldur.you can see it here: please vote for us and share with your friends!! you can vote once through your twitter and once through your facebook ;) as the director said, "Varoeldur strikes the note of a funeral dirge, but with a note of hopefulness. Here, we see a funeral procession in reverse, highlighting the longing for death to be unmade."

let me know what you think!

additionally, The Many Monsters of Sadness, which premiered at the Nashville Film Festival is also an official selection of the Cincinnati Film Festival and the Louisville Film Festival. i am so thrilled! if you're in the area, please stop by and say hi!

i also worked on a film by Paper Ghost Pictures called, "Lime and Davenport" for which i won best costume award due to the high number of changes and their accuracy. this film also won an audience award, best makeup, best in genre, and best actress. and you can see it here!



oh, i missed you! tell me what you are doing!

Best Part Productions - FEAR NO ART

Best Part Productions is a Nashville based production company started by Chad and Trey McClarnon, and includes various collaborations with writers, producers, H/MUA, actors, editors, musicians, engineers, and yours truly as wardrobe/costumer/stylist. Chad, Trey, and I have worked together on several projects since knowing each other, including the short film "without."

 

(Official Trailer for "without" - a Chad McClarnon Short Film from Chad McClarnon on Vimeo.)

This film was originally part of the Nashville 48 hour Film Festival (during which teams write, shoot, edit, score, and fully create an entire short film in just 48 hours and compete to win various prices.). "without" won a prize for art direction, which includes my work as the costumer for the film! it was very exciting. further, i am actually in the film (and you can see me in the trailer) and was one of the writers.  Best Part also produced another short film called "A New Life," about a young, newly married couple, which includes my sweet bunny's work as a musician and engineer.

These films were made with the tireless dedication and immense talent of an incredible group of people who are dedicated to these films and to sharing our art with the world. We've dedicated our time and resources to pieces we believe in deeply- and with which we have something to say. Consequently, are currently running a kickstarter to fund submission fees for film festivals, which you can find here- http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1185022472/a-new-life-and-without-film-festival-run

I hope you'll be able to participate in our kickstarter, either by pledging or sharing this link with your networks. Your help is greatly appreciated!!
