Hello from smoggy, hot, wish-I-had-air-conditioning Toronto,

News this month - If you look at the index page of this site you'll notice a few little changes. First, I finally put up a brief page about the Rentz documentary (the link for it is under "Current Project"). I will expand on this basic page in the coming months with stills and more info. The Rentz doc is really getting exciting now. My producer and I can hardly wait to get into the editing room. For practice I made a very cool "demo" DVD of the footage we shot so far - it had an interactive menu and strange (but not altogether unpleasant) Western music. I can now say I am officially satisfied with my DVD burning capabilities.

Secondly, on the main page I have posted a graphic and paragraph about my *new* documentary on the fascinating world of dollhouse miniatures. This is in pre PRE production. I plan to shoot (hopefully, fingers crossed ... please please please have funding come through) next Spring. If you would like to discuss filming your own collection of miniatures, or if you are an artisan who creates miniatures please do not hesitate to contact me by phone or e-mail. You can also volunteer to help pay for this film. Seriously, I will give fantastic glowing credits to anyone who helps me finance this very worthy documentary.

I saw "Farenheiht 9/11" and I have lots to say, but that will have to wait until another time. Go out and support documentary! See a doc in theatres! ... and Spiderman 2.... which has already made a gazillion dollars but was very good nonetheless.
