to get people together who might be thinking along the same lines. I’m really glad we did, and no matter where it goes, the mission has already been accomplished as far as I’m concerned. I can now name 3 new videoblogs from the island that didn’t exist in 2005.
There’s Steve’s Gallery, from Steve Mansour who also took the job as movl’s webmaster and made sure it wasn’t just Mike and I drinking alone at La Cabane (and in the future!). My co-worker at EyeSteelFilm John Christou has found the video capture on his new still camera and is taking it into indie-rock dens and film industry schmoozes at Sweet Sweet Heat. And NFB CitizenShift podcastereeno Matthew Forsythe is showing off his considerable design, illustration and video talents in Coming Up For Air.
We’ll all be meeting at the next movl meeting, Tuesday March 7th, @ Laika @ 7pm.
