Hi folks,
My latest DVX production is the short film "POSTERING."
I'm very excited that it was selected for the Toronto Urban Film Festival! This is a festival for one-minute silent films, and the winners are screening on the Toronto subway TV screens. Our film will play on Tuesday, September 11. If you're in Toronto, keep your eyes open underground!
We also need your vote. The Toronto Urban Film Festival has an online component. You can watch the films and vote for your favourite. Please check out "POSTERING" and give us your vote!

"POSTERING" is about 1/3 of the way down the list of films.
Here's the scoop on the film itself:
SYNOPSIS
"Poster" - it's a verb, a noun, and a hot topic in Toronto. This film explores postering and the many forms it takes in this city. Free speech isn't always pretty, but postering has been upheld by the Supreme Court as an important form of self expression. You can learn a lot about every neighbourhood in Toronto by looking at the posters that are displayed - or how quickly they get torn down. "Postering" is a quick look at some of these images, issues and debates.
BEHIND THE SCENES
"POSTERING" was shot on a variety of media -- 24P video (DVX-100), Super 8 (Plus-X black & white shot on an AGFA Movexoom 10), 35mm stills and DSLR stills. The film was edited at 24P on Final Cut Pro, and had a 3:2 pulldown added for the 30i submission to the festival. The festival required a silent film, but a soundtrack has been composed for a version of the film with sound. A longer version (3 to 5 minutes) is also being prepared.
Thanks for your support!
