Mankind Is No Island

My friend Mo sent me a link to Pop Candy regarding a blog post about the film above. She read the title and thought the article was about me, nope but it is pretty cool anyway. This was the winning film at Tropfest this year. I had no idea what Tropfest is but apparently it is a short film festival/competition where the winner gets a trip to Sydney Australia and $20,000. The winning film above was shot entirely on a cell phone and cost $57.00. It is much better than my winning piece for the Nokia Productions Movie but give me more than one day to work on something and I’ll show you what I can do. I subscribed to the Tropfest newsletter so maybe I will enter next year. I’ve always wanted to go to Australia.

What would YOU ask Spike Lee?

That is a question I need to ask myself because I am going to have a chance to interview Spike Lee in October when I go back out to L.A. for the Nokia Productions Movie. I just received word from WOM World / Nokia that I will be able to Meet Spike Lee and interview him after the premiere of the Nokia Productions Movie. I won another trip out to LA in October to go to the movie and see an Avril Lavigne concert. This was because I went to LA to shoot scenes for the Nokia Productions Movie. I certainly didn’t think I would win but apparently this video was the one that made a difference in my favor.

We used the Nokia 5310 to make our movies. I had a great time with everyone and hope we can do another Photowalk on this trip.

So, help me out, what would you ask Spike Lee? LEave me a comment and let me know.

Stephen I’ll asked for an autographed picture if I remember.
