Warren Report 5.28.15

From Brett Jacobsen (MFA 03) “Fated, a short film I acted in is screening at the Dances with Films festival in Hollywood on Saturday, May 30th in a block of shorts that start at 2:45pm. It is playing last in the block (which, based on film school screening rules, is a pretty good spot). It’s a high tech comedy that is fit for all ages. Also, on Thursday June 11th at 7:30pm a feature film that I had the pleasure of acting in is playing at LACMA as part of the LA Film Festival. It’s called “Too Late” and is especially robust Warren Report material because it’s written and directed by Film School alum Dennis Hauck (MFA 03) and shot on 35mm film. It’s a gritty detective story staring John Hawkes and a great supporting cast of characters (including me). Other FSU alums on the film include Producer Taylor Feltner (BFA 04), Cinematographer Bill Fernandez (MFA 03), Costume Designer Gillian Zwick, Camera Operator George Reasner (MFA 94), Gaffer Bill Persaud (BFA 01), Assistant Costume Designer Kim Rice (MFA 06), Ryan Lynch (MFA 02) did some G&E (I believe) and Film School student-that-got-away Mike "G” (Gioulakis) worked as a Gaffer as well. I hope I’m not leaving anyone out.

MTV picked up a clip of one of my favorite scenes of the film, and it got 4 star reviews in the UK from The Guardian, The Daily Mirror, The Star (UK), and the Toronto Star (all of them online and in real live newsprint!). In FSU-land, SPRING had Michael Felker editing, Will Sampson on steadicam/drone, and Brian Barrow coloring. Check out the MTV thing in which it is amusingly called a "Hyped Travel Sex Horror": http://www.mtv.co.uk/new-movies/news/watch-exclusive-clips-from-hyped-travel-sex-horror-spring . And if anyone wants to see the movie in the US, it's out on most platforms where movies can be watched: http://drafthousefilms.com/film/spring” Tallahassee: The Lee's Place (a local grief, loss and trauma therapy center) DoveTales committee is working to secure a videographer for the event this year. We feel an historical record from year to year will serve us in many aspects. Is it possible that a film school student would like to take on this project for community service? The challenge, from a videoing standpoint, is the dim lighting used in the Legion Hall for the event. The date of the event is Friday October 23, 2015 from 8-10 pm, at the Legion Hall.
