I blinked and made a short film? My friend recently started an artist collective, and one of the flagship activities involves hosting parties with queer and femme DJs and/or musical talent. I take the theme and then create something to go alongside the party. This party was called Spring Fling and is about rebirths and awakenings. I reached out to friends to help me create a non-linear short film that tells the "Awakening" stories of 4 women. Pseudo-interview style, and improvised/"real" stories. We posted initial cut, and I couldn't be more thankful for the opportunity to make art with and for my friends!

i was in such a creative rut before i started a short film workshop with my friends and whoever it reached by word of mouth. such a sweet little crew we got together, making movies every week, giving feedback, tryna be better... helps to formalize things sometimes even if it's people you know, just giving yourself permission to be serious and playful
named it video life after the chris spedding song
we're having our screening march 3rd if for some fateful reason you find yourself in copenhagen at that time

I really love film and wanna break into that world one day, but for now I'm just starting with making scrappy stuff with friends. The whole thing sounded so intimidating, like what do you mean I have to give people a script and put a camera in front of their face and ask them to pretend to be someone else??? That takes a lot of vulnerability I think.
Turns out it's so much fun and I need to start doing it more. This first silly video is in fact for a competition my university library is holding to make a promotional short for the libraries. Lowkey don't think we achieved the goal but I hope some student worker gets a laugh.
Yeah so check it out it's only 60 seconds.

Two of my friends and I want to make a film but like...not a film? I'm just having fun with videos and editing. That's all I just wanted to say that bc I'm excited :3. Also we don't watch films very often so any fun light hearted short films, videos, ect? My current inspiration is Jump Tomorrow (2001), directed by Joel Hopkins.

I have been making more efforts to explore references without meddling of algorithms. Goodbye Pinterest. Goodbye endless "recommended for you" scrolling. I booked an appointment at the archive library of this Japanese streetwear brand called Vowels in NYC. The creative director has over 2000 fashion, culture, photography, and design related magazines and books that spanned over 4 decades. I was able to choose books out of the 200 or so that were out in the store, and they had scanners. I had the time of my life. I felt like a researcher, a real curator. This is small first step in rebuilding my critical eye & references free from digital interference.

I love salons. I love intentional spaces for artists, writers, thinkers, clowns, performers yappers, educators, etc. etc. can convene to share ideas, just because.
Recently went to a salon called Salon 4J. Its not exactly a "public" salon, but I love that it has "branding" so to speak. This was an "After Dark" edition, so the topics were pretty spicy. History of "Horny Cinema", dance floor make-outs, yoni massages and a short story involving a queer woman living with the ghost of an actress from an iconic yiddish film were the topics du jour. All hosted in an apartment, very intimate, with artwork done by the host's badass grandma. Cutest snacks. What I love about salons is that they're not exclusive, and anyone can come if you have know someone and have a partiful link. If you host a salon please invite me.
