Giant Robot Store and GR2 News
That's Tim. We were on Vocalo.org radio which is an NPR show at89.5 Tim Hugh fights the good fight. That should go on the t-shirt bearing FAAIM - the film festival. While others need huge staffs, this fest gets done with the tiniest crew. I'll guess that this has to be one of the indiest film fests in the Nation that's been around for 15 years.

That’s Tim. We were on Vocalo.org radio which is an NPR show at89.5 Tim Hugh fights the good fight. That should go on the t-shirt bearing FAAIM – the film festival. While others need huge staffs, this fest gets done with the tiniest crew. I’ll guess that this has to be one of the indiest film fests in the Nation that’s been around for 15 years. This year, it’s been looking great. One of the most easy going guys is Goh Nakamura. Give him a venue and he’ll play. In this shot, we’re 43 floors up doing a streaming concert. While people are stressing, Goh can always sit back with his guitar and just play. Most of us can’t do that. We stayed at a spot that overlooked Lake Michigan. It’s almost an ocean view but not quite. Look at the view we had. That’s Goh doing his thing at the radio station. Mind you, he got rockstar and broke some gear in the studio there, but overall, he played a nice song. That’s Tim and Helga.

Giant Robot, filmmaking, and whatever comes with it, takes you places sometimes. Today, it’s Chicago. A film I made is showing tonite, a panel discussion I’m on comes up on tuesday. Meanwhile, I’m staying in a great high rise, which has not much in it. That means, I can get work done in this insanely cool setting. It’s cold outside, which means, yes, I’ll stay in.

The film will even show at the Siskel Center which by name has to be the greatest film center in the world! Right? Siskel of Siskel and Ebert! Although it’s an honor to be invited places, which actually happens often, but it’s usually for work that I’ve done. I’m now working to hopefully get invited for the things I’m doing tomorrow. What lake is this anyway? I should know, but I don’t.

Sunsets coming to a DVD store, rental shop, and even Netflix. Imagine, this film has been sitting for over ten years, we re cut it, and now it's finally going to be on DVD. This is the box cover. Pretty cool, I'd have to say, and the cover actually went through some revisions. This is the coolest and it sort of has that BlueNote feel. We recorded the director's commentary in the GR office on...
