Interview with Poptub!


Before the screening in New York, I was asked to do a quick interview with Maria Sansone of Poptub about the documentary. They did a great job of cutting together the interview with excerpts from the trailer (which is a good thing because the less time I am on camera the better, and I suspect most people would be watching Maria anyway!)

It's nice to get some initial press going for the film and I am still getting use to this whole interview thing. I never really thought that I'd be doing interviews about the film..I figured that I would just make this film, put it out there and that would be it. Now, it things like putting together press kits, publicity photos, bios, etc. Phew!

Here is the the interview. Thanks again to everyone at Poptub!

Interview with BBC Radio's Pods and Blogs show

Who would have guessed that my first piece of media to promote the film would come from the UK?

I did a phone interview with Jamillah Knowles of the show "Pods and Blogs" on BBC radio's 5 Live show. I was the second guest on the podcast and I had a great time talking with Jamilla about the film. You can listen to the interview here.

Interview with Tilzy.tv at NYC Screening

I had a chance to do a quick interview with Josh Cohen of Tilzy.tv right after the screening in New York.

It's strange doing interviews after being on the other side of the camera asking the questions and I have to admit I'm not very good at it yet. Perhaps some media training is in order (Nalts, are you available?)

Anyway Josh had some great questions for me including the one I had not prepared for and that was "Why are you not posting the film in YouTube?"

Here is a link to the interview

Screening in New York at FYI



On Wednesday October 22nd we had a small screening at For Your Imagination studios in New York, with Paul Kontonis of FYI as the host. It was a fun evening with a small group (about25-30 folks) and the film seemed very well received.

Before the screening, I did an interview with Maria Sansone of PopTub, and afterwords another interview with Josh Cohen of Tilzy.tv. I will post links to both in separate posts later.

Our good friend (and one of the stars of the film) Kevin Nalty ("Nalts") helped pull this screening together. (Thats Nalts above doing an interview of me for Daisy Whitney's New Media Minute)

New Trailer up...

I posted a new trailer for the film. I think this one better represents more of what the documentary is about. Pulled the first one down from YouTube last night as it did not really tell too much about the film and this new one is a much better representation of the content.
