What a fantastic winter it was, the "best winter yet" as I wrote in the guestbook at the Halifax Backpacker's Hostel, where I lived and worked and edited and recorded sound for Overland. A huge THANK YOU! to Michelle Strum, the hostel's owner, who once again indulged my artistic endeavors and tolerated my do-as-I-like-as-long-as-it-gets-done work routine. I screened the first Leg of Overland at the hostel on Friday, and so far people are digging the film it seems. I am fired up to get to the second Leg! I arrived in Montreal this morning, where I will show the cut for some friends, and drop off some DVDs with an eye towards presenting the full film here on our fall tour. We're showing in Winnipeg on April 15th or 16th, venue to be announced. On this tour I'm also taking up the camera to continue work on Fragmented/Fused with dancers Alexandra Elliott, Karissa Fyrrar, and Kyle Syverson, in front of the green screen if we can find one in Winnipeg, Vancouver, and Saskatoon. More from the road in the coming days, and much love and thanks to the amazing friends in Halifax who supported me through the Overland process. I'll miss you all until we meet again! A special thanks also to director/editor Caley Maclennan for showing me where to trim the fat. On tour!
