IT’S HAPPENING….

After 3 years, our 35mm ballet film “NY Export: Opus Jazz” has officially been acquired by Channel 13 (WNET) for its 2010 Great Performances/Dance in America series.

The film is an adaptation of a 1958 ballet by Jerome Robbins starring dancers from New York City Ballet and shot on location all over New York City.

In 2007 we shot 1 movement from the ballet on the Highline.  Over the next 6 weeks we will be shooting the remaining 4 movements and many adjoining scenes.

Big shout-out to our Executive Producers (and NYCB dancers) Ellen & Sean and especially to our lawyer John for putting this whole thing together.

We start shooting in ONE WEEK!  Stay tuned….

Super-8 Wedding

Our dear friends Gabe & Liz got married about a month ago in Amagansett (I was Gabe’s best man) and Supermarché pulled out the stops.  We had 4 super-8 cameras rolling (Me, Rel, Nev and Max Joseph) one HVX-200 (Joe Anderson) and a Canon 5D Mark II.  It’s going to be the best wedding video ever.

The wedding got a full page in The New York Times!

Plus, their documentary “Wade in the Water Children” is getting released on DVD soon.
