It was just a little meeting … an intimate party, a lovely celebration of the students, Paolo & Lisa of the Film Center, me, 2 mothers and a tiny bunch of film friends and neighbors. We watched all the films they / we made during the last 2 weeks (what a short time!!) and then we watched them all over again … I am glad and a little sad and very proud of them and the wabi sabi in Super 8 that is almost unexplainable but they all understood and felt it and worked with it. The special personal beautiful spirit that separates Super 8 from video. The subtle beauty that exists in the imperfect, in every day things. They got it.  Carla making a backwards bow and the fly on the lens is crawling in the same direction simultaneously!!

Hooo, I’m quite late … I wanted to tell you about yesterday evening … There was an exciting film show at the Film Center, Best of The Attack of the 50 Foot Reel - Super 8 films entirely edited in camera, 3 minutes long, the subject was documentary. Saw some amazing films about a cat living on the Empire State Building, men dedicated to trains, animals under a microscope, ducks designing fancy dresses, and many more … Check them out at www.flickerla.com!!
