Celebration of Short Films - Hey!


One Glass Productions' "Celebration of Short Films" on August 16th was a wild success! The Bowery Poetry Club was completely packed, thanks to our friends and filmmakers.

The only problems occurred before the screening even started. Apparently, Amiri Baraka had an event right before us. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying I have anything against good ol' Amiri, but his crowd was clearly unfamiliar with the concept of "leaving." Our event had to start 20 minutes late, causing much confusion at the door. What-ever, Mister Amiri Baraka. One Glass packed the house despite it all.

We screened two of our own films: A music video for Dawn Landes' song Bodyguard directed by Valery Estabrook, and Stephanie Testa's Mary's Little Lamb- a dark comedy based on a classic Roald Dahl story in which a woman finds herself in a sticky situation with a giant frozen leg of lamb.

In addition, we selected and screened the following films:

HAPPY THANKSGIVING MOMMY by Ry Russo-Young
LADYLIKE by Safiya Songhai
VALIJA by Louis Sparre
CHERISH by Mourrice Papi
BIG BIG BIG BIG BIG - by Allen Cordell
SEE YA! BROOKLYN! by Hsuan-Yu Pan
LA ESPERANZA by Andy Torraco
CHECK by Dale Bryant

Below I've posted more pictures of the event. 10 points if you can find yourself. And no points if you didn't come. Shame on you.









If you took pictures
at the screening, send them along! Thanks to Mourrice Papi, Stacey Testa and Glenn Navia for their photo contributions.

Questicus Horrificus is a winner!

One Glass Productions now proudly announces that our NYC 48-Hour film project entry, "Questicus Horrificus" was selected to advance into a national level of competition: Visa's "Life Takes" Invitational! We will have to make another video, and then we're being flown out to San Francisco (free!) for the screening in late September. We're both very excited. Thanks to everyone who helped out! Ethan Gould, Sonia Maksimovich, Andrew Breton, Matt Schoch, Chris Kelly, Don Badaczewksi and Mariclare Lawson: We couldn't have done it without you!

If you are unfamiliar with the 48-Hour competition, we were given a genre, character, prop, a line of dialog and asked to create a film within 48 hours. We received: Horror, a writer named Tetley Fairfax, Conference Badge and "If you must know, my father told me."

Here is our film:
