MH meets Vimeo

Aw I figured I've kept you all waiting long enough- the complete version of Margot and Henry is now available on Vimeo. Watch it right over here. Of course this doesn't mean you don't need to purchase your very own copy on DVD. A hot item for a stocking stuffer, or Hanuka Hanuka-er!

I love Wisconsin!

The fest went great! Our screening was sold out, and the Q and A was slightly less awkward than usual.
We met tons of neat-o filmmakes. Here are my new favorite people:

-The folks from Zero Trooper - F (these guys were rad! I can't wait to see your next project!)

-Sara and Naomi from Twisted; a Ballonametary,

-The dudes and MC Router from Nerdcore for Life

We also saw this great short called "A Very Sunny Morning" by Eric Carter. I totes love it.

Check out our photos from the weekend!

Interview in Dane 101

I just did an interview about MH with Jesse Russell, editor of Dane101.com which is a collaborative blog for Madison, WI. I think it came out AOK. Jesse Russell seems totally cool, and I hope to do much hanging out when we go to the Wisconsin FF.
Here's the interview.

The full music video to the song "Where's My Motherfucking Wallet" is done!

Thanks Leo and Andrew and Cate for making such a neat song for the movie!

Screening went great!

The campus screening of Margot and Henry went very well! The movie got lots of laughs and a big applause.

We'll be taking the film back into the editing room to fix a few technical issues, and then I PROMISE we'll start making DVDs for anyone who wants one. So expect DVDs by the end of June.

Thanks to everyone who came to the show on Monday, and all the other filmmakers who screened (great work friends!)

About the film

"Margot and Henry Have an Adventure" is a short film directed by Rachel Wolther and produced by Jason Klorfein. It stars Laura Skokan and Michael Larimer. The film was shot on 16mm over six days in Febuary 2007, in and around Evanston Illinois, and was completed as part of classwork at Northwestern University.

The film is an offbeat comedy about two idiot friends. Henry wants to get laser eye surgery so Margot sells her eggs.
