Light at the End

Click to View
This is a strange little movie mainly because of the real-time track captured from the radio playing at the time. I wonder if the "Light at the End of the Tunnel" myth preceded covered bridges and tunnels or vice-versa. I will say that I am always grateful to have made it to the other side.

Sanctuary

Click to View

9 min. 20 sec.

It's been a while since my last post. This video was taken back in July of 2006, on a weekend trip to Kezar Lake, Maine. The backdrop was the 4th of July. I edited this together after the 5 year anniversary of 9/11. My feelings were not of country, or patriotism, but more of melancholy and appreciation. I was not quite sure if I have a movie here, for it is quite long, but I decided to put it out there for you folks to decide.
The hauntingly beautiful score is by Suzanne Teng, the album is called, "Enchanted Wind," and the track is called, "Light of the Heart."

Check out Suzanne Teng at Magnatune.

A Most Famous Work of Art, Part 2



























An extraordinary event took place for me most recently. My sister, Judi, in L.A., emailed me suggesting that I visit the Yahoo! homepage. She recognized that a video of mine entitled, "A Most Famous Work of Art," was featured on Yahoo's new look homepage. This is a video I uploaded to Yahoo Videos weeks before. The images you see are of the screenshot taken by Judi from her computer that morning, July 5th, 2006.

Rebecca Rossi, a friend in Italy, made this charming cheese commercial. This is her first experience making a commercial! I think she did a fantastic job. I am so happy to be able to share it. Enjoy! But be forewarned, after viewing it, you might get an undying urge to run to the refrigerator, and snack out on cheese.

During three snowy New England days, and nights, I captured a timelapse of a Christmas Cactus flower going through its blooming process.

What's amazing to me is the changes in color and light, and the movement of the plant throughout.

The incredible track is by Kitka, from their Wintersongs album. The track is called Betlehem Betlehem, from Magnatune.
