  Happy New Year everyone!
  
  A couple of updates in the strange life of making films.
  
  A film that I was the cinematographer for, entitled EXPLODING GIRL directed by Bradley Rust Gray, will premiere at the Berlin Film Festival! It stars Zoe Kazan (Revolutionary Road) and Mark Rendall and was written and directed by Bradley Rust Gray. If any AnD'ers will be out in Berlin, please stop by.
  
  Below is the press release from Berlinale:
  " The Exploding Girl by Bradley Rust Gray is another quietly staged emotional drama. During their summer vacation, Ivy and Al discover that a shift from “best friends” to lovers may be on the cards. It is, however, precisely their familiarity that now represents a barrier between them."

  For you film geeks out there, we shot on the Red One camera with a skeletal crew.
  
  Secondly, my script, WHY WE PULL THE TRIGGER, was accepted to FILM INDEPENDENT's Director's Film Lab. For those who don't know, similar to the Sundance labs, the FIND director's lab is a program in which FIND selects 8 directors with scripts and partners them with seasoned feature film directors to help workshop the script, rehearse with actors, and shoot a few scenes from the script. For anyone with a script burning a hole through their pocket, I highly recommend applying. I'm looking forward to meeting some future partners in crime out there.
  
  I'll keep you posted on how it all goes.
