Default simple things you can do to support the arts

As we begin to near the still-to-be-announced release date of my next film, gravida (2007), there's some stuff you can check out in the meanwhile that's associated with what will surely be one of your favorite short films of 2007 made by someone who's posts you read on a semi-regular basis.

You could, for example, go to the film's Official webpage, where you can check out images and the teaser and other various things.

You could watch L'Attente (2006), the film the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette called "intriguingly spare" in all its splendor here

Or, more importantly, you could head over to MySpace and listen to the wonderful music that'll appear in the film, like Ilona V and her song "Good Morning" (link), which will also be coming out on vinyl (yeah, vinyl) sometime next month.

You could also check out Meaghan Smith, who I'm still trying to convince to join the party (link), and tell her how wonderful you think her music would be in my film, use hyperbole as needed. (for this one, you should probably use my real name instead of pryor, just so you don't confuse her)

Finally, you could go check out my good friend Jerome Wincek (link), as talented and generous a soul as you'll ever find. His song "Careless Love" is going to be in the film, but it isn't on his MySpace profile. You can, however, do what I did and purchase his Astral Road album here.

Now, get thee to the internets.

This is a self pimp thread? Woot!

You could check out my photographs. But I suppose it would only be 'local' if you were close to Denver.

Other simple things you could do are going to local galleries and shows and maybe buying from local artists.

pryor,

i sent a message to meaghan smith but i do not know whether or not she'll even read it...i am, after all, just a nobody. hopefully she'll respond but it's been a couple of days.

that's great that you got the other two lined up, though. congrats.

Go see [censored]? Seems like going to see [censored] would do it.

plus, you were very helpful in pointing me in her direction

I try to help those that I can [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

i came across something else interesting, too. not what you were looking for, but a composer who'd done a few scores (like Man of La Mancha) -- nothing too exciting, but she'd just gotten on myspace and only had maybe 48 friends. i think i wrote her name down somewhere, on my other desk...

i'd never really thought of semi-hollywood composers as struggling before. novel.
