Here is a version of the original New Deal that I cut together with the remixed version.
So... I'm late. Sorry. But still present! This is my Sundance rollcall. :D (AKA: I can't believe I released a record of my ugly mug on the internet. BKA: please ignore my new haircut. I look like a 12 year old boy. And sound like a girly chipmunk.)
Anyway. I am ready, willing and able (also extremely excited) to hitrecord for Sundance! I wish I were there. But sadly, I can't be there/ I explain why in the video. :P
I will end this by saying... Hello! You! Yes you! Very eager to work with you. I heard you're awesome. :D
This is the version of Dance Dance Repetition that screened at Sundance 2010.
Here it is, Joe. I made it shorter. 37 sec. Couldn't get below. Hope it'll fit.
HitRECord's animated short about the Prop 8 trial, transparency, media, freedom and the future. Made collaboratively during the Sundance Film Festival.
Complete listing of resources coming as soon as I get home from Utah.
Interviewing folks on the street in Park City.
Made & screened at Sundance Film Festival 2010.
This bumper was made after Banksy made his presence known in Park City. I animated two photographs of his local work together. Then during our Remarks session on the 24th, Joe brought two people up from the audience to RECord voiceovers for the two characters. Finally, we wanted to show how close one of the Banksy pieces was to the REC Room, so Joe decided to RECord the journey.
Find the Sun, as it screened at Sundance 2010.
The only sonnet I know by heart. Sonnet 29.
Interviewing folks on the street in Park City.
It started as a couple conversations with the inimitable Sean Lennon, and look how far it's come! This is the version of Nebulullaby that screened at Sundance 2010. (Leaving UT today, we'll be updating with cited Resources and a new higher quality file with the proper aspect ratio soon )
The original video shot by Tarin (uploaded by Dr. Gory) really affected me the moment I saw it. I happened to check the newest RECords and there it was. I was floored.
What really hit me was how small the world really is. I mean, all of us - this community - was a part of that exchange between Mr. Redford and Joe. What they discussed was what we all do together, and what is being shown to people at Sundance.
We may be all over the world, but we're also all together. Part of a new frontier. Together.
This was a very special project to REmix and I hope everyone enjoys it.
This is the version of Morgan M. Morganson's Date with Destiny that screened at Sundance 2010. Throughout the festival, this is the one we'd show as our example. Whenever anybody asked, "what is hitRECord?" this was my answer: "Here, watch this short film we're making; you'll never believe who did it and how!"
Albert proposed an off-kilter writing exercise, and then Metaphorest's beautifully strange short story inspired it all. I read the story aloud, Jenyffer.Maria started drawing the characters, Tori animated Jen's drawings, Lula and I did a live-action rendition, Lawrie Brewster took the project to soaring heights with his gorgeous visuals, and along the way there was the help, encouragement and roughly 180 contributions from throughout our community. We brought it to Sundance, and Nathan coaxed the lush and vast music out of the newly coined hitRECorchestra. (Good_Girl_Indie has written out a fabulously detailed timeline documenting what happened and when along this RECord's progression.)
Not only did we close our (two) official hitRECord screening(s) in the New Frontier Microcinema with this piece, but the next day, Sundance added it as a short film to play before the award-winning feature HOMEWRECKER on a much bigger screen.
I actually watched the thing again just now. And I can whole-heartedly say that, besides the progressive methodology with which it was made, and besides the warm reception it received at Sundance, just purely as a little piece of art, as a short film, as a RECord -- I'm as proud of Morgan M. Morgansen's Date with Destiny as I am of any work I've ever done.
Thank you, everyone, for making it all happen!
and thanks again...

[PS] [updating soon with higher-res file, proper aspect ratio (!) and there's still more resources left to cite, etc, etc, etc...]
