Musical
Dara Friedman emailed last night her project Musical for the New York Public Art Fund is finished. Dara's an amazing artist and a dear friend. I was thrilled and honored when she asked me to help out with the shoot.
In October last year we spent 3 weeks shooting 50 singers on the streets of New York. While we were there her film, Revolution, was hanging in MOMA. I was lucky enough to be cinematographer on the project which was shot 10 years ago when we were both in Miami. Everything Dara does is entirely hers and utterly unique. It's such a thrill to work on projects as good as hers.

name but I do remember that she was her lunch break
when we shot her scene in Central Park

Musical will screen first at the New School (NYU) April 30th. So if you're around be sure to check it out. Don't have the details yet so watch this space.
In the meantime The Ticket continues. I'm definitely feeling energized about getting in done - I don't feel so burned out anymore. I couldn't sleep much last night - lay awake re-cutting the film in my head. Talking with Darren tonight to get it done.
