Sundance Launch - An Elmo Connection and the Pumping Rythm

As we stand in line for the opening night party....one of my producing partners (MacKenzie Smith) begins to work the people in line, finding out what they are in Park City for...


...what films they are supporting and first up is someone who has connections with Being Elmo, a film about Kevin Clash the muppet performer which is being featured at Sundance definitely a must see), next up we meet with Onur Tukel from SimianNation.com who we meet, having done design and art for one of the films here at the festival, then we meet David Miller (producer) and his director who are working on shorts now and plan to work on multiple feature films in the future...


Other than the draconian drink limitations (really, it's the opening party of the film festival and EVERYONE is limited to three drinks max) the party was a terrific mix of flamboyant party-goers and fun-seekers, but luckily we were only on the hunt for like-minded filmmakers and there were many to be had....

...tomorrow we are off to pick up our Slamdance passes and a whole new world of film festivals as we hit the indie fest pretty hard with interviews, photos and more...

...to be continued.
