Surrey, BC - Aug 17, 2004
This was a videoclip I made last August that I selected randomly from my hard drive to turn into a movie. I haven’t made a movie clip in months, and I had this sudden urge to play with iMovie. (Oh, and of course it had to be at 3:30 in the morning or something like that. That seems to be my usual time of day for video and music editing.)
The kids were giving a puppet show, and I was holding Megan on my lap and filming with the other hand. She was not only the guest star, she was a critic and part of the audience. Tough job, being in show biz…
It was the first time I really fiddled around with iMovie, so it’s pretty rough. No doubt I’ll improve as I go along. After all, the last movie editing software I used was Quicktime Pro, and that requires a lot of fiddling. iMovie has a lot more features, but it’ll take me a while to figure them all out.

The feel-good film of the year! An inspiring use of deus ex machina in the form of the bucket. And a delightful cameo by up-and-comer Megan.
I love independent films. Sequel! Sequel!

I’ll see if the key players can get their contracts extended. The gigs are hard to come by up here in Hollywood North, but they make do.
The MJEs are a creative bunch.

Ah wonderful!
I laughed, I cried, I had to watch it two more times!
A delightful performance. Are there any biographies I can read about these talented thespians?
