sample quotes...
"Ross likes to mix different kinds of media in his films creating an
intriguing feel that's hard to turn away from (see Bitter Old Man). "

"One thing is for sure, Ross will remain one of the all-time
innovative leaders in the microcinema movement."

I thought I'd shout it to the heavens when the
movies I'm involved with are mentioned.

Why does someone seek press? It isn't the glorification of one's own ego - at least that would be stupid. If someone other than yourself finds your work to be press-worthy, it's a validation to said work. It will also expose yourself and your work to the public and reach more people. It increase the value of yourself and your works as commodities.

If you want to be discovered, be someone where people can find you.
 
Hope it's not too late for me to do a short review, too. :)

I bought the "Best of SonnyBoo" DVD when it became available. I was pretty sure I'd seen most of the shorts before (via the 'net, as usual) but that was no worry. I knew in advance that I'd be liking what I was getting!

Shipment of DVD was really fast; got an email notification when it shipped as well, which is always good. DVD arrived in sturdy bubble-pack... no chance of damaging the goodies therein.

So much goodness crammed onto this DVD. Many of the classic bits like:

Line of Masculinity ("Bank Lady"?!)
Elevator (close to Pythonesque)
Bank Robbery (dang Trekkies!)
Back Office tales (several)...
...and... Why DO They Call It Filmmaking?

The only (very minor) bit that I didn't care for was the auto-start to the films, on insertion. Straight to menu-select is just my preference, especially with shorts... but like i said, minor detail.

If you like to laugh at comic slices of life, this is a great DVD. It has its serious moments too, with Bitter Old Man and Asphyxiated Heart... and Zoe the Super8 Dog will lift you up a bit when things are seem glum. (Who doesn't love bubbles?!)

I got my bang for buck from this, for sure.

(Although I do often wonder whether Mr Boo will ever solve that giant Rubick's Cube he is always holding) 8)
