Two Festival Premiers

Hey there folks

I've been a little lax about posting on the blog of late... life has been busy here in Portland, and the heat is back. With temperatures in the 90's, I don't feel much like sitting in my home office and being productive.

I did, however, want to let you know that two films I'm involved with are going to have their festival premiers next month:

First off, Trish and I got word over the weekend that From Kilimanjaro With Love is going to have its festival premier at Indiefest, USA in Anaheim California sometime between August 8th and 15th (the screening schedule hasn't been announced yet). Trish has a major part in this feature film, and I provided fight choreography. It's a fun little adventure movie romp; if you're down in Southern California in mid-August check the Indiefest web site to see when the film is playing (we do know that it's going to be shown at the AMC Theaters in Downtown Disneyland). The venue address is on the home page at http://www.haroldphillips.net/.

The very next week in Louisville, KY the Fright Night Film Festival will host the festival premier of Sum of the Parts, the suspense/ Sci-Fi film I shot back in 2006. It's taken director Raymond Steers just about ten years to get to this point... he started filming the movie in 1998, took a break, completed the film in 2006, had an official premier at the Hollywood Theater here in Portland in 2007, and now is having his first festival screening. He deserves a major pat on the back for stick-to-itiveness.

So, if you're in the Louisville, KY area (the showings will be at the Clarion Hotel and Convention Center - again, details are on the home page at http://www.haroldphillips.net) some time between August 15 - 17 (no screening time announced yet), pop in and take a look. The film is quite a ride!

Well, that's it for now... time to hit the road for a day-job appointment or two. Hope you're all doing well!
