Thanks for reading and Ill have more for you soon.

Of course the first category I looked at was the readers’ choice award for best Filmmaker.  Here were the results:

1. Jourdan McClure
2. Ryan Todd
3. Mike Carroll and Sarah Kreutz (tie)

Ryan and Mike are both fantastic filmmakers, but I wasn’t as familiar with Jourdan or Sarah (although I knew Jourdan won an award for the Sac Music Seen portion of the Sac Film and Music Festival this year). 

Thank you Internet.

An interview with Jourdan for Fringe magazine and one with Sarah at Indie Fest USA where she was publicizing her movie Elsa Letterseed.  Congrats to all the winners.

the common men

Saturday night was the Sac Music Seen program of the Sacramento Film and Music Festival, where over 20 music videos from local filmmakers, paired with local musicians were shown.  Lots of really cool videos (too many to name– and I’d say that the quality of videos was a giant step up from last year).  Starting off the night was a short documentary about the Sac Music Seen, followed by the Bennys video for We Be One (directed by Erik Espera and John Jiminez).  Fun stuff.

Also, we had a music video (Mr Volcano– Bass Rocs) that premiered at the program.  A definite learning experience.  It didn’t look up to par on the big screen.  Two words– NTSC Monitor (Or is that 5 words?).  As in, we have to use one– mine is broken.  Very dissapointing, but again- it was a learning experience.  There is always next year.  Mr Volcano and Lil V came through– which was cool. I have a little video from the event that I will try to post if I get time this week.

I know I have posted ad nauseum on this one, but I just sent out my first press release, and I was so excited about the fact that I had a need for a press release– I’ve decided to post it here

Dumbworld Video and Film Productions to world premiere the music video for the single, Bass Rocs by Mr Volcano, Featuring The Rocket Scientist at the Sac Music Seen program of the Sacramento Film and Music Festival

Sacramento, California, USA –  On Second Saturday, in downtown Sacramento- at the historic Crest Theatre- August 9th at 7:30pm—Dumbworld is proud to present the music video for the single, Bass Rocs, by Mr. Volcano featuring the Rocket Scientist. 

The musical artist, Mr. Volcano can only be described as a masked emcee with an ill mean streak who is bent on world domination, and only Dumbworld could create a video to match.  The video would have to be described as Nacho Libre meets Frankenstein meets Rocky.

The festival marks the world premiere of the video, along with the showing of over 20 other videos by Sacramento filmmakers teamed up with Sacramento musicians, in the Sac Music Seen program of The Sacramento Film and Music Festival.   Be early because you won’t want to miss the fireworks (Will there really be fireworks, you ask?  Trust me, we have seriously thought about looking into filing the necessary permits with the powers that be).

A teaser for a music video that we did for the Sac Music Seen portion of the Sacramento Film and Music Festival.  This teaser is the prologue for the music video– showing Lil V (Mr. V as a young one, before his goal of world domination).

Above is a graphic that we created for the Bass Rocs video that will be showing as part of the Sac Music Seen program at the Sacramento Film and Music Festival.  It is the “cover” of a comic book for the video.  The theme of the video is a comic book about the adventures of Mr Volcano.  In this particular episode, Mr Volcano fights Mascara contra Mascara (Mask against Mask) with the sinister and mysterious El Carnicero (The Butcher).  Loser loses their mask.

I should have a teaser and some more images up in the next couple of days.
