Goodbye Myra

Several hundred short films are already competing for a variety of awards at the NoTodoFilmFest, but one section is still open to participants. In “A film by… Alejandro Amenábar“, the renowned director sets up a premise from which each participant can develop their own story in a maximum time of three minutes and thirty seconds.

This year I take part in a Notodo for the first, with not one but two films. The first one is a project by my partner Günther in which I ended up involved to the core – to the point that it’s finished even before my own. It’s called Goodbye Myra and it’s already available at the website of the festival.

We’ll be expecting your comments!

Lost. Execute.

Spanish TV channel Cuatro has invited LOST fans to create posters for the 6th season of the show using only their own graphic material. I came up with the image you can see here. The text reads: “LOST. SEASON 6. EXECUTE.”

At the time of writing, the poster presides the selection of favourites of the website.

Additionally, if nothing goes wrong, the image will be published this weekend, along with other selected fan-made posters, on EP3, the cultural suplement of the national newspaper El País.

To celebrate the little happy event, I’ve open a small new section of the site devoted to my published graphic works.

New year, new leisure

With the new year I’ve restarted and redesigned one of my favourite (and more useless) sections of the site: Offline. I use it as an inventory of the cultural products I use: books, movies, music, games, etc. For what purpose? None of importance, but several minor ones, from keeping track to showing what I like. I also use it for the Spanish-language creative writing workshop: it keeps my memory fresh when looking for examples to illustrate the lessons, and it also tells participants which titles I know and can discuss.

Hope you like – but if you don’t… that’s fine, I have so much fun updating it anyway ;-D Happy new year!

Dressed to impress

A large refurbishment has taken place on the website, not so much on the looks as on the contents. We’ve focused on the Movies section in order to have everything ready for the opening of the LesGaiCineMad festival tomorrow. Fidel Martínez and myself will be in Madrid for the next few days to promote Mrs. Carrington and find support for new projects. Wish us good luck!
