Um, hi?
Okay, evidently I kind of suck at this whole blog-keeping thing. Mostly because I don’t have the kind of philosophical fire in the belly about what we’re doing here at Comstock Films that Tony does. I tend to be on the more practical end of things here, and I think I get caught up in the details of that (as one tends to with work) and it feels mundane and not really anything worth writing about.
But I have to say I’m pretty excited about the upcoming screening of Damon & Hunter at the Melbourne Underground Film Festival, not only because of the screening itself (because, like, duh, of course I’m excited about that!) but because I got to design the poster promoting the screening, and…it came out pretty freaking cool if I do say so myself.
I know you’ve probably already seen this on Tony’s blog… but I don’t care! There appears to be some genuine buzz brewing down in Melbourne over this thing and it’s been fun to be a part of it.

In the midst of a great time haring around town seducing all and sundry with your lovely posters I forgot to come by here and say just how lovely I think they are. They are gorgeous and everyone who has seen them thinks so too. I had a cute moment yesterday in a cafe where I was but accosted by a sweet and very enthusiastic young man who caught a glimpse of the poster and within a split second had it rollled up (with a flyer too) elastic band expertly flicked around it “I think I’d better have one of these!” — this had me wondering just how long the posters I’ve put up will last before they are purloined as mementos.
I’ve had people squealing with delight - “Ooh I love cute boys kissing!” (Who doesn’t?) and lots of others cooing over the poster and the upcoming screening. I think it’s going to be great fun
Mwah
