This guy.

A friend invited me to spend some time at Tribeca Film Festival yesterday. My first time there. A very nice lunch with filmmakers, then a panel about storytelling, and then a rooftop party with an open bar with industry types. Big fun to attend as a civilian!

Oops, I’m a day late on my #LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched! All shorts this time. What has happened to my attention span??? Deets in the ALT:

You guys, the modest little Kickstarter for my new short film is already at 37%. Thanks to everyone who has pledged so far! There’s still time to get a logo of your name as a reward: kck.st/3ZNYuFM

I’m at Tribeca Film Festival today, just chillin’. Come find me!

this is like drake and kendrick lamar but they're both vanilla ice

Yeah, it’s fun to watch Musk and Trump fight, but I’m more frightened by the fact that self described Christian nationalist Russell Vought, one of the chief architects of the Heritage Foundation’s Project 2025, is running DOGE now.

Men are too emotional to hold positions of power

I’ve got a modest Kickstarter going for a new short film, called Film That Never Begins. It’s already 37% funded. Can you help me get there so I can submit it to film festivals? Possible reward for you? A logo of your name. www.kickstarter.com/projects/147...

Just backed this from @scottbateman.bsky.social : www.kickstarter.com/projects/147...

HERE WE GO! I’ve been secretly making a short film called FILM THAT NEVER BEGINS, a comedy where the opening credits ARE the film. I’ve put up a modest Kickstarter to raise film festival submission fees. One reward: your own logo in the film and your own use! www.kickstarter.com/projects/147...

When you go through as much found footage as I do, sometimes you find something amazing, like this Comedy Central bumper from the mid-90s with a baby version of Mark Maron:

I just backed this and am excited to see what kind of logo I get!

Starting a depressed tribute band called Not OK Go.

It’s FREE to watch my bonkers animated film 5000 SPACE ALIENS on Tubi! Please watch it this weekend and tell your cool-ass friends to watch too. Indie films need your love! #filmsky Guy Maddin: "Remarkably gorgeous! I feel like I could drink down its images forever." tubitv.com/movies/10002...

Hey, #filmsky and #directorsky: Anyone have experience making a DCP, or a DCP service they can highly recommend for an indie feature?

This is so good that I've got it on DVD twice. Give it a watch!

Had a little Criterion Channel marathon last night. #LastFourWatched

I’ve updated my #Letterboxd list BLU RAY PLEASE, 45 movies not available on blu ray here in Region A that I would love to own. What are some of yours? letterboxd.com/scottbateman...
