Just wanted to mention that “Machinations” has joined “Quite Contrary” in being included in the Internet Movie Database. No details yet (they’re coming), but the film’s there (thanks to its acceptance into the Science Fiction Short Film Festival).
And while we’re on the subject, more details have been added to the “Quite Contrary” page, meaning a lot more of the folks who worked on it have been recognized (and there are still more additions to come). Congrats to all!
Oh, and when you get a chance, you may want to head over and make sure your details are correct. And vote for the films! (Rate “Quite Contrary” here and “Machinations” here.)

Baltimore’s Battle of the Films... and DAVE
Right on the heels of our screening at the Science Fiction Short Film Festival next weekend, we will have one — and possibly two — screenings at the inaugural Battle of the Films in Baltimore. The first screening — on Thursday, February 8 — will feature “Screening Process,” and if we make it to round two (only five films will move on), the second screening — on Thursday, February 15 — will feature “Quite Contrary.” Now, as befits a true “battle,” these are all about viewer reaction — how we do is measured by the rigorously tested and eminently scientific method of audience applause volume.
In other words, we need people to show up. Preferably loud people.
The screenings will be hosted by The Cinema Lounge at Gardel’s, located at 29 South Front Street in Baltimore, and they’ll start at 7:30 pm. So please come if you can!
I also wanted to take a moment to give a quick shout-out to Tohubohu alumnus David Seitzinger, who just finished a program of grueling work at The DAVE School (as in Digital Animation and Visual Effects) in Orlando, Florida. His class’s final project, “Creepers,” is up for viewing on their website. Give it a look — some pretty remarkable stuff! Congratulations, David!

Bicoastal Machinations
We’ve got not one but two screenings to highlight today.
First, “Machinations” has just been accepted into the Science Fiction Short Film Festival, taking place February 3 in Seattle, Washington. We’re pretty damned proud of this little accomplishment, and are really excited about the opportunity to showcase all of our hard work to an appreciative audience. If anyone wants to fly out — or if any of our West Coast contingent wants to give it a look-see (not to mention giving us the chance to catch up) — let us know and we can get tickets and coordinate schedules!
Congratulations — and my personal thanks — to everyone involved in our achieving this honor.
And more locally (well, for our DC-based contingent anyway), the film will be screening at 4:00 p.m. on January 13 at the Arlington Cinema and Drafthouse. This screening will be a showcase of locally-produced films for the National Film Challenge, and we’re really happy to have this venue in which to host it (sure beats the hell out of my office’s common room). Tickets are only $5 apiece — and since it’s a restaurant to boot, there’ll be plenty of food and drink available as well. We really want a big turnout for this one — especially since theater revenue (well, once we recover the amount we paid to get the theater in the first place) will be divvied up by which film attendees are there to support (you’ll have a chance to express your preference upon entry). Frankly, it’d be nice to make back some of our expenses for a change... So while we’ll understand if you can’t make it all the way out to Seattle, this one there’s no excuse for missing...
Well, unless you’re a left-coaster, of course.
