Ninth Annual Mountainfilm Festival on Tour at WaterColor, November 6 & 7

[Smiling JOe]

Last night, I saw all of the audio/video crew working hard to set up for Mountain Film. It's looking very good. I saw one big improvement, actually two. This year, they have opened up seating to the entire lawn. Previous years, they have done a rear-screen projection, which also required equipment in the center of lawn in front of the screen, behind which, no one sat. This year, they have improved, using a front projector, which is a big mama jama, and the films appear much brighter on the screen. They are also projecting it from a small tower in the back of the lawn, which opens up all that extra seating, and it's high enough above everyone's head that they won't be making shadow puppets on the screen.

I have much to do today, but I am excited about getting to Mountain Film (on tour) tonight and tomorrow.

Gathering chairs, blankets, scarves, warm coats, socks (I usually have the hardest time finding these)-

I finally understand the purpose of a Snuggie- it would be perfect for Mt. Film. (Just a merch idea for next year- a real Snuggie with a large Mt. Film logo...;-))

I love it here!

jdarg, you should consider storing that scarf, warm coat, and that pair of socks in your sleeping bag, so that you will always know where they are for Mtn Film.

When I was there last night, my toes were cold enough to consider wearing socks tonight. Also, there was a light dew on the ground, so be prepared. When you are out there for three hours tonight and tomorrow night, it will be chilly, unless you flew in from Colorado, but even Justin was wearing a fleece last night.

You need to write the "Mt. Film Survival Guide".;-)

Let me search for my mind first.

thanks for reminding us all, smiling joe ...

socks are truly a wonderful thing, when they're just what's called for ... you don't know how many teeth-chattering people i've talked to at moutainfilm at watercolor over the years, in flip-flops at 9:30 pm, saying "yeah, but i live in florida"

Better find my sleeping bag!
