How do we do what we do?

How do we do anything in life? How do we walk? How do we digest food? How the hell did we develop language and story telling?

The answer? I don’t have a clue. All I can tell is that we look around us at the objects and landscape and other creatures before us and we take a step into it all. Then another step, and then another step. And pretty soon, we are surviving as a product of our environment and doing so with out even much thought. Each next step is just the impulsive step we want to take.

This has been my experience in the film industry. Everything changes when you least expect it and suddenly there are a new set of objects, landscapes and creatures. All I can do is try to stay in touch with what is before me, and take the step my involuntary impulses tell me that I should take.

This video is my presentation at power to the pixel back in Oct of 2008 and gives you a pretty good snapshot of the steps I’ve recently been taking.

Heading to Becket to Edit

If you are in london on october 22nd and 23rd come visit Power To the Pixel to see our presentation for From Here to Awesome and our sneak peak of the rough cut of the trailer to As The Dust Settles.

We'll be presenting to a room full of potential investors, sponsors and TV channels that could potentially bring the film to the next level with their support.

A video of the presentation will eventually be posted online as well.

So for now, I'm editing away in becket MA and shooting a little additional material in NYC. If anyone has a RED camera during october or november in NYC? Anyone want to be a production assistant, boom operator or production assistant for As The Dust Settles?

Also does anyone have any footage or a well documented personal experience or an edited segment they would like to contribute to As The Dust Settles?

If so to any of the above, email ASTHEDUSTSETTLES (at) G M A I L (dot) C O M

Or, does anyone want to be part of the test audience for the film and see a rough cut of the film online and in nyc or la early and provide feedback and see this rough edit of the trailer via secret link before anyone else does?

For that go to: http://indiegogo.com/asthedust and click (fund) and you can join the team.

arin crumley as the dust settles production 08_22_08

Oh my jesus! We are leaving in the morning to drive 10 hours to the desert and start this film! It was all too much earlier today and I did this video just after I started to feel a weird cough coming up in my chest and took a break. I think I avoided getting sick by taking a break. I’ll have to remember that out there. Okay, off to finish packing, get everyone situated with their cameras and then to get some sleep. http://arincrumley.com http://asthedustsettles.com
