FROM THE CARNIVORE FRONT

Greetings Dearhearts!

Thank you Edward Westerhuis, my trustee assistant director, for posting those fab photos of snow covered Vancouver we had to blow dry to look like summer during the YOTC film shoot in Maple Ridge last winter! And to Trey Agnew, "Punk King" for his entry. I understand he had the audience in stitches during the 2nd YOTC public screening at TIFF. God bless the King.

Okeedoke. First of all, spread the news! YOTC is making it's way to film festivals across Canada:

HALIFAX: 29TH ATLANTIC FILM FESTIVAL: 17-26 SEPTEMBER 2009

Year of the Carnivore Friday, September 25th @ 9:20PM Park Lane 8 (352 seats) Canadian Perspectives

Cinéfest Sudbury:

YEAR OF THE CARNIVORE – Friday, September 25

CALGARY INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL SEPTEMBER 25 - OCTOBER 4, 2009

Wednesday September 30

7:00 PM, The Globe

In Competition, Canadian.

Next up, I want to share some swell animated short films to my stories that originally aired on my radio show DNTO! (www.cbc.ca/dnto). They're directed by Jim Goodall, Jon Izen and Anne Marie Fleming. Fabuluz.







And now that we all survived getting TIFFED, here's a smattering of Year of the Carnivore press post Toronto International Film Festival. It's just enough to start generating buzz before we roll YOTC out in 2010 in theatres.
