Introduce Yourself : Eager by Pierre Filmon

Eager

Hello to you all fine and creative people, First of all, thank you dearly Richard RB Botto for your dedication and your invitation. I am very new to the community, eager to read and connect more about making films today. First of all cinephile, I am a French director making, after 4 short films who travelled to 50 film festivals, a documentary called CLOSE ENCOUNTERS WITH VILMOS ZSIGMOND (1978 OSCAR for Best Cinematography for "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" by Steven Spielberg), lucky to have interviewed so many interesting and generous persons like John Travolta, Vittorio Storaro, Darius Khondji, Haskell Wexler, Richard Donner, John Boorman among others (feel free to like the Facebook page of the film) - a film to be released in France at the end of this year... as well as preparing a feature film called A DREAM LAST NIGHT (feel free to visit the eponymous film site) from a script I co-wrote with KC and Budd Schulberg (1950 OSCAR for ON THE WATERFRONT by Elia Kazan) to be shot in Florida... as soon as possible ! Best to you all, Pierre Filmon

Hi Pierre, welcome to Stage 32! I checked out http://www.adreamlastnight.com/ . Looks like an intriguing project.

Alonzo Crawford

Hello everyone. I am a local independent filmmaker in Washington, DC looking to collaborate with talented people on projects. As a retired member of the Howard University film faculty, now looking to pursue my own film career, I taught cinematographer to some of the well known cinematographers in the industry today: such as, Ernest Dickerson (now a director), who shot most all of Spike Lee's movies and Bradford Young (Best Cinematographer at Sundance for "Restless City" and "Mother of George") and cinematographer on Selma.

Hey Pierre. Always great to see you, my friend, and I thank you for the post. Let me get this straight...You wrote a script with Budd Schulberg??? Care to possibly write a guest blog about that experience? Sound fascinating.

Alonzo, great to have you here. I might suggest starting your own Introduce Yourself thread and sharing who you are with the community!
