I may, but not yet. Festivals first.<br />
<br />
I was also toying with the idea of a "Short Films Of Keith Snyder" DVD, now that I've got 45 minutes worth of program material.

Hey, cool. Let me know the dates of your trip as soon as they are firm. I'm living in Chicago these days, but I get back to Toronto fairly often, and if I know when you're going, I'll make sure we're there at the same time.<br />
<br />
Whiskey and babies. Sounds like a winning combination!<br />
<br />
Oh, and congrats on the screening! I look forward to seeing ILY. Are you planning to put it up for sale on iTunes?

Hey, Sean. <br />
<br />
Good point. But let's not forget we're probably talking short films, which are mostly made by people who don't necessarily know those ins and outs yet, and who are still building to the point where they have people who do know.<br />
<br />
That aside--I just found out I LOVE YOU, I'M SORRY, AND I'LL NEVER DO IT AGAIN will be screening in Toronto in June. If I make it up there for it, you know I've got whiskey drinking and baby viewing in mind.

I love the idea. A great example is Steve Hamilton's short story, THE SHOVEL. You can buy it on iTunes for $1.99, and it's an excellent short film. In fact, it became a springboard to financing a feature, so you never know where such a thing might lead. But it would be fun just to see short crime fiction made into short films, regardless.<br />
<br />
I gotta say, however, that I worry about filmmakers who are stumped because they don't know how to go about getting the rights to a short story. If they're…

I gotta say, however, that I worry about filmmakers who are stumped because they don't know how to go about getting the rights to a short story. If they're stumped at that juncture, how the hell are they gonna deal with the many more difficult challenges that come along in the filmmaking process?<br />
<br />
That said, if you can help them, good on ya. Working on it.

Which means I'm sitting around having vague, random thoughts, some of which bear tangentially on whatever it is we were just talking about.

Genius. For those of us who can't get out much, couldn't you do it virtually -- Daniel Hatadi, maybe on an adjunct site sometime at a later date? Something on the lines of the virtual Zoetrope community, perhaps?I'm always surprised to see the stars jump into indies as creative vehicles and opportunities to stretch and work out of the typecasting box. I bet tons of people would sign on right away: writers, directors, writer/directors, actors, even famous ones. You go, Keith! And please keep…

Good thing you don't have to write it, then.<br />
<br />
Libby, I'm not the guy to do it (I'd imagine Tribe has a problem with "implement," too), but that may not be a bad idea.
