You are a busy girl. I'm definitely jealous you get to move around so much!! End of Feb will be great. In fact any time is good to catch up. I'm not far from the beach so maybe I can cook for you. Good luck in Tassy and I look forward to catching up in a few weeks. Crisso. xo
Hi Rach...saw you're film on SBS last night...nice one (got to be at least the 5th time I've seen it now)...had 3 friends ring me to tell me it was going to be on...well done. Missed you at Xmas too, but hope you had a good day. Karlene mentioned the good news which is rather exciting. Would luv to catch up with you all soon or when possible. Crisso xo
I just finished reading your Guerilla Filmmaking book. If my lil' indie psychological horror film Family Demons does well out there in the big, bad world of feature marketing and distribution, it will partly be due to all the advice I got out of your book. Thanks, Rachel for taking the time to write it and sharing so many invaluable insights into how to go about getting your film not only made, but seen. Ursula x
Happy Jet Rock B-day, far away friend ! I hope your project progresses well. I am in the UK right now for a festival, and waiting an answer from Byron Bay... Luv & Rock for you, baby !
Hey thanks heaps for the add! I saw Bondi Tsunami when I came out and loved it! After watchin it I did some research into it and you and it was seriously a great inspiring force to me in what is capable in Australia on a micro budget! I'll have to check out your guide thingy because guerilla film making is definately where I see myself in the next few years. I finish my uni course this year then next year intend to finally begin my first guerrilla style feature film!
