I think this location is special visually and that is why i picked it but you can find interesting characters wherever you go, that's the beauty of it.David S Kesslerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13830960243625198323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2523581728984846556.post-82567994166226546012007-08-09T11:48:00.000-07:002007-08-09T11:48:00.000-07:00..and I also have to add that you can go to any ne.....and I also have to add that you can go to any neighborhood- Fishtown, South Philly, Port Richmond, Wissinoming, Tacony and talk to the regular people who live there and will find equally compelling "entertainment".

Fantastic idea, is reminiscent of Mary Ellen Mark- but much less dated.

I like it, but since the camera I use is fairly non-professional, i'm not sure how it will translate projected on a screen yet. I use a small sony trv22. i found that it helps that people are not intimidated by it and the picture still looks great online. I'll be having some screening soon around Philly so I'll start t o get an idea of what it looks like in other venues.<BR/>BTW, i checked out your blog, http://swapatorium.blogspot.com and I LOVE IT, great stuff.David S Kesslerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13830960243625198323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2523581728984846556.post-37136148244537041962007-08-08T07:46:00.000-07:002007-08-08T07:46:00.000-07:00Hey Nick! great to see you stopped by. for those...Hey Nick! great to see you stopped by. <BR/>for those that don't know, Nick was the subject of episode 7, the hobby. and i'm a big fan of his. If you are in Philadelphia on the weekends, go visit Nick at Bada Bargains on Front Street. It's an awesome flea market near the Girard stop. I stopped by a couple of weeks ago and there were some great finds. Plus Nick is always a pleasure to talk to.David S Kesslerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13830960243625198323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2523581728984846556.post-9560299149739033552007-08-08T05:41:00.000-07:002007-08-08T05:41:00.000-07:00wow dave feels like watching the kensington/fishto...wow dave feels like watching the kensington/fishtown version of the waltons.since i was in a chapter and theses are my roots.i feel that they are part of my distant family.keep up the awesome work.nicky buttonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08241395901541893508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2523581728984846556.post-48232502716887949272007-08-07T22:39:00.000-07:002007-08-07T22:39:00.000-07:00Wow!

I just stumbled across this series and I'm blown away- it's amazing how much narrative and sense of place your able to get across in each film in just a couple of minutes. Any plans on turning this into a long form piece? It reminds me a bit of a more atmospheric Streetwise (the Mary Ellen Mark film about kids living on the streets of Seattle). Keep up the good work!squareamericahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02443382882041581070noreply@blogger.com
