ROOFTOP SHORTS: DAILY MONSTERS
Every day deserves its own demon, and Stefan G. Bucher has spawned a world full of them, which other net-trawlers have been happily embellishing and giving greater life to. Every day for 100 days, Bucher made a little ink splot on a piece of paper, then sketched a funny monster out of it, filming the […]
ROOFTOP SHORTS: KATHY HUANG’S NIGHT VISIONS
A short, melancholy portrait of Blake Roberts, an Iraq vet just back from the war. Honest and direct, he shared with Kathy tales of daily life in the barracks as well as intimate, tragic moments. Though Blake does not question the motives of the U.S. government in Iraq or the missions he completed, he nevertheless […]
SUNDANCE SHORTS: CARSON MELL’S BOBBY BIRD THE DEVIL IN DENIM
If I can find a picture without the balls blacked out, I’ll post that one. Until that point, you will have to go here to watch the uncensored video. For those wondering, Bobby Bird is NOT a real rocker. But Carson says that he is hoping to create a live-action Devil in Denim feature film, […]
SUNDANCE SHORTS: JOERG WAGNER’S MOTODROM

Luckily it […]
ROOFTOP SHORTS: MATTHEW POND’S THE NAKED COWBOY
Veteran Rooftop volunteer (from our Bushwick days) and all-around good guy Matthew Pond made this tremendously entertaining portrait of Times Square’s famously talentless Naked Cowboy. You can watch it HERE.
SUNDANCE SHORTS: ANDY BLUBAUGH’S SCAREDYCAT
We screened Andy Blubaugh‘s charming short Hello, Thanks last summer and we are really excited to see that he has continued working in a similar vein but seems to really be making strides as a video artist, or video diarist, or personal documentarian or whatever he decides to call himself. Scaredycat is really great and […]
SUNDANCE SHORTS: IAN OLDS’ BOMB
Ian Olds has worked on several really great films over the years, including the Academy Award short-listed documentary feature, Occupation: Dreamland and the extraordinary (according to Mark) suburban tank documentary Cul de Sac, which is not yet available on DVD, unfortunately. Bomb is quite different from either of his doc films, but still quite an […]
JONATHAN REYNOLD’S BURIAL AT SEA
I don’t really know anything about this Jonathan Reynolds, but this film is pretty magical. Find out (a very little bit) more about him here. Spaghetti Terrestris is also pretty cool…
