The Toronto Reel Asian concluded on November 16 with their awards ceremony. A-movie-a-day won an honorable mention. Kass Banning, Reel Asian juror said: “Forward-looking on toy cameras, posted one-a-day videos on small format show poetic beauty and smarts.”
Although I am pleased at the acknowledgement I confess it’s a bit bittersweet. A week after this announcement my 1TB hard drive crashed beyond repair. Foolishly I didn’t have a backup and have lost all the original files for the year-long project. Fortunately I still have the mpeg4 files and so they will forever only be miniature movies available on hand-held devices.
