Short B&W silent student film, directed by Frank Edward Nora (host of The Overnightscape podcast) while at NYU Film School in 1987. Shot on a rooftop near the corner of Houston St. and Thompson St. in lower Manhattan, with a view of the World Trade Center. Starring Zachary Winston Snygg.

This was the first movie I made at NYU Film School. I filmed it on the roof of the building my apartment was in, probably around September-October 1987. Shot on 16mm.

Zachary Winston Snygg was in my film group, along with a guy named Ramon and the girl in the movie, Grace. Zack went on to become a director of various types of film, including softcore parody type movies (as discussed in The Overnightscape #409 (3/9/06)).

I made a page on the blog here listing all the different places online for The Overnightscape (such as MySpace, Flickr, etc.) A link to the page should also be on the sidebar.

The Overnightscape is my daily podcast, which began almost three-and-a-half years ago, on March 27, 2003. In all that time I have never had a blog – the website has been very basic and utilitarian. But more and more, as I add content online in different places, it’s getting very disorganized and very hard to figure out what’s been released where. So today I am finally starting a blog!

Now, whenever stuff is added – episodes of The Overnightscape, audio in Station Unlimited, new pics on Flickr, videos on YouTube, etc. – I will make an entry in this blog.

Today’s episode of The Overnightscape is #527 – I’ll make my first “show” post for tomorrow’s show, #528.

And of course, I can use the blog for news, announcements, comments, etc.
