feels like the first time

NH Film Expo was good. American Fair played Saturday morning. Watching the film with an audience in a theater was a thrill.



The film recieved great praise from the audience during the Q & A. One of the nicest comments came from Dan Hannon, that the film had "heart".

I met the director of the Philadelphia Film Festival and a Film Threat exec. I also had many nice though brief encounters with local film execs, producers and directors. It seems that there is some local money interested in making films, and a growing number of film-makers with New England roots or connections.

The opportunity to show my film, listen to feedback, and meet new friends with a passion for film gives me encouragement. American Fair is special.

I'm currently arranging local and regional screenings for American Fair, and awaiting decisions from upcoming film fests. Stay tuned!

And a recent Boston Globe story about the NHFX mentions American Fair.

Pretty early in the morning! Hope some people come to see the film.

seeking finishing funds














Three quick ideas:

1). Editing is complete, music is finished. Film festival submission process has begun. American Fair is seeking finishing funds for final audio mix and color-correction.

2). You can support the project and purchase a premiere edition American Fair DVD from my lakefilm.com website.

3). I would also like to hold a film-sceening/fund-raiser in the Boston area before the end of October. But I have not found the right place yet. If you have any ideas, drop me a line: rick at lakefilm dot com.

Thanks!
