| Bright Shadow - Lone Star Film Fest |
If I wasn't so busy editing another documentary at the moment, I would have posted these photos sooner. On November 6th, Bright Shadow - a feature documentary about singer/songwriter Ana Egge - had its world premiere at the Lone Star Film Festival in Ft. Worth, Texas. I drove up the day of the screening, met up with director Jesse Lyda and the rest of crew - which included Ana, producer Jason Wehling, cinematographer Allen E. Ho, and executive producer Clark Lyda. After catching up over dinner, we headed over to the AMC Palace to screen the movie to festival goers.

| Bright Shadow Q and A |
Our Q and A after the movie was in front of a packed house, yet still felt intimate. Both Ana fans and folks unfamiliar with her music praised the movie and asked us insightful questions about the process of making it. It felt like the we connected with everyone in the room, which is what we aim to do when spending years piecing an emotional journey like Ana's.
(If you are unfamiliar with Ana's work, check out her latest album, also titled Bright Shadow, on iTunes or buy direct from her website. Past albums also available.)

After the movie, we walked across the street to the Flying Saucer where Ana played a set. Myself and the rest of the crew continued to talk to audience members who joined us at the screening. Great screening, great night!
