Huge day! The Tribeca team toasts the amazing film talent we’re involved with who received Oscar nominations in 2013 including the big boss Robert De Niro, War Witch, and Asad.

Obsessed lately with the idea of taking existing film footage, images etc that are easily accessible and crafting new short stories from them. You don’t have to spend a lot of money to create a cool video today. Fun, smart, creative and well executed.

Hey Friends*
As you probably know a film called The Comedy that I acted in is now available to watch on iTunes, Video on Demand, and other digital means - you know it if you got it. Here’s a few things to know/think about:
1. If you live in one of these cities go see this movie in The Movie Theater! Make a night of it! I’m telling you it’s a beautifully shot film and really deserves the big screen treatment. You can also request a screening in your city by going here
2. Go into watching this without any expectations about what you’re about to see! Yes, I’m in this movie with my friend and partner the great Eric Wareheim, but this is not a “Tim and Eric” movie and it’s not a comedy. I think there are plenty of funny moments but this is something else entirely. Also, I think it’s probably a good idea to stew on this movie after you’ve seen it - it’s not an easy movie and you might have some immediate reactions that I believe will change over the course of hours and days.
3. Don’t torrent it please. Relatively, this movie didn’t cost that much money to make but it still takes so, so, SO many individual purchases to make it back. If you choose to legally pay to see this movie you are making a statement that you want to see more movies like this — or at least more movies that are outside the bounds of traditional studio mush. If you like, you can wait until the price of the VOD rental comes down or when it comes to Netflix (a few months, I’d guess.) I think finally, the technology has made this decision an easy one.
Thanks for reading,
Tim

Love this anecdote about how Fincher coaches actors from the Side Swipes series by Tribeca Film. Makes you wonder who he is referring to specifically.
via futureoffilm:
“Actors and directors have diametrically opposed views to the same piece of material.”
Side Swipes is a daily video series featuring Side by Side clips that didn’t make the final cut. David Fincher (The Social Network, Fight Club) discusses the responsibility of the director to create a place for audiences to look from the inside out, never from the outside in.
You might be surprised at his attitude but look at the man’s friendship bracelet…he just wants us all to get along.

…maybe for a while…but how long?
Really love Rodriquez’s music and can’t wait to check out this film I missed from this past year’s Festival.
via tribecafilm:
One of the best docs from this year’s festival opens this weekend. Searching for Sugar Man. Don’t read about it first. Just go. You’ll thank us later.
This is a film about John Baldessari. This is a film directed by Henry Joost & Ariel Schulman. This is one of the favorite portraits I’ve seen in a while.
Super proud of this collaboration with Scott and the m ss ng p eces team
