The Birthing of a Film

If the process of finishing the film were like a birth, we’d be at the moment of crowning. There are still some timing issues to deal with regarding some of the photos in the intro. There’s also color correction and sound editing and sound design. The music for the film is being scored as I…

You oughta be in pictures!

We’ve extended the submission deadline for photos and names for the Honor Roll to Sunday, February 21, 2010 – so there’s still time for the Very Important Dad(s) in your life to be in the film!

The Evolution of The Evolution of Dad

When I began this project three years ago, I set out to make a film that explores Fatherhood in every possible way. It was to have an Aaron Coplandesque score with a thundering narrator and iconic images of fatherhood in all of it’s glory. Now, as I near the finish line on this journey, I…

It’s that mammoth an undertaking. Right now we are in the editing phase, with a little more additional filming. Watching the film…

Back in the Evo Dad Saddle

Hey out there. I know. Long time since the last post. It’s been a long, cold winter, but the ‘Evolution’ continues and I’ll do my best to keep up the posts as well as push this project through to its completion. It’s amazing what an economic downturn can do with regards to more dads being…

New Music For The Film

Singer/songwriter Adriel Borshansky is working on a new song for inclusion in the film and I’m so excited about it that I wanted to share it in its very early form. Here’s the demo/lyrics for a taste of what’s to come: I Stepped Down (with instrumentals) by Adriel I stepped down (acoustic) by Adriel fatherhood…
