You are Here, We are Everywhere
my dark apron
Spy Name:
I'm currently working as a sound effects editor / sound designer for film and in love with every minute of it. I'm also a budding cinephile, with some of my favorite directors being Andrei Tarkovsky, Carl Theodor Dreyer, Park Chan-Wook, The Coen Brothers, and Lars von Trier (the list could go on forever). I love sound, especially within the boundless realms of storytelling. From the most unintelligible crackling gibberish to the smoothest of melodious murmurs, I love it all.

North Atlantic ╳ Bernardo Nascimento
March 16, 2013
Bernardo Nascimento’s North Atlantic is a true-to-life story about an air-traffic controller’s nightshift, and the distress call that would form an everlasting friendship. A beautifully appropriate depiction of life-affirming material that ironically / tragically fits its given runtime.

Blancanieves ╳ Pablo Berger
March 14, 2013
Director / writer / producer Pablo Berger re-imagines the classic tale of Snow White, in his latest black and white silent film homage Blancanieves. Automatic comparisons to Michel Hazanavicius’ The Artist (previously featured on EK here) may arise, but past the monochrome glaze and boxish aspect ratio, Berger’s film stands firmly as its own voice of unique storytelling.

Simon Killer ╳ Antonio Campos
March 4, 2013
Antonio Campos’ feature film SIMON KILLER explores the world view of one man’s seemingly harmless impulsive behavior, and the troubling implications that stem from a foggy state of mind.I’ve never seen Campos’ earlier works (which should be remedied shortly), but just knowing that he’s a major part of the filmmaking collective behind MARTHA MARCY MAY MARLENE already puts me at ease.

Escape From Tomorrow
February 20, 2013
Randy Moore's first major feature Escape From Tomorrow finds the director in a lot of controversial hot water, as most of the film was shot gorilla-style on Disney's magical kingdom. Although it has made its way through the festival circuit, I'm hoping the general audience will be able to catch this flick before the Mickey Mouse brigade buries it forever.
