Why "Rabbit Stories"? When I was 4 years old, I apparently (so say my parents) saw a rabbit in the field beside our house. By the afternoon it was 10 rabbits, by the evening it was 100. From that day forward when I told exagerated stories (something I have been known to do) my parents would question the validity of my tale by asking if this was just another "rabbit story"?!

Thursday, August 13, 2009
This is not a love story. This is a story about love.
Since its Sundance debut, (500) Days of Summerhas delighted both moviegoers and critics with its clever approach to "Boy meets girl." The film has been hailed by some critics as "this generation's Annie Hall" and is largely based on writer Scott Neustadter's relationship past.

'Tis the season...
Brief Guide About Bridesmaids was created in the Digital Design program at Vancouver Film School by students Yaniv Fridman, Nicolas Alexander and Amber Mackay, working in collaboration with writer Jennica Harper. The piece gained attention right away - even screening at the Cannes Film Festival.
The designers wanted the video to be fun, friendly and unique. Traditional visual style in bridal magazines and sites is high-end photography, but for this production the designers went the other direction. To illustrate and animate the historical moments, they opted for a colorful, stylized retro look inspired by classic toys.
Alan Dessy, president of the Dessy Group, screened the film shortly after it was first released, and forged an alliance with the school and the students to publish this delightful work for Dessy's customers and to the trade in the bridal industry. The piece is timeless and fun, and will be viewed by countless new brides, their friends and family for years to come.
