When movies were shot on physical film, the film was measured in feet.
This is why any recorded thing is now called ‘footage.'

Check out the new music video I edited for Jena Malone, also starring @robintunney.bsky.social and directed by @thejenniferreeder.bsky.social
David A. Ross, chair of the MFA art practice program at SVA, has resigned following the latest release of Epstein files. Emails reveal that the two discussed an exhibition about “girls and boys ages 14–25,” which Epstein suggested titling “Statutory.”
Love this Robert Gober painting!
Wrote about how the late, great Rob Reiner had the most impossible 7-movie beginning to any director's career, and yet that's not even what he was most famous for:
Yeah, we definitely don’t want that to happen…
They didn’t play Crestfest this year, but I got to listen to Scrawl from my new porch the previous two years. It was great both times!
PUBLIC HEALTH ORDER NEW MEXICO DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH SECRETARY GINA DEBLASSIE AUGUST 29, 2025 Ensuring Availability of COVID-19 Vaccine for the 2025-2026 Season
THIS ORDER supersedes any previous order, proclamation, or directives to the extent they are in conflict. This Public Order shall take effect immediately and remain in effect until such time as it automatically expires one year from the date of issuance, or until such time as the New Mexico Department of Health Cabinet Secretary rescinds it.
New Mexico has issued a public health order that removes federal restrictions to COVID-19 vaccine access so that pharmacies in New Mexico can vaccinate people of all ages and risk profiles. Every state need to do this!
@letterboxd.social just dropped a list of 20 feminist horror films. I edited one of them, Knives and Skin for @thejenniferreeder.bsky.social letterboxd.com/journal/femi...

TikTok is not currently available in Apple’s App Store. And the app only works if you had it on your phone before the ban (and didn’t delete it).
David Lynch spent the last portion of his life in isolation. He said it was due to being high-risk and unable to risk getting COVID.
He’s not the only person with disability or illness who’s been left behind.
Everywhere you go without an n95 is a place you’ve decided disabled people don’t belong.
I also want to give a shout out to Aptitude Medical Systems for generously donating some of their Metrix COVID-19 tests to this project (THANKS!). Having these highly accurate tests has helped us keep everyone safe, and they’re really easy to use too!
I’m shooting a new film called Cat and Mouse with the support of an Artists Projects grant from the Greater Columbus Arts Council. I’m working with local artists both on camera and behind the scenes to make this surreal film come to life. Here’s a sneak peak at some footage I shot with Kate Shannon.
What the buyer would get would be a certificate of authenticity saying they own the artwork (called “The Comedian”). It would most likely come with a set of instructions on how to reproduce the work (how high to install it, what kind of tape to use, what angle to tape it at, etc).
I just saw an ad for A Man On The Inside: apparently Ted Danson is trying to catch a jewel thief — who stole Carlotta Valdez’s necklace from Vertigo. I’d recognize that necklace anywhere.
I edited the ending of Night’s End and it was crazy to edit!
I worked at the Wex for over 17 years and it’s painful to read this.
Along with several of my friends and colleagues, I was quoted in this article about the film scene in Columbus and it’s leadership (or the lack thereof). www.matternews.org/culture/arts...
