Since I write for my boss on Sundance’s fashion blog, I try to keep up with the other bloggers. Typically, its all fine and swell but fashion just doesn’t get my heart all a flutterin’. This post by Christina Turner, however, got me going! James Blagden took an old radio interview with Dock Ellis and illustrated his crazy tale about pitching a no hitter for the San Diego Padres while on LSD. Collaboration at its finest! According to Turner, Blagden is currently at Sundance with this video. A personal project turning into a trip to Sundance? I’ll take two.

jackie and i are working, slowly but steadily, on our most ambitious project to date:

a feature-length historical documentary/where are they now?/social investigation about the international phenomenon that was/is FMILLEST.
what’s an FMillest, you say? it was/is our crew from our more formidable years, a group of people brought together by rollerblading. but it turned into much more than a skate crew.

so when jackie was down here a few weeks ago, we decided to:
A) see where everyone was, and what they’re doing
B) see if we can scare up as many old photos/videos/letters/etc. from that time as possible, and
C) put it all together as a documentary

we are now in the interviewing and old-media-gathering phase of the project, which we expect will last a long time. my conservative estimate for completion is one year. each interview, thus far, has been at least an hour. we’re looking at the possibility of acquiring THOUSANDS of stills, and HOURS UPON HOURS of old skate/party video.
