Through mostly monthly meetings, we&#8217;ve demonstrated that being aware of each other is good. Last spring we had a series of stellar presentations and Skype visits thanks to Jeff Morgan, Rebecca Glotfelty and Andrea Maio. I&#8217;d include Dan Kelly and Jeff Gibbs in there except their valiant attempt was something of a train wreck. The point is, we&#8217;re starting to do some interesting stuff.<\/p>\n<p>This month we&#8217;ll have an informal sharing and brainstorming session &#8211; come ready for a round robin with brief updates on your projects in progress and recent successes\/failures &#8211; epic or otherwise. Think about how we can energize \/ enhance our production community, how M3 could be better &#8211; more inspiring, magnetic and resource chocked.<\/p>\n<p>For those of you who can&#8217;t make meetings consistently, this would be a great time to be seen and heard by your peers and perhaps have pix taken for the Meet your Makers page.<\/p>\n<p>With western civilization on tenterhooks at the end of the Mayan calendar and\/or election of the anti-christ and\/or collapse of the dollar and\/or melting of the polar ice caps, why bother building our collective Michigan Movie Maker community? You might as well ask &#8211; why did the band play on as the Titanic sank? <strong>Because they were artists!<\/strong>\u00a0 If we&#8217;ve only got a few months left to achieve greatness, by jiminy &#8211; let&#8217;s choose greatness.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Two days into a wet and windy Fall, resplendent with towering Maxfield Parrish cloudscapes shot through with bold ochres and scarlets of the rising sun.
