“Digital Pamphleteer”: a film about blogging and politics

Filed Under Blogging, Media, Politics | Comments Off

Must-watch Quicktime or YouTube version (embedded below) of a film that won the Goldstone Award (for emerging filmmakers) from the Vermont Film Commission.

The Carpetbagger Report tells us about the film (and yes, I’ve watched it):

Several months ago, my good friend Bill Simmon, a terrific filmmaker (and blogger), came to me with an idea: he wanted to do a short film about blogging, starring … me. Now, I’ve never been entirely comfortable in front of a camera — I’m more of a behind-the-keyboard kind of guy — but Bill is practically family to me, so I couldn’t turn him down. Besides, I thought, a short film about me would be a) good publicity for The Carpetbagger Report; and b) exciting for my Mom.

So, last summer, Bill and some of filmmaking colleagues came over and spent the day interviewing me and watching me work. It led to a short that Bill titled, “Digital Pamphleteer.” I’m hardly objective about the finished product, but it did win an award at the Vermont International Film Festival last fall and will also play at this year’s Green Mountain Film Festival.

And, Russell Hughlock, if you still read this blog – I thought of you and Buckeye Senate Blog the minute I saw the title of the film.
