Columbus International Film and Video Festival – Student Showcase Screening

by at

The Columbus International Film and Video Festival is the longest running film festival in the United States. For the past three years I have been chair of the student division overseeing a handful of jurors who watch anywhere from 50 to 90 student films. Each year we are tasked with not only choosing the top 3 films but also curating a screening event that highlights the best of the division as a whole.

New Photo Tumblr site called Tubby Likes Walls

by at

So, to keep myself in a mode of creativity, I like to find new ways to take photographs whenever possible. My newest adventure has combined my need for more exercise, walking my dog, and taking pictures. Tubby Likes Walls is a new Tubmlr site devoted to my Shepard/Samoyed/Lab mix 11 year old male dog named Tubby. For the past 10 years Tubby and his sister Precious always loved to walk on walls and jump over obstacles on their walks. Last year we lost Precious to Cushing’s Disease making Tubby a only dog for the first time ever. To help provide him more attention and help me lose some weight we now take very long walks with one goal in mind, find a cool wall or object to take a picture of Tubby on or around. Here are a few Photos (mostly taken with my phone) from the tumblr site. If you want to see more feel free to check out the original site Tubby Likes Walls.
