Films - about the film festival


I met Gregg Bray maybe about a year ago, when he asked me to participate in a panel discussion on the media at my alma mater, SUNY New Paltz, which I can either thank profusely or blame heavily for my "career" in journalism...JUST KIDDING!! HA!

Anywho, I saw Gregg, an instructor in the video production program at SUNY New Paltz, in the lounge at the Bearsville last night, sitting with Bill Kollar. Both are WFF staff members and are producing 2-3 minute videos on the film fest, that will be posted starting this afternoon on youtube.com and www.woodstockfilmfestival.com.

The goal is to let the viewer experience the film fest, Gregg said.

"It's like, if you weren't with us, here's what you missed."

Bill also runs his own production company, London By Night, and today will be recording an interview that legendary New York City DJ Pete Fornatele will conduct with the singer Donovan, who is all over this film festival. Click here to see where Donovan will be at the film fest.

That's Gregg on the left. Bill said Fornatele's interview with Donovan will be broadcast sometime in the future on XM Satellite Radio, and maybe Bronx-based WFUV.
