]]> Comment on The Jock Rock: Official Workout Video by some guy in Milwaukee http://www.papaflyfilms.com/2006/10/02/the-jock-rock-official-workout-video/#comment-3746 some guy in Milwaukee Sat, 13 Sep 2008 04:22:41 +0000 http://www.papaflyfilms.com/wp/2006/10/02/the-jock-rock-official-workout-video/#comment-3746 I am hooked on this video ... this one and the other one with just Scott Cassidy burning up the squash court. I can't remember how or why I originally ran across it, maybe a year or more ago, but I have watched it repeatedly, and then I forget about it, and then I look it up again like nine months later and go crazy with it all over again. (Well, 'crazy' in the sense that I just really enjoy it, that's all ... nothing kinky going on, here!) So I wanna know why this thing isn't being showcased in some sort of hall of fame somewhere. It is truly a gem in how it has captured that raw dude energy and perfectly fits the megamix. (Much better than the lame 'official' Jock Jams video that I remember also seeing at one point but that now seems to have disappeared from YouTube and Google, etc.) And what is Scott Cassidy up to, these days? Is he dancing? That guy has talent. I am hooked on this video … this one and the other one with just Scott Cassidy burning up the squash court.

You are so good at making people feel special and focusing on what is important. Mica, this is another beauty and it warms my heart to see the love and care that you put into your films.

I've never even met Sasha, but it brought tears to my eyes. Especially the part where his mom left her message. He seems like a special and well-loved person. That was beautiful.

I stumbled upon your take. Even though it was inacurate and questioned the sexuality of the main character, I really enjoyed it. This made me look farther into your work. Very enjoyable. Keep up the good work. I have a question for you. What is the best way for me to pull creativity like you have shown out of my students? Just looking for ideas. again, great work. greg I teach 8th grade english and was looking for something to supliment my “Outsiders” unit. I stumbled upon your take.

]]> Comment on Bars & Tone: Film 233 Short Film Production by Tory Nash, President of Australia http://www.papaflyfilms.com/2008/04/13/bars-tone-film-233-short-film-production/#comment-584 Tory Nash, President of Australia Tue, 15 Apr 2008 05:35:46 +0000 http://www.papaflyfilms.com/?p=63#comment-584 This is a departure, in my opinion, from the usual Mica Prazak films. It was still very experimental, but it was a spin on something that we all experience almost daily but don't always examine in our everyday cognitive process. What I mean is: it's a cool idea. Emilia was cool. I don't know if this was intentional or how it was supposed to be interpreted, but I thought it was cool how she was supposed to be his girlfriend, but in his dream she "morphed" into something super mundane and almost annoying (as the TV salesperson). And she is a lovely little singer... Peter is always fun, and he got to kiss two pretty ladies. Kayla was a great choice for dream dancer woman (HAIDA WHO!?!?!). I really liked the flashing montage with her in it. She is good because she could easily overdo that situation and make it cheezy, but she didn't and it kept a certain element of authenticity. Mica - you deserve an A+ in that class (from the completely uneducated opinion of one 20 year old amateur video connoisseur) This is a departure, in my opinion, from the usual Mica Prazak films.
