Best of Celluloid Social Club screening
Our last screening in Vancouver was a blast!
Thanks again to Paul Armstrong and the Celluloid Social Club for taking A Year Minus a Day under its wing. More than just grateful thoughts, Dean Buscher and his camera granted us of their photo-journalistic presence. You can admire the shots of the entire night or jump straight to our part!
We have been interviewed by a pretty interesting character, Nick Pannu, who grabbed few of the several teams involved that night. Check out the audio piece on his MySpace (Look for A Year Minus a Day).
Find out more about the Celluloid Social Club on their website www.celluloidsocialclub.com. Also, we strongly recommend you to review Dean Buscher's work on his website wwww.dbphotoandfilm.com.

Right in time for submission!
A huge thank-you and congratulation for everybody's effort during the last push!
Jean-Philippe, Eric and Christine added so much with a clean sound master, beautiful color grading and delicate titling.
We still have to fix one sound issue in one scene, but in a week from now this should be history!
The most important thing now is to submit to festivals, as we did to the Vancouver International Film Festival on June 15th!
