FOUR-EYED MONSTERS CONQUER THE EARTH (AND THE APPLE STORE)
Our favorite podcasters, Arin Crumley and Susan Buice of the film Four-Eyed Monsters, are appearing next week at the Apple Store in Soho, New York. The event is part of the Indiewire series there and will be moderated by Eugene Hernandez. Expect to hear about the duo’s evolving plan to self-release their film, a plan which takes the grassroots, DIY approach they’ve developed to market their film to even new levels. Crumley and Buice are splitting their excellent podcast series into two strands. The first continues the soap opera that was the completion of their film and its premiere at […]

VLOGGER’S BLOCK
It is hard to beat Ray Pride to the punch when passing along a relevant indie-film link. He’s the first to note that the Four-Eyed Monsters duo of Arin Crumley and Susan Buice have just posted Episode 3.5 of their popular video blog. Watch it and you’ll see why they’re not calling it Episode Four, as this week’s podcast deals with the burn-out at having to churn out these video blogs. More positively, they post on their My Space page links to some of their own favorite video blogs, including RocketBoom, Diggnation, and filmmaker Kevin Bewersdorf’s podcast for his film […]

FOUR-EYED TOP 100
Arin Crumley and Susan Buice, makers of the film Four-Eyed Monsters, sent out an email blast announcing their new videoblog, which in just three days has been seen by over 5,000 viewers and made it onto the iTunes Music Store. And while the videoblog is ostensibly a promotional tool designed to raise awareness of the couple’s film and help it find a distribution deal, their poetic downloadable musings on art, life and filmmaking limn the contours of a new and appealing intimate aesthetic medium. Writes Crumley and Buice, “Now all we need to do is get the film distributed. But […]

FOUR EYED BLOGGING
Ray Pride posted this link to the new videoblog by the makers of the indie film Four-Eyed Monsters (which, given how hard I’ve been trying to get a screener DVD from the filmmakers, must be the hardest-to-see film of all this year’s hard-to-see pics without distribution). While I wait… and wait for a screener, I’ll content myself with the videoblog, the first clip of which is a totally charming ode to being a broke filmmaker without a deal.
