Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving!
Was trying to clean up my desktop and found these old promos.
I forgot I did them.
Old age, I guess.

The movie was based on the children’s book, The Tattooed Torah written by Marvell Ginsburg Illustrated by Martin Lemelman  The three screenings at the Illinois Holocaust Museum, the Solomon Schechter Day School, and Temple Beth Am reached approximately 700 viewers - a truly amazing experience in Chicago. There are more showings scheduling in L.A., Florida, London, and Prague. A Spanish version will be shown in Mexico City and Panama City. More coming up. Whew... I met such delightful and friendly people - some who were the talented folks that created this wonderful movie. Amazingly, there were a few I had only spoken to over the phone or emailed! Beth Kopin, daughter of Marvell Ginsburg, made this movie happen. Her tireless work brought people together from all over the country. She made us all feel comfortable and was an incredible host.

Marc Bennett - Author Screenplay, Director and Energizer Bunny in human form Martin Lemelman - Illustrator Melinda Goldrich - Executive Producer, President Director The Goldrich Family Foundation Beth Kopin - Executive Producer Lisa Effress - Producer, Managing Partner 11 Dollar Bill Brett Kopin - Author Screenplay (holding the actual Tattooed Torah) Jeffrey Pittle - Animator Missing artists Christian Robins - Animator Daniel Alcheh - Original Music Just finished this final painting needed for a shot in the film. Working up to the deadline of the premiere in Chicago, October 24. Whew. Music, sound effects and narration are being mixed, as well. Everyone working hard-- very dedicated.   October 24 is the premiere of this wonderful movie.
So many talented people worked on it (and are still working on it). It's amazing how much work goes into a 20 minute film. There's some tweaking needed in the animation, as well as, the addition of sound effects. The music is slated to be recorded by an orchestra in Russia later this month, etc. etc... So, if you're in Chicago-- come! I'll be showing a dozen original paintings at the opening. It's been a long but rewarding journey.  Some redo faces needed for the TTT Video. Feeling a bit rusty.
  Writing and Illustrating Something New
Writing and doing a bunch of drawings before I start putting the whole thing together. The color is a long way off. |
