is carol welsh the moderator for tonight's show and with me is campbell who is one of our regular panelists and we have a very special shame for you tonight because we have three guests who are going to be is katherine clark who's with pop up in fall of g e another sponsor and then finally i have agent in cologne who's a local filmmaker and a comic film is being shown in the screen and different locations about once a month and it's more and are active community environment we've screened then a hair salon art gallery we've screened in a photography studio we've screened in a land preserve so it's a unique location and just to change things up a little and get more community involved don't get it though bank oh yeah that was society we present a number of different from throughout the year including the trenton film festival and so we actually met catherine and her partner and he asked the last one film tussle and adrian's film  actually showed the trend film festival as well so there were a lot of connections and i was really interested in how the band ology and in the format of it and just how much they were doing to promote local film and local filmmakers and so we the event starts at seven o'clock and we're screening six short films that evening all of the filmmakers will be in attendance and so there'll be a q and a after the screening and then a reception so the audience can continue the conversation you know in social setting as well so have a coffee tea and dessert reception at the end of the evening and the food is always org and there's a link right there to buy tickets or you can come to the mill whole box office will be open roughly an hour before the screenings from six o'clock on the box office  the tickets are ten dollars so it's a really great deal that includes all six films the q and a and the reception and you know it's so much fun when the filmmakers are there when they're when they're very their families are th film so i'm like ok the drugs we call the joke's on me because i mean obviously i'm bombing is not going well for me and going to the footage and watching that you know i learn things about myself you know what i mean things that i put in the background and i just have consciously where these i'll take the bullet for the team you know let's do it you know and a lot of people have and that's why we always win audience with award or whatever but i people have come up to me like oh my god thank you i suffer from and how did he decide that he wanted to make he was the subject of the film well he didn't really make me a subs or so the film what happened was we were both students at mercer county there was actually a graduation project and we were both lurking around the we join another team or whatever i don't like all the other ideas no disrespect as it was my thing so i was like i told my professor i want to do a film about comics period i don't want to be and i wanted to do the background other people and because i wanted to capture like you said it's funny people on stage and you're like oh he's funny but you don't know what that person is going through you know we make fun of so a lot of self deprecating humor it comes from pain but i wanted to capture that you know and before it gets on the stage where they primary director on what i was very hands on i was never just a subject that a lot of the credit was to camera didn't know how to work the one but i was when i was on stage i was working with other cameras and things like that but that we already knew each other's work and we have respect for each other's work and stuff the only two from as a marriage and we're too old to gauge children house so we like we're like i don't know how to say would feel like we're like the same person i was that we finish each other's sentences when we were very healthy is my writing partner he's my i have to run everything i run everything by him that he approves of it whether i don't like it or not i got the you know what i mean he has good taste in things they have an eye for detail and things like that thought i do have a pro on i return you know what i had to wear tonight leave i don't know why i've always been fascinated with business as i was a child i always was and my father used to play the guitar and i used to staying with him have bars that like six years over the bars and i am and i was then i was fascinated with my was a friend of mine and she told me when you see the film stop the drinking use your nerves and we were like oh my god what am i going to do i mean the first to show is not easy first i'll get permission to film inside of a comedy club they don't  he he's really fascinating person the film he's a musician and a singer so he composed the music and produced the film and that he's also he's currently a law school and i also believe he has a master relations in this country and racial disparity and so it's just amazing that he can kind of take these you know this deep academic stuff that he said thinking about but create something if he you know this great new sick amazing yeah he's great he's a well loved tretton filmmaker also you know great sort of political commentary and a great message in that music video called one love you know and the main character has a big secret that she's trying to keep from everyone but everyone knows about it anyway which is all i can say about it for them and then amy is kind of a millennial story i would say about how you're expected to be someone who's very independent and very autonomous especially in today's world and it's not so bad to have a relationship after all  just around the corner from us across from the d m v or along front street said during the performance the parking is available on front street right in front of playhouse so if you want to be involved in a really funny thing with local artists local filmmakers it's going to be a lot of fun come out september
