I met the talented Sherren Lee on her web series Someone Not There; she eventually (and thankfully) hired me as her Music Supervisor for that dynamic gig.

If I were Gwen Stefani I’d say this weekend is b a n a n a s but I ain’t no Hollaback Girl. Tomorrow at 5pm I join a T.O. WebFest panel “The Web Series Soundtrack” with other music makers.

Gratefully for my Someone Not There contributions organizing the soundtrack I’ve been invited to join a panel at Toronto’s WebFest! “…sweeter than Ben and Jerry” indeed.

Sunday, May 11, 2014
Brigantine Room, 5:00PM – 50min
I join the TO WebFest panel The Web Series Soundtrack featuring: Adrian Ellis, Tony Tobias & Aaron Tsang. Moderator: Carly Beath.

A great soundtrack to your series can bring that extra magic when looking to make your mark. Panelists will include music supervisors, composers, and musicians covering topics like original composition, music rights acquisition, and working with indie artists.

All aboard…the love train for Someone Not There continues to chug, following its triumphant run at LA WebFest. Now with a stop at Toronto’s WebFest!

Director Sherren Lee says it best: “We are so utterly proud to have been selected as part of the INAUGURAL T.O. Webfest, in our very own home town. Super excited for the big event in May!! Thanks T.O. WebFest, and CONGRATS to the entire team!!!”

This is so much better than the crappy “it’s an honour to be nominated” false humble deflection. Congratulations to the entire cast and crew, high fives and fist bumps to the all the winners.

Confession: I’ve never understood binge watching.

This is cooler than Fonzie…Someone Not There is heading to LA! Sunglasses and TMZ here we come!

To quote writer and director Sherren Lee:
“SUPER EXCITING NEWS!! We have been officially selected as part of the LA Web Fest 2014!!! Big congratulations to the entire cast and crew, and to everyone who has offered us your endless love and support. We’re super excited to hit the west coast in March!!!”
