The RESFEST has come and gone, but the memories will last forever. Okay, enough with the sentimental crap, – it’s always an enjoyable evening when a director opens up their treasure trove of ideas for people like me – people who like to watch.
Stephane Sednaoui was the first to chat it up, he began with his start in photography and ended it all with his last short film.
“When I met the Red Hot Chilli Peppers I wore a dress that I picked up from India. I think this is what got me the gig.” Playing above is “Give it Away”
Here’s a pic of Michel Gondry. Waiting impatiently to hear what inspires inspiring artists such as himself is me off the stage and three rows back.
Gondry likes to work with artists on long-term relationships. Bjork’s “Army of Me” plays above.
The evening ended with both video directors on stage. It was clear that they inspire and influence one another. When asked what do you call a good producer? Gondry responded, “the best producers are ones that admit they are not creative.”
A special thanks goes out to Production Coordinator Sarah Koo for sharing these pics.
RESFEST Montreal will be back next year from November 24th to the 26th.
