STRUMMING ON EMPTY

Our friend and former Managing Editor of FilmMaker Magazine Liz Ogilvie sent us a press release that further demonstrates the growing power of documentaries. Docurama, which hitherto had constrained itself to dvd and home entertainment, has now entered the world of theatrical distribution with Alexandra Lipsitz’s Air Guitar Nation, an hilarious piece that chronicles emergence of the US Air Guitar Championships and a new power strumming victor. If you would like play along, check out clips of expert air guitar technique. You’ll see that there is a lot more to air guitar than just helicoptoring in front of your bedroom mirror in your underwear.

I caught AGN at Silverdocs,and it’s one of the funniest films I’ve seen in a long time. But what I appreciated most about the film is that it avoided taking cheap shots at the competitors, which another filmmaker might have done.

I interviewed Alexandra at the Tribeca Film Festival- check out our video podcast which includes footage from the film. Alexandra talked a lot about her post workflow, which involved working with a lot of different formats in Final Cut. Here’s a link:
