Asterism (2012)

A short artistic film of intertwining first experiences; Jane Stone, a strange and nervous but sadistic young woman parallels losing her virginity to the experience of shooting her first deer as an impressionable young girl with her uneasy father.

------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm sure you recall me talking about as well as sharing a few pieces of the script for my Short Film for Bob Giraldi's The Project Class -- "Asterism" 

Despite many problems, re-castings and various other troubles I managed to get it casted, found a crew, shot it, directed it, get it edited, sound mixed and color corrected successfully!

It was an amazing experience, my actors were better than I could have asked for and my cinematographer, Phil Nolan, is a great friend and talented young man whom I enjoyed working with very much. We shot on my Aunt's farm in South Jersey during the first week of April. With nature surrounding us and being able to explore a mansion and the Delaware river we all bonded immensely and enjoyed every moment together.

Asterism was shown on the big screen at the Five Film Makers Festival back in early May. It was a very strange feeling to see it so large and so loud right in front of me and so many other people. Many friends, my family and a few actors showed up to watch both mine and my four other classmates films in a celebration of hard work.

I am so grateful for all of my friends and family who supported me through it all. It made the hardest parts a little less hard and the happiest parts a little more happy. I hope you, if I may call you my fans, will enjoy it as well. 

Thank you,

Samantha Russo

Philadelphia Graphic Design Firms?

It looks like I'm stuck in south Jersey for the Summer but that doesn't mean I'm going to waste it throwing pizzas every day --- I'd like to get an internship in the closest available city, which would be Philadelphia. Does anyone know of any respected/good Graphic Design Firms in Philadelphia that I could apply to/intern at?

If you are in the city or nearby, please come see my short film "Asterism" which I worked on all school year long. There are free drinks and food, not to mention entertainment and the opportunity to network.

My classmates and I worked very hard on these and we are hoping for a good turnout, anything less than 150 people will be a disappointment for 9 months of producing, casting, location scouting, writing, directing and many hassles in between. Your support is greatly appreciated and welcomed! 

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

All are welcome to the 2012 Project Class' FIVE FILMMAKERS FESTIVAL at the SVA Theatre -- as part of the BFA Advertising and Graphic Design department at the School of Visual Arts. Food & drink will be served by Bread in Nolita at 6pm, with five short films to follow at 7pm. The evening will culminate with one short film winning "Best of Show". 

The Five Filmmakers Festival features five original short films produced for Bob Giraldi's Project Class. The Project Class is an honors course for Advertising and Graphic Design undergraduate students to write, direct & produce a narrative short film as part of their training. This year\'s project class features Kelly Shami, Jessie Gang, Eric Whitney, Gabriel Gonzalez and Samantha Russo, who wrote and directed their first live action short films. These talented young filmmakers will premiere their work on Thursday, May 17th at the SVA Theater (333 W 23rd St).  This event is free and open to the public. Please RSVP to [email protected]

Ooooh I forgot about Muse...how is it?

Very, very, very cool. I just downloaded it today and I feel like I've pretty much got it down pat. It works very much so like INDD but a little bit more clunky and a little less control --- but it's still in Beta so I can't complain too much. 

I have to say it's much easier than Dreamweaver and really let's me, as a designer, concentrate on what I do best --- design.

In short, so far I've loved it.
