Jamesie doc travels to Denmark


In April, the film and I went to Aarhus, Denmark to be screened in the AFIA Film and Video Festival. Aarhus is a lovely city, and Denmark a fairy-tale land....clean, beautiful, and friendly. The organizer of the festival is Russian, living in Denmark and an expert in animation. The animation in the festival was excellent and not typical of what I have seen in the past.
The festival itself was not promoted very well, and most of the festival attendee's were other filmmakers from all over the world. My screening of Jamesie, King of Scratch, was held in a magnificent theater in the newly built music hall with excellent projection quality. The response was positive, giving a good idea of what life is like in the Virgin Islands.
