🚗🧠Hello Philadelphia, hello world! We are in the home stretch of post-production on Car Brain, our feature documentary about the existential nature of parking and the conflict around cars in Philadelphia.
Today we are launching a crowdfunding campaign on @seedandspark to raise money for our talented post production team and distribution/marketing costs. Our goal is raise $5000 in 30 days. We have a few tiers of juicy incentives, like early access to the finished film. At the highest tier you can even own the camera we shot the film on (and partially broke)!
If you have a loved one who is suffering from “Car Brain” or parking-related trauma, please share this link with them, which you can find in the bio. You can follow @carbraindoc to stay updated on the film’s progress, and news about future screenings in a city near you!
Thank you so much for supporting our scrappy little movie!
Love,
Matt and Reed

So proud of my dad for publishing his first ever book of poetry at the age of 76. It’s called “Springing the Jewelweed” and it has lots of great poems about nature, imagination, his love of word play, and his experience with Parkinson’s Disease. I helped design the text on the cover. The book is on amazon for $15 I think. Love you dad ❤️

10 years ago I made a film called “Count to Ten and Blow” for my thesis at Concordia. Basically it’s about the anxieties of aging; a guys who’s turning 30 meets Death. Kind of a mumblecore Seventh Seal. I was 20 at the time so I have no idea why I didn’t make a movie about a guy turning 20 lol Anyway I’m actually turning 30 in a few weeks and wanted to revisit this weird time capsule/future vision piece. I don’t usually share my old stuff but thought it was a fun 2015/2016 Montreal throwback and actually holds up ok. I eat a lot of soup now!
Starring Adam Alberts, Adam Capriolo, Kathleen Stavert and Chris Sandiford (who looks great in the new film @payingforitfilm ) Link in Bio 🎈🎈🎈
