RINGO - inspired by Ennio Morricone's "Angel Face"
Daydreaming can be quite a downer when reality gets in the way. A quirky fellow muses to his friend about cars, cowboys, and horses, or no, ponies. His colorful imagination twists and turns as his friend attempts to keep his fantasies on track in an interchange reminiscent of Linklater dialogue.

Filmmakers can buy subscribers, channel views, comments, likes, friends, the whole works, but few can buy laughs - because they're hard to come by and very expensive. Creating a funny viral video is very hard, an entire comedy web series isn't any easier. That said, the web is a place to be discovered. Meet the new wave of indie filmmakers whose videos have gone "immortal" on Funny or Die, played at Sundance, and on appeared on national TV.

Eadweard Muybridge has been an inspiration to us at PAIFF ever since we learned of the experiments that took place in Palo Alto back in 1878 that led to the evolution of motion pictures. When a horse is running, do all four hooves ever leave the ground at the same time? That was the wager that the former Governor of California Leland Stanford had with some of his friends. There was much controversy in horse racing circles at the time, and though most people believed that a horse always has one hoof in contact with the ground, Stanford thought otherwise. Because a horse's legs are moving so fast, it's impossible to tell just by looking, so he needed a way to slow down the movement so it could be studied.
In 1872 Stanford offered Eadweard Muybridge, a world-famous photographer of landscapes, $25,000 to find the answer. Muybridge wasn't quite sure he could set up and perform an experiment to settle the dispute, but with that much money at stake, he agreed to take on the challenge. In 1878, after many experiments, he succeeded in achieving the results he needed to settle the bet and collect the $25,000. He had a sequence of 12 images, and one of them clearly showed that all four of the horse's hooves were off the ground at the same time. It was the first successful photographic representation of a sequence of movement, and it made him an international star.
What if we were able to modernize the motion experiment that took place at the Stanford Stock Farm in 1878? Could we possibly have the Muybridge horse running through the streets of Palo Alto more than a century later? With great excitement, we invited two French filmmakers, who have perfected the art of street mapping, Romain Vollet and Julien Nonnon of Le3 Paris, to ask them for advice on how to actualize our own version of the historical event. With the assistance of the French American Cultural Society, the French Consulate, and Uber, we flew them out to Palo Alto to assist us in producing the trailer.
Filming took place over two nights, navigating the landmarks of Palo Alto from sundown until early morning. Some creative driving, an incredibly patient Uber driver, some luck with extra Caltrains (thanks Giants!), and plenty of encouragement from the patrons pouring out of Rudy's and Antonio's Nut House at closing time, led to plenty of great material in the can.
Romain, Julien, and our own Director of Programming, Alf Seccombe, edited about twelve hours of filming down to the one minute trailer. We then found the perfect soundtrack, produced by Adam Forkner, to match the mesmerizing gallop of Muybridge's horse through the city streets. The finished trailer was completed with no post-processing of the originally shot material - a mantra of the team at Le3 Paris. We'd like to think Muybridge would be proud to be the inspiration for our trailer, a modernized version of his horse galloping alongside each of the Palo Alto Int'l Film Festival venues.

Bracken Ridge, Queensland
Bracken Ridge is a northern suburb of Brisbane, the capital city of Queensland, Australia. Its local government area is the City of Brisbane, in which it has its own ward.
Location
The suburb is located about 18 kilometres (11 mi) north of the Brisbane central business district. The southern border is formed by Telegraph Road, one of the oldest roads in the suburb, and a portion of the western border is formed by the Caboolture railway line. A number of housing estates are located within the suburb, including The Oaks, Enbrook Heights and the most recent development Sungate Estate.
The terrain in the suburb is, as the name suggests, generally hilly. The highest area of the suburb features a park and a reservoir; from this height it is quite easy to see Moreton Bay to the east and the CBD to the south.
Bracken Ridge is home to a variety of persons on the socio-economic scale. The majority of residents are professional couples and families. The estates south of Barbour Road, the homes surrounding the "ridge" and St Joseph's church, the areas on top of the hills, "Enbrook Heights Estate" and the most recent development "Sungate Estate" are affluent. The average price for a home in the suburb was $460,000 in 2012 . 86% of these homes are owner-occupied or in the process of being purchased.

Young Dracula
Young Dracula is a British teenage horror drama television series which aired on CBBC, loosely based on Young Dracula and Young Monsters, a children's book by Michael Lawrence. The final episode aired on 31 March 2014.
The first two series follow the Dracula family, a family of vampires: Vladimir (Vlad), his father Count Dracula, and sister Ingrid. Having lived in Transylvania, they move to Stokely, a small town in Wales after various incidents involving angry peasant mobs. It was filmed in various locations around Wales, including Ysgol Gyfun Gymraeg Glantaf, Caerphilly Castle, Tretower Court and parts of Llantrisant. Directed by Joss Agnew, the first series was broadcast in 2006, and the second series, which started in late 2007, concluded in early 2008. { The third series, commissioned three years after the second, sees Vlad and the Count flee both vampires and slayers, while the Count is determined that Vlad should fulfil his destiny to become "the Chosen One". This series was filmed in Liverpool during 2011, in various locations including the disused Margaret Bevan School, Croxteth Hall and Stanley Docks. It began airing on 31 October 2011. The fourth series follows on from season three's predicament and was helmed by a new director, and began airing on 29 October 2012. Young Dracula was renewed for a fifth and final series in 2013, with filming beginning in April. The hour long finale, "The Darkest Hour", aired 31 March 2014.

Film festival
A film festival is an organized, extended presentation of films in one or more cinemas or screening venues, usually in a single city or region. Increasingly, film festivals show some films outdoors. Films may be of recent date and, depending upon the festival's focus, can include international and domestic releases. Some festivals focus on a specific film-maker or genre (e.g., film noir) or subject matter (e.g., horror film festivals). A number of film festivals specialise in short films of a defined maximum length. Film festivals are typically annual events. Some film historians do not consider Film Festivals as official releases of film, like Jerry Beck. The best known film festivals are the Venice Film Festival, the Cannes Film Festival, the Toronto Film Festival, Sundance Film Festival, and the Berlin International Film Festival, the latter being the largest film festival worldwide, based on attendance. The Venice Film Festival is the oldest major festival. The Melbourne International Film Festival is the largest film festival in the Southern Hemisphere and one of the oldest in the world. A 2013 study found 3,000 active films festivals worldwide—active defined as having held an event in the previous 24 months.

Some creative driving, an incredibly patient Uber driver, some luck with extra Caltrains (thanks Giants!), and plenty of encouragement from the patrons pouring out of Rudy's and Antonio's Nut House at closing time, led to plenty of great material in the can.
Romain, Julien, and our own Director of Programming, Alf Seccombe, edited about twelve hours of filming down to the one minute trailer. We then found the perfect soundtrack, produced by Adam Forkner, to match the mesmerizing gallop of Muybridge's horse through the city streets. The finished trailer was completed with no post-processing of the originally shot material - a mantra of the team at Le3 Paris. We'd like to think Muybridge would be proud to be the inspiration for our trailer, a modernized version of his horse galloping alongside each of the Palo Alto Int'l Film Festival venues.

Eadweard Muybridge has been an inspiration to us at PAIFF ever since we learned of the experiments that took place in Palo Alto back in 1878 that led to the evolution of motion pictures. When a horse is running, do all four hooves ever leave the ground at the same time? That was the wager that the former Governor of California Leland Stanford had with some of his friends. There was much controversy in horse racing circles at the time, and though most people believed that a horse always has one hoof in contact with the ground, Stanford thought otherwise. Because a horse's legs are moving so fast, it's impossible to tell just by looking, so he needed a way to slow down the movement so it could be studied.
In 1872 Stanford offered Eadweard Muybridge, a world-famous photographer of landscapes, $25,000 to find the answer. Muybridge wasn't quite sure he could set up and perform an experiment to settle the dispute, but with that much money at stake, he agreed to take on the challenge. In 1878, after many experiments, he succeeded in achieving the results he needed to settle the bet and collect the $25,000. He had a sequence of 12 images, and one of them clearly showed that all four of the horse's hooves were off the ground at the same time. It was the first successful photographic representation of a sequence of movement, and it made him an international star.
What if we were able to modernize the motion experiment that took place at the Stanford Stock Farm in 1878? Could we possibly have the Muybridge horse running through the streets of Palo Alto more than a century later? With great excitement, we invited two French filmmakers, who have perfected the art of street mapping, Romain Vollet and Julien Nonnon of Le3 Paris, to ask them for advice on how to actualize our own version of the historical event. With the assistance of the French American Cultural Society, the French Consulate, and Uber, we flew them out to Palo Alto to assist us in producing the trailer.
