Sure the Packers won last night and it was a great game (unless, of course, you were pulling for the Steelers). The commercials are always a draw for us, even if our team's not playing, and this year's crop of mini-movies (that's what they are) was pretty good. The one that's still with us the next day...

Back on point
We're amassing quite an impressive list of filmmaker interviews for the Feb 16th print/web edition of The Lowcountry Weekly showcasing The Beaufort Int'l Film Fest. Next up is American composer, Charles David Denler.

| Composer Charles David Denler |
Denler will be honored with the Jean Ribaut Award for Excellence in Music for Film at the Feb 19th Awards Gala. Denler's name may not ring as many bells as John Williams or Ennio Morricone, but he's definitely an artist with that sort of potential. Here's a slice of his bio from the BIFF website:
With nearly 100 films and television programs to his credit, Charles' multiple Emmy Award-winning music can be heard all over the world. His ability to work in a wide variety of genres, and his collaborative work sense, has made him a top choice among producers and directors. Charles' classical training and strong proficiency with contemporary sound allow him great flexibility and versatility as a composer.
You can check out the Emmy winning composer's resume and sample his work right here and enjoy Denler's funky score for this short animated film:
We'd like to think that maybe one day soon we'll sit back in a darkened movie theater and munch our popcorn to Denler's score for a feature film shot in the Lowcountry...
