aGLIFF gives first time directors a chance to show off their "maiden" film projects. Wow, I have not thought of myself as a maiden before. Hehehehe, it's like the Quincenieta I never had. While my ultimate goal is for str8 audiences to see the film because they need to be educated about the growing epidemic in their community, I know the GLBTQ community will cackle at the witty lines, cat call at the sexy images, and take pride in the grassroots support and leadership that our community has shouldered from the beginning of the epidemic until HIV/AIDS is no more.

Cross your fingers and light a candle for me. I just submitted Art Erotica to the Austin Film Festival. My goal is to raise awareness about US HIV/AIDS outside the Gay community. Getting accepted into festivals like this would an amazing opportunity to educate a wider audience about the growing epidemic in our local community as well as give the Octopus Club the props they desire.

Given the US's prudish views toward sexuality and sinner stigma around HIV/AIDS, I knew that Art Erotica The Movie could elicit negative reactions. Well, I can already put a check mark in that box.
It is easier to believe that HIV/AIDS is something that happens to "Them" and not "Us". Hearing that the virus could infect you or someone you love can generate fear that turns into misplaced anger. That is exactly what happened in this case.

Looks like the staff and bands of Comfort Stand have moved on to other projects. I wish them well. For us, the good news is that the site will still be up and the music the current library of music will still be available.

Last night I was put in the "Hot Seat" during last night Bootstrap Film monthly meeting. I presented Art Erotica and described how I was using bootstrap concepts to promote the film. The filmmakers then got to ask their questions; thus, the "hot seat". They had great suggestions.
