- Life Notes - is an ambient experimental film. This work is a video meditation on one's existence. It arises from the need to look past the confines of traditional photography and use multimedia arts as a language to discuss the meaning of life and our ability to stop and contemplate. Lynn Bianchi spent several weeks in Connecticut, photographing and filming her friend, artist Doug Rice. Lynn wanted to capture his larger-than-life spirit and restless personality. She felt that his joie de vivre, his hopes, and at the same time his sadness stood for something deep inside us all. A reminder that life is nothing but a circle, and, as they say, everything passes. The result of that collaboration is Life Notes - an ensemble of experimental videos nestled in magical realism, depicting one's strange and joyful existence. The film invites self-reflection and pulls the viewer into the dream-like sequences, inviting them to revel in their strangeness and calmness. Life Notes is a celebration of life and death and passing of time. Sounds of distant music and falling rain draw the audience further in. How can we take the mundane and make it otherworldly for ourselves? Here Lynn Bianchi creates an environment, where the audience falls into introspection with ease. One's response to this ethereal imagery is deeply personal.
- It's easy to forget that the New England Patriots were once the laughingstock of the NFL, a nearly bankrupt team that had never won a championship and was on the brink of moving to St. Louis. Everything changed in 1994, when Robert Kraft acquired the franchise. Since then, the Patriots became a juggernaut, making ten trips to the Super Bowl, winning six of them, and emerging as one of the most valuable sports teams in the world with an estimated value of $4 billion. Executive Producer Robert Doran interviews Jeff Benedict, author of The Dynasty and New York Times #1 Bestselling author of Tiger Woods. Doran sat with Benedict at Elm Street Books in New Canaan for an intimate discussion about leadership and the greatest wining streak in NFL history.
- Three friends and a drugged out gun dealer decide to rob a bank, nothing goes as planned.
- Nominated for a Boston/New England Emmy in 2011 for Outstanding Arts/Entertainment. Full of temperamental props and bloopers, the documentary follows a production of "Arcadia," a 1993 play by Tom Stoppard, over eight weeks - from auditions through strike. With its large cast, period costumes and props, and other elements it provides a great example of the herculean effort it takes to mount a play. It is that spontaneous nature of live theater that the 'Players' are hoping to convey in the film. It is the idea that something fresh and new is created every single night a play is performed. It is the idea that a first-time actor finally finds his or her stride an hour before opening night. It is the sense that all those unexpected behind-the-scenes moments are sometimes more interesting than the production taking place on stage.
