Finding Stories at Sundance
The Sundance Film Festival experience is all about finding stories. From the discovery of artistic innovation, to inspiration that comes from accidental encounters with strangers, each impression has the potential to materialize in some enduring form. Or at the very least, to provoke a new blog posting.
Cranes, clock towers and park benches were among the Park City images that caught my eye because they have become the through-line connecting my travels this past year

What intoxicating storyline might these images spawn? Consider the benches from three other cities I visited this past year:
The copper-lit figure in Toronto might conjure up a period thriller.
The peaceful setting of the quintessential Frenchman at the Biarritz train station could erupt into an ironic farce.
Or, a magical love story may well transform the woman in Leuven into a sultry dancer on a moonlit night, inhibitions erased by a pitcher of high octane Belgian beer.
As I recall the images of Sundance '09, I can only imagine, like the pre-screening teasers compelling me to do: WHAT NEXT?
I can see that you are an expert in this field! I am launching a website soon, and this information is very useful for me. Thanks for all your help and wishing you all the success in your business.
