Fellow Atlanta film makers Blake Myers and Mark Wynn are nearly a decade in on production of Disabled but Able to Rock!, and are looking to turn up production a notch in 2009. Kicking of this new energy was a fund raising party on Wednesday December 10th 2008 at the 5 spot in Atlanta’s Little 5 Points. The evening featured a live performance from Danger Woman herself, which was outstanding.
If you don’t know much about the Danger Woman project follow the link above and get yourself up to speed. While you are there, why not consider contributing to the project. The rough cuts of the film have been assembled, and if the director/producer team can acquire the resources, it will indeed be a documentary worth watching.

1 year agoDick-George, Tenn-Tom
In 1971, President Richard M. Nixon visited Mobile, AL for 104 minutes, during which time he shook 100 feet of hands, lost a cufflink, and shared a stage with his biggest political rival, Governor George Wallace. “Dick-George, Tenn-Tom” is a sardonic look at their rivalry, the creation of the Tennessee-Tombigbee Waterway, and the attempt on Wallace’s life less than a year later.

Clandestine
“Clandestine” is the history from 1940 to the present day of encoded shortwave radio broadcasts used to communicate from home governments to spies in the field, also known as Numbers Stations.
“Clandestine” is one man’s story of his secretive father, a shortwave radio operator and Numbers Stations enthusiast, and the gulf in communication that exists between them.
Half fiction and half fact, “Clandestine” intertwines these two stories to show how childish fantasies can lead personal heroes to public villainy.
Made entirely from ephemeral films (news reels, movie serials, industrial and educational films, etc.) existing within the public domain, this approximately 20 minute short will be the third project from Gideon C. Kennedy and Marcus Rosentrater and will see completion by the end of 2008.
