MIPtalk co-host Brad Rowe has brought numerous characters to life in a range of Film and TV roles but the one fans always ask him about is Shaun.

Shaun is the writer who develops a deep emotional and physical bond with the budding painter/graffiti artist Zach in the 2007 independent feature film Shelter, written and directed by Jonah Markowitz. The winner of the 2008 Audience Award for Dramatic Feature at Outfest, the film was heralded as a reinvention of LGBT film making that defies the conventions of gay cinema to tell a heartfelt and authentic love story in a unique setting.

In partnership with the Screen Actors Guild LGBT Actor’s Committee, MIPtalk presented a screening of Shelter on Saturday, April 17, 2010, to an enthusiastic, capacity audience in Los Angeles.

The screening was followed by a lively and informative Q&A featuring Shelter star Brad Rowe, its writer/director Jonah Markowitz, and here! Network’s Director of Development Billy Cogar, all of whom shared their recollections in making the film. The event was moderated by Zino Macaluso, SAG national director/sr. counsel, Agency Relations.

This is Episode 36 of MIPtalk.

    I absolutely loved listening to this. They mentioned getting financing for movies. I know Rob Williams and Rodney Johnston who started GuestHouse films, which make gay related films, decided to get the public involved with their current project role/play.They are shooting it right now in Florida. They used kickstarter so the public could be part of the project and help finance it. I absolutely love their movies. Just an idea just in case Jonah ever wants to do another project. His fans would rally behind him :-) ,
    The man is talented.

    itsasickness.comAt the Live Out Loud Gala in New York last week there was an inspiring filmmaker named John. He was presented with an award for launching The Diversity Project which organized a group of faculty and students to implement LGBT awareness activities in advisory classes and faculty meetings. In addition to that he has produced 2 films already and is the subject of an upcoming documentary. Check out this video of his talking about why filmmaking is important to him… so charming!!! : http://www.itsasickness.com/lounge/john-dargan-obsessed-filmmaking

    Would be quite interesting, but sadly it sounds as if it’s been recorded in a big cave with a cheap dictaphone.

    Viewing this gave me the most butterflies in my tummy feeling since (watching the film and) the character of “Blaine” appeared on Glee. These are the most talented guys I have seen in a while, and I very much hope they will have more projects together in the future. Keep up the effervescent work!
