3 Leg Torso demonstrates the seemingly endless possibilities of its music over the next month — starting tonight in Portland.

The 2009 short film “Walter Ate a Peanut,” conceived and directed by Robin Willis—and with an original score by our own 3 Leg Torso—has been accepted into the Short Film Corner at the 2009 Cannes Film Festival. Additionally, the film is one of 10 finalists in two of the competitions within the festival: Amazon and The Film Board of Canada.

ISES Portland Swanky Warehouse Event

Bravo Publications — Fri, 27 Mar 2009 01:20:36 +0000

WOW! What a success the March ISES (International Special Events Society) meeting was!

Not only did attendees see what can be done to an everyday empty warehouse, after a delicious lunch and great entertainment by Portland’s premier jazz saxophonist, Patrick Lamb, the attendees got to hear each vendor tell “how they did it” in a hands-on, interactive presentation…all under one roof. We learned that seamless creative collaboration to create an amazing event space is critical! Thank you to all six top-notch event production vendors that “pimped our warehouse” and miraculously turned the Luxe Autohaus into a swanky lounge:

•Scott Galloway of West Coast Drape for room draping and rigging

•Bob Zavada of Stages Northwest for riser decking, carpet and skirting

•Dwayne Thomas of Hollywood Lighting Services for lighting and LED video

•Nick Apap of Royce’s Prop Shop for tabletop and hanging decors, scenery and sets

•Maria Corvallis of Peter Corvallis Productions for furnishings and linens

•Matt Harper of Henry V for podium, sound reinforcement and powerpoint video projection

ISES also thanks the following companies for their assistance in making this “show and tell” event happen:

•Tim Michaels and Shellie Thornton at Luxe Autohaus for hosting the meeting

•Peter Barnett and Michael Peters of Premiere Catering for providing a delicious lunch

•Patrick Lamb Band for the fabulous entertainment

•A Swank Affair for the programs

•Alesia Zorn Calligraphy for the beautiful hand painted and calligraphy menu signs

In attendance was Kathy Newby, the Regional ISES VP, who told the ISES Portland board members following the event “You have really raised the bar on monthly meetings for all of ISES with this event!”
