Her credits also include the acclaimed film [i]Deadline[/i], an investigation into Illinois Governor George Ryan’s commuting of death sentences. After premiering at the 2004 Sundance Film Festival, the film was broadcast on NBC.<BR/><BR/>Quite honestly, I know you may not recognize the titles, but if you’re interested in independent film and documentaries, she’s the kind of woman whose work and thoughts you’ll find quite interesting.<BR/><BR/>Chevigny's latest project is called <I>Election Day</I>. It documents the 2004 U.S. elections, from 11 locations, including a Native American reservation in South Dakota and polling stations in Florida. It will debut on the PBS series "P.O.V." on July 1.<BR/><BR/>She is currently in post-production on <I>The Dishes</I>, the story of a punk rock band that juggles family and careers in Chicago. Through her work at Arts Engine, Chevigny also oversees MediaRights.org and the <A HREF="http://www.mediathatmattersfest.org/" REL="nofollow">"Media That Matters Film Festival."</A> This year's festival debuts online on May 28, 2008. <BR/><BR/><B>You can LISTEN to this Mr. Media/BlogTalkRadio.com interview by clicking <A HREF="http://www.mrmedia.com/2008/05/katy-chevigny-election-day-deadline.html" REL="nofollow">HERE</A></B> .Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11597509758682459743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6942068.post-75825954306369702832008-01-11T00:21:00.000-07:002008-01-11T00:21:00.000-07:00WOW!
