My thanks to you!

Have an brilliant holiday! I hope all of you amazing patrons of the arts are about to partake in something that brings you much joy. If not, you should be. Come join me for a walk or something! I always have time for you folks!


I just wanted to share with you my gratitude and thanks for all your support over the last year. You guys totally inspire me.


I do apologize for not being able to produce as many documentaries for you on a consistent basis as I had originally wanted to, but until the patreon budget increases to a sustainable level, I must continue to divide my time between producing you guys these amazing documentaries and taking on other jobs that enable me to pay some bills.


All in all we had a pretty great year and we were able to donate money to some great charities, including: The Michael J. Fox Foundation, The Fund For Global Human Rights, The Naraya Cultural Preservation Council & the Gay & Lesbian Victory Institute. Hopefully next year, with your help to get the word out amongst your friends about this arts and culture adventure we are on, we will be able to support more artists and more charities in our mission to make the world a better place!


Additionally, we got some of our arts and movies into some amazing festivals and won a bunch of amazing awards...all of which could not have happened without your help!


I am forever grateful for all that you do and I am hoping to complete at least one more documentary for you before the end of the year. So stay tuned and share this project with your friends!


Much Love,

Brian A. Bernhard

Artist Jabu's Gallery Exhibition Promo

Hey folks, so I know this event has passed, but I wanted to give you a teaser for the next documentary profile I will be posting. It's a bit different from all the comedy / physical performer docs I have been doing for A FOOL'S IDEA, but this is the beginning of a new fine artist series. I think you will love these new stories and you will love Jabu! And don't worry, new episodes of A FOOLS IDEA will keep coming as I have time to edit them! Thanks for your continued support and helping us promote great artists!

FROM THE ARCHIVES: "Duo Rococo" @ The 2010 NOLA Fringe Festival

Another great clown theater performance from our archives! This was a wonderful show performed by Jessica Arpin and Luca Regina; directed by Tom Greder! A couple of the amazing artists featured in some of the episodes of A FOOL'S IDEA! The performance took place at the New Orleans Fringe Festival in 2010!


It is a wonderful story about a magician and his assistant.


I jumped on a plane from NYC, to head down there and document the show with the best gear I had access to at the time, a Canon Vixia camcorder and a couple of Flip cameras.


Enjoy this lovely little highlights reel.


Thanks,

Brian
