Dainty Deathy Production News
Fall 2009:
Fellow filmmaker and paddling friend Mikkel St. Jean Duncan's spectacular Endangered Creeks Expedition DVD is on sale now for $5.00 (reg $15). Makes a perfect stocking stuffer and spreads the word on private power projects and the impact they have on our regional waterways. If everyone from the paddling community picked up a copy and then gave it to say 2 friends, we would have that many more in the know. Any orders received through Dainty Deathy get a FREE DVD copy of Symbiosis. So why not donate to a good cause and help make these suckas fly off the virtual shelf! Contact us if you would like to order a copy or purchase one direct from Mikkel here.
In other exciting news, our latest short paddling release Lucky 13 is currently making it's way to an independent film festival near you! Up coming premiers include the infamous Rossland Mountain Film Festival, Nov. 19-22, 2009. Be sure to look for us in your local film festival program, or let us know if we happen to be missing from the bill? We would love to hear from you!

After an entire year of gathering images, followed by many weeks of layout planning, only to be followed by many days of editing, we are extremely pleased to present our latest work "Symbiosis." Presented by members of the Endangered Creeks Expedition (ECE), Symbiosis introduces rare and beautiful views down some of our region's most unique creeks that have recently been chosen for hydro-electric development. An official premier will take place at the 3rd annual North Valley Mountain Film Festival, Feb. 28th, 2009 at the Bosun Hall in New Denver, BC. This great local event will be sure to impress after a standing room only crowd has flooded the floors at previous year's events.
