One of Filmmaker Magazine's 25 New Faces 2009, Jody Lee Lipes wrote and directed a scripted adaptation of the Jerome Robbins ballet NY Export: Opus Jazz (SXSW '10). Starring members of the New York City Ballet and shot on 35mm, the film will air nationally on PBS's Great Performances as an hour long program in March of 2010. Jody's first feature length documentary, Brock Enright: Good Times Will Never Be The Same (slated for a 2010 release), premiered at SXSW '09, won a Special Jury Prize at Sarasota, and played the prestigious Hot Docs film festival in Toronto. In addition to lensing his own projects, Jody has earned DP credits on Afterschool (Cannes '08), Wild Combination: A Portrait of Arthur Russell (Berlin '08), Tiny Furniture (SXSW '10), Only Good Things (Rotterdam '10), and the forthcoming narrative feature Two Gates of Sleep. He lives and works in Brooklyn New York, and was recently honored with the Silver Nail Award. |
