REVIEWS
Imagining Home
"...captivating."
Portland Mercury, November 6, 2009

"The story told in this excellent film raises important issues about the use of housing and neighborhood design concepts to resolve complex social problems."
Ellen Shoshkes, PhD, Associate Professor
Nohad A.Toulan School of Urban Studies and Planning
Portland State University

"By focusing on those who are normally the victims of redevelopment and gentrification, this film makes us think about the effect of large-scale planning decisions on ordinary families' lives. It gives us hope about what can be done to build thriving communities."
Kate Davies, Chief Executive
Notting Hill Housing
London, England

"This is extraordinary filmmaking. Anyone who has an interest in community revitalisation cannot fail to be touched by the death of one community and the birth of another...a unique account of regeneration and renewal, and the tenacity of local people."
Professor Harris Beider, Academic Director
Institute of Community Cohesion
Coventry University, England

For Portland Sacred Harp -broadcast March 27, 2008 on Oregon Public Broadcasting's Oregon Art Beat program:

"Your video is just beautiful! As I watched it I saw folks I have sung with over the years and it makes me so thankful that I discovered Sacred Harp. It has led me safely through troubling times and helped me rejoice in good times." -Tennessee

"What an excellent piece! It's so refreshing that the filmmakers really took the time to gather good footage and understand their subject. The music and its singers are presented with great sensitivity, and they managed to cover pretty much the whole experience--leading (in all its colorful variety!), the different moods of the music, the food, the fellowship. That's a lot to pack into eight minutes!" -Massachusetts
