They have been viewed by millions (even prior to YouTube), <span class=\"text\">licensed by AtomFilms, Vivendi, Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) and Carsey-Werner Productions for ABC Television. Boneland.com also <\/span>helped launch the National Lampoon Humor Network in 2006 and has successfully wasted hundreds of thousands of man-hours the world over for over a decade.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why blog?<\/strong><br \/>\nI am making every effort to keep this weblog updated regularly for three reasons. Firstly, because a writer should write. Secondly, to keep the curious informed of my current endeavours. And finally to share my filmmaking experiences. During many years of motion picture storytelling in various forms I&#8217;ve received hundreds of emails asking about my techniques. I have answered all of them and will continue to do so. Notwithstanding this I thought a public log of miscellaneous tips and thoughts may also be helpful to those of like mind who &#8211; for reasons still mysterious to me &#8211; believe I have some wisdom to impart.<\/p>\n<p>To contact me just mail my first name + the name of this website.<\/p>\n<p><strong>More:<\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.tylergibb.com\/refrain\" target=\"_blank\">The Refrain Homepage<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/www.minushi.com\" target=\"_blank\">Minushi.com<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/name\/nm2699146\" target=\"_blank\">IMDb<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/www.boneland.com\" target=\"_blank\">Boneland.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Press:<\/strong><br \/>\n<em>Refrain<\/em><br \/>\n<font class=\"title1\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.montrealgazette.com\/entertainment\/movie-guide\/Montreal+World+Film+Festival+Local+drama+made+song\/1940327\/story.html\" target=\"_blank\">Drama made for a song<\/a><\/font> &#8211;<font> &#8220;Tyler Gibb tells a story of salvation through music with a tight budget but no end of dedication.&#8221; &#8211; John Griffin, Montreal Gazette<\/font><\/p>\n<p><font class=\"title1\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.montrealmirror.com\/2009\/082709\/film2.html\" target=\"_blank\">Bittersweet Music<\/a><\/font> &#8211;<font> &#8220;&#8230; a taut shooting and editing style and understated but powerful performances.&#8221; &#8211; Malcolm Fraser, Montreal Mirror.<\/font><\/p>\n<p><font class=\"title1\"><a href=\"http:\/\/tylergibb.com\/refrain\/news\/media\/24h_ici_article.gif\" target=\"_blank\">New Voice<\/a><\/font> &#8211; <font> &#8220;Refrain is built of silences that speak volumes, and interspersed with songs that express an incredible range of emotions.&#8221; &#8211; Natalia Wysocka, 24heures Montreal<\/font><\/p>\n<p><font class=\"title1\"><a href=\"http:\/\/cinestrata.com\/wordpress\/2009\/08\/mwff09-review-refrain\/\" target=\"_blank\">MWFF&#8217;09 Review: Refrain<\/a><\/font> <font>&#8211; &#8220;One the finest English-language Montr\u00e9al independent productions&#8230;&#8221; &#8211; Andr\u00e9s Canella, Cinestrata<\/font><\/p>\n<p>(For more <em>Refrain<\/em> press and interviews <a href=\"http:\/\/tylergibb.com\/refrain\/news\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\">click here<\/a>.)<\/p>\n<p><em>Minushi<\/em><br \/>\n<font face=\"arial, verdana, helvetica\" size=\"-1\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.montrealmirror.com\/2007\/070507\/film2.html\" target=\"_blank\">One-man movie<\/a><\/font> &#8211; Mirror<br \/>\n<font face=\"arial, verdana, helvetica\" size=\"-1\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flashmagazine.com\/1413.htm\" target=\"_blank\">Feature Length Film in Flash?<\/a> <\/font>&#8211; Flash Magazine<br \/>\n<font face=\"arial, verdana, helvetica\" size=\"-1\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.animationmagazine.net\/article\/6629\" target=\"_blank\">Doc Details Solo Feature Effort<\/a><\/font> &#8211; Animation Magazine<br \/>\n<font face=\"arial, verdana, helvetica\" size=\"-1\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.coldhardflash.com\/2007\/03\/minushi-director-reveals-production.html\" target=\"_blank\">Minushi Director Reveals Production Process<\/a><\/font> &#8211; Cold Hard Flash<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[For an up to date bio visit\u00a0tylergibb.com] 2010 &#8211; I&#8217;m currently writing and developing a couple feature films including one in association with Telefilm Canada.
