Marianne Dissard took this 35mm
photograph as she was standing next to ground crew cameraman Clay
Walker. The photo so perfectly matched
Clay's corresponding 16mm shot that it immediately became the film's trademark
"action still". It subsequently appeared in many film festival
catalogs & brochures, and was also used as the cover art for the film's VHS video
sleeve.
During production, Marianne & Clay both provided
invaluable assistance as ground crew 16mm camera operators. It's not everyday you
can talk somebody into standing in traffic to film outlaw BASE jumpers landing in the
streets.
Today, Clay Walker and Marianne Dissard
are working independent filmmakers. Clay and Marianne's short film "Post No
Bills" is a clever, celebrated and widely screened profile of guerrilla poster
artist/Political satirist Robbie Conal. Clay later produced & directed a feature version of Post No Bills
for PBS.
