More on Atelier Pictures
In the tradition of Griffith/Gish and Godard/Karina, the Grays have partnered in their effort to exploring and extending the frontiers of filmmaking. Paul Gray, listed in the “Who’s who in American Theatre”, is devoted to exploring new forms and extending the frontiers of filmmaking. Gretchen is a featured player in most of Paul’s plays and films, in addition to being a writer and sound designer. Much like D.W. Griffith’s progression from Biograph one-reelers to longer features, Atelier Pictures has produced a number of festival quality 15-30 minute short films. Atelier Pictures will be distributing four of these short films on DVD in 2007 as Three Shades of Gray. The company is currently exploring the ground floor relationships and investments necessary to realizing these efforts.
