    ABOUT THE DVD

    HEAD FIRST is about pushing your limits, taking risks and moving into unknown territory without letting fear get in your way. HEAD FIRST explores Rozalind’s passion for combining music with silent film, and focuses on the people and places she has connected with during her six years touring across Canada in a wood-panelled station wagon. She features her favourite instrument, the flute.

    Filmmakers from across Canada were asked to create silent films inspired from Rozalind’s compositions. Film locations range from the Belcher Islands in Nunavut to the Dempster Highway in Yukon Territory to Fogo Island in Newfoundland and Labrador and finally Toronto Island where Rozalind grew up. Film mediums range from digital HD to hand-processed black and white (16mm Bolex) to 35mm Ektachrome colour reversal film.

    Over 24 filmmakers and musicians contributed to this project:

    Scott Amos, Jean-Claude Batista, Mark Borowski, Joel Heath, Darryl Hopkins, Nicholas Kovats, Roger Maunder, Flamingo Pudding, Gina Rae Anderson, Dan Sokolowski and Ed Tanasychuk, Curtis Andrews, Rick Bailey, Veronica Charnley (Plumes), Dennis Gamberg, Geof Holbrook (Plumes), Matthew Hornell, Rozalind MacPhail, MouthPEACE, Mark Neary (Novaks), Stephen Pitkin (Elliott Brood), Scott Stevenson, Brad Weber (Caribou/Pick a Piper) and Mike Yates (Amos the Transparent).

    HEAD FIRST was nominated for an ECMA and MusicNL award. It has been showcased at film festivals across Canada and the U.S and was featured at TEDx St. John's.

Music by Rozalind MacPhail

Film by Gina Rae Anderson

"Victoria Street" from the Head First DVD project.

When I first moved to St John's, I rented an apartment on the middle block of Victoria Street. Now I live at the top of Victoria Street where everyone is scared to park because of how steep the street is. Victoria Street is home - I love my neighbours and the vibe of living on this street that has so much history.

Gina Rae Anderson's touching film was shot on a sunny summer day and will be a day I will never forget. Since this film was made, relationships have come and gone, cars have been sold and replaced and neighbours have moved to new homes. But the street remains as beautiful as ever and the top of Victoria still has one of the most breathtaking views in the city. So grateful to be living on Victoria Street with such a wonderful and warm group of people. St. John's is for families. : )
