Filmmaking: “Available Light” by Glen Pearcy

Available Light
by Glen Pearcy
Publisher’s Note
Once a year, Filmmaker Glen Pearcy, makes a film for his own enjoyment
and makes it available to a small circle of friends.
In 2012, he created “Available Light” to illustrate his belief a film can “tell the story”
without narration. You be the judge.
Glen Pearcy was nominated for an Academy Award in 1975 for his third film, “Fighting For Our Lives”, a feature-length documentary film about the United Farm Worker’s grape strike. Since then he has written, produced and directed dozens of films, including documentaries for PBS and Turner Network Television; films and video programs for labor unions, consumer organizations, environmental groups, government agencies and political organizations; and television and radio spots for public interest groups, foundations, political candidates and commercial clients.
