In July, Wojahn directed a short promo for the MN Green Party. It's done and now up on the Green Party site. Mark met their State Chair Brandon Long when Long was a special guest for "Running On Climate" at Casket Cinema. While Wojahn is not a registered Green, he does share a lot of their same values and beliefs.
Wojahn directed, shot and edited the music video, Absinthe Atmosphere - the first video from the MILITZËR album Ausflippen! Vol 1. The band released this in July 2017. Wojahn reached into his experimental film tool bag to make this floaty and trippy. Please like the band page for more MILITZËR muzik updates!
Mark Wojahn has released his latest documentary, "Joanne Wojahn:Her Life, Family & Jesus" on youtube.
This film was completed this year and given to his mother on Mother's Day. The film also screened at her family reunion in June. Wojahn made this as a tribute to his mother, her stories and the importance of family history.
Wojahn was thrilled to team up with professionals in the local film industry to help make this happen. Voiceover artist, Abby Stavig, voiced his grandmother, Henrietta "Hank" Eden, the sound mixed was polished by Uproar Music and Sound's Kent Militzer and original songs were provided by Saint Paul composer Richard Werbowenko.
Wojahn thanks his family in providing some of the 600 images that were scanned for the project and the hours of archival film that were digitized for the video. The film is available upon request on dvd and blu-ray. Please contact Wojahn for ordering info.
