In this edition:
1) 'Wailin' Palin'
2) Cinekink pics now online
3) The closing credits
4) And a final brought to you by...
5) But wait, there's more!
Apologies for the delayed wrap-up, but sometimes life can’t be all about kinky cinema (it can’t?) and real-world stuff intervenes. All’s back to pretty good now, though – thanks for your patience! And onto..
1) WAILIN' PALIN!
Just think, if you'd had the foresight to purchase a CineKink NYC All-Access pass, you'd have had the opportunity to watch the cinematic gem "Wailin' Palin!" (aka CineKink NYC Trailer 2009) not once - but 13 times!! Kudos for that possibility go to the following cast, crew and enablers:
Starring - Elizabeth S.
Director/Camera - Bill Carpenter
Second Unit - Alan Levy
Writers - Alan Levy, with Steve Ovendon, Bill Carpenter, Elizabeth S. and Lisa Vandever, from a fragment of an idea by Lisa Vandever and the collective unconscious
Editor - Steve Ovendon
Producer - Lisa Vandever
For your viewing enjoyment - coming soon to YouTube:

2) CINEKINK PICS NOW ONLINE
Whether you're longing to relive the glory of CineKink NYC - or see all that you missed - we had some uber-talented photographers recording the scene.

4) AND A FINAL BROUGHT TO YOU BY...

They included Arena Studios, B-Side Entertainment, HX Magazine, Njoy and Soho Underground, along with DDevious Delights, Event Premiere, National Coalition for Sexual Freedom, Purple Passion and Redlight TV.
Community sponsors included Cake NYC, DomSubFriends, Gay Male S/M Activists, Leather Invasion, Lesbian Sex Mafia, New York Boys of Leather, NY Shooters, Pariah's MC, Pleasure Salon, Polyamorous NYC and The Eulenspiegel Society.
This sponsorship and support is absolutely critical to making CineKink happen. If you have the opportunity, please join us in thanking them for their backing of CineKink NYC - and of sex-positive film and video overall!
5) BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE!
Stayed tuned to this space for news on upcoming CineKink NYC encore screenings and other cinematic enticements - for instance, maybe set aside the evening of 3/23 and the afternoon of 3/29, with information coming shortly. (Really soon!)
Also look for advance notice as we take CineKink out on the road. We're still nailing down our schedule, so if you're interested in having CineKink come to you, drop us a line and we'll see what we can work out.
And be sure to watch for updates on our CineKink filmmaker alumni, along with information on what sex-positive and kink-friendly programming is available on video/DVD/online and where you can get it!
In closing - finally! - many, many thanks again to our filmmakers, our sponsors, our advertisers, our volunteers - and mostly especially, to you, our audience, for being a part of the CineKink community. It was a definite pleasure to have met with so many great and wonderful people over the course of the festival and we truly appreciate the enthusiasm you've given to CineKink.
Thank you!
Lisa Vandever
Co-Founder & Director, CineKink
