Sandra Boynton's ONE SHOE BLUES starring B.B. King

The amazing B.B. King—along with some overambitious sock puppets—stars in this musical short film directed and designed by Sandra Boynton, and edited and mixed by Boynton with Michael Ford. The track was originally written and produced by Boynton and Ford for the celebrated album/songbook BLUE MOO: 17 Jukebox Hits from Way Back Never.

This short film was shot on 35mm film at Dreamvision Studios in Las Vegas on July 18, 2008. It was released as a book/DVD by Workman Publishing in September of 2009.

"This is my first film-directing experience, and I also got to take on the glorious complications of production design. Working with B.B. King is just fabulous. What a miracle he is."

This was shot at DREAM VISION STUDIOS in Las Vegas. We had the most fun and the owner Phyllis Carreon Taie is an amazing woman!!! They handled almost everything under one roof --- Catering, Wardrobe, Sets, Crew, Hair & Make-up Dept. and more. Dream Vision and Phylis Taie . . . . we give you 10 STARS !!! Your 16,000 sq.ft. facility is fabulous. Thank You!!!

This was fun. One of my favorite musicians, one of my favorite illustrators, and some of my favorite socks (didn't I see a cameo by a "Solemate Sock"?!)
