Paul Meyers’ “Penultimate” Documentary Great Success – Pen Hard Hat on SF360

Pen Guy Hard Hat on the cover of SF360

My pen covered hard hat made the front page of SF360 a Daily News & Features from America’s Film & Media Frontier. Published by the San Francisco Film Society.

Eight first-year students in the Stanford MFA in Documentary Film program screened their works to a packed house Tuesday at the University’s Annenberg Auditorium, each between three and four minutes. Paul Meyers was one of those students who was first up with his documentary movie called ‘Penultimate’ about me the Pen Guy and the Mercedes Pens Art Car.

I got word back today from Paul saying the movie was a great success and people laughed and really enjoyed themselves. There was also many questions about the Pen Guy during the reception like how he found me and do I really drive that car every day. I missed this screening this time but Paul said there might be screenings of “Penultimate” in the future so I will definitely be going and letting you all know the details as I get them. Great Job Paul.

Last Sunday during the making of the Pen Guy documentary we shot the creation of the pen covered mail box version 2.0. Paul filmed me in my workshop opening up my mail, taken the pens out and covering this mail box with donated pens. I was also filmed picking up this box of pens at the Forestville post office.
The used pens were donated by Hanna F. and sent in from Washington DC who also said in a note:

“Enjoy the pens! I hope they live on in an awesome art project”. – Hannah

Thank you Hanna, your pens will live on my new pen covered mail box for a long time. And it will make my mail man and my neighbors smile come rain or shine.
