Getting ready for the premiere of Elegy

Posted in Uncategorized on Feb 10, 2008

Today Elegy, the latest Isabel Coixet movie starring Penelope Cruz, Sir Ben Kingsley (in all the invitations he is referred as Sir, see here the one for tonight Berlinale08dinner after the premiere) and Dennis Hopper (who unfortunately, it is not here in Berlin, all the others are). Yesterday I bunch of people that are coming to attend the premiere came and we did some sightseeing, dinner and drinks. It was a lot of fun even though there was some weird nervousness on the air. The movie stars at 7pm, then dinner sponsored by L’Oreal (they have blanketed Berlin with pictures of Penelope) and then party at a Scholoss Hotel that apparently, has been refurnished by Karl Lagerfeld. Unfortunately, tomorrow also starts the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona and I need to get an early flight so I will not be able to stay for long but at least I will catch up most of the action. The experiment we are carrying with Kyte and Terra has been more complicated than expected, the N95 is a bit of a nightmare to use and the 3G connection here is not very good for videos. Anyway, all problems have been solved and I uploaded few videos to their Kyte chanel and lots more to my personal channel embedded below (I did not want to spam Terra viewers who are probably not interested in my personal pics and videos but are just looking for celebrities) as well as pictures in my Flickr account. You can spot many celebrities around here (yesterday night at the restaurant Catherine Deneuve was sitting at a corner table) but I have only recorded the ones I know since it seems very annoying when people come and asks for pictures (and they are doing it all the time…). Now out for lunch and to check out the Film Market where all the production companies are showing their new movies and then heading for the premiere.

    I am the director for Internet and Multimedia for Telefónica R&D, based in Barcelona where I managed their R&D center. I have been a bit all over the place for the last 15 years, specially in Tokyo, my favorite town, and finally came back in mid 2006 to my home town. I like everything that has to do with the Internet, computers, software and gadgets, not just the geeky aspect but also the business side. I also love reading (business essays mainly) and TV series and movies as well as having a good dinner and night out with my friends.
