Chase Korte: 1982 - 2007
February 15, 2007
Kevin from Video Haiku writes:
My good friend Chase Korte died in a car accident last weekend, in Los Angeles. He was 24.
I was lucky to know him, lucky to work with him, and lucky to have all this super-8 footage of him still on my hard drive, from a short film I shot for him last summer.
So, even though he was the writer, director and producer of that film, I took the creative liberty of appropriating his footage and cutting together something of my own, to hold onto and remember him by.
Hope he doesn't mind.

Thank you, this is a wondeful way to remember a friend. Chase was a great guy and even if we spent not so much time together I will miss him a lot.

He was brilliant in everything he did. I told him he was going to be the next Robert Carlyle. Thanks for the tribute.
