Hey Johnny and Steven!

Long time no see!

It was a wonderful night last night.  The film turned out awesome and got an awesome response.  There were six or seven films on the same block as us and they were all great.  I was really surprised by how good all the films were.

The Q&A after the film was a little rushed because the next block of films had to start playing, but needless to say, as we were leaving the lobby, I got a ton of questions about the story from different people.  It was nice to see a lot of people paid attention and got those themes that I was going for in the story.

Then, of course, there's always that one nutty director who loved your work and wants to work with you on their next film about a Luke Skywalker meets Bruce Lee type character that fights in ballet choreography.  (I'm not shitting, that's how he described his film to me.)  Just so everybody knows, I was in a very good mood and was very polite about not taking it.  Then, he said he got Spinderella from Salt-N-Pepa attached and I got weak in the knees and I took his card.

The best part was hanging out with everybody involved with making the film afterwards.  They're all genuinely nice people and a very close knit film family.

Anyway, the awards show's tonight and it is nominated for Best Short Film.  There were some great films on our block, though, (including another one about the death penalty and they played our films back to back.)  I won't be too upset if we don't take it.

If anyone has a chance to check out 'The Last 40 Miles', (the other one about the death penalty), you will not be disappointed.  I've never been so affected by an animated movie before.  And a german movie called 'Great'.  (Kevin L. if you're reading this, I thought about you as I watched it.)

Anyway, thanks everybody again!

I guess it's late to give a review. Lol.

Congrats man. Hopefully those networks prove useful. It will be a good time to showcase your other short, Ginger.

Hey Libby and John.

Thank you very much!

We didn't take the award, but it was still an awesome time and a great experience and gave me real insight into getting out there and promoting your film.

And this happened to be taken as I was fielding a question:

Thanks Toby!

Next on the agenda is cutting a trailer for it, then some more festivals, and then the producers do want to make dvd hard copies available, complete with behind the scenes.

And how's this for swagger: Underneath my button-up, I'm wearing my 'Youngstown - Duck Motherfucker' shirt.  :-)

Man, that's all looks cool. Hanging about on stage with producers and actors - wow

The only downside is that your photos has reduced this thread to a pin prick on my iPad  

Well done

Thanks, Bill!

And sorry about the size.  I have no idea how to resize the pictures.  :-)

And congrats on all your recent success, too!  (I know I've told you that four or five times now, but I'm superexcited for you!)

Don't take it  to offence but I don't want to read the script, I like the plot but don't want to see the ending and would like to see it in film. How can I see the movie when I'm from the UK? Haha.

Hey Nathan.  No offense taken.  The film is still making the festival rounds, but there will be a dvd cut at a later date and will be available on the facebook page.  I'm not sure if there's any youtube plans or anything.

Youngstown,

Again, a big congrats on this. The trailer does a great job of setting the mood here. Looks like a big production. Especially like the scene of him holding a gun to his head in the street in front of the police.

Fine work to be proud of.

James

Mark,

Big congrats. Every time I see a movie produced, it inspires the rest of us that are serious about the craft. I look forward to seeing the actual movie.
