May 20, 2008 by wilmington.
An (almost) just the facts account.
And it’s really just festivals. No parties. Or wild times.
So…sorry to get any hopes up about that other stuff. We’ll try harder.
1) bailey won “Best Avant Garde Film” at the Cape Fear Independent Film Festival. Very gratifying - we think this film deserves this and even more recognition. At the same time, it’s a difficult film that continues to haunt me. Even as we filmed and edited it, we knew that it wouldn’t have been created or executed as it was without tragedy and loss.
2) Reclusive artiste and real estate impresario David Brigham got unconditional adulation at the “Sister City Film Festival” in New Bern, NC for his work on “Downed” - a short film about a downed WWII pilot. Sea Shanty shipmate Evan Brinkley’s film was apparently the belle of the ball at “Sister City.”
3) The writing team of Long & Wilmington return to the writing trenches this month to chisel a new screenplay out of our modest ambitions to write a perfect, big time Hollywood movie that is a deep, funny, exciting, gripping, marketable Noir. This could take at least a week or two.
4) Based on X-GEN getting into the Indie Grits festival and bailey winning at Cape Fear, I’ll be updating our IMDB entries soon.
So…if you aren’t already a member of IMDB and you’ve seen any of our films AND have an opinion of any kind, please register (you never get any spam form IMDB) so that you can rate and comment on them.
As always…comments here make us happier than that bowl of Life cereal at 11:30pm.
