2006 World of Comedy Film Festival Update

A Particle of Just Watch It did not get into the World of Comedy Film Festival.

2006 Lake County Film Festival

We have learned that "True or False" did not get into the Lake County Festival. That leaves the Boston Festival as our last hope!

Durango and Delray Beach Festivals

We have not heard back on the status of "True or False" for the Durango and Delray Beach Festivals. Their sites have stated that their decisions have already been made and the submitters notified. Since we have not heard back from them I am assuming that we didn't get into either one of those festivals.

We have heard back from Atom Films and they have rejected the sketches we have sent them. We are working on getting some sent to ifilms and to get another 5 sent to Atom Films.

A Particle of JWI Sent to Another Festival

We have submitted A Particle of Just Watch It to the 13th annual South By Southwest Film Festival. It's from March 10, 2006 to March 18, 2006. They will announce which films got in around February 13th, 2006. I've heard some good things about this festival and how they treat the film makers there.

A Particle of Just Watch It Update

We have sent A Particle of Just Watch It to the fourth annual World of Comedy International Film Festival. This takes place in Toronto Canada from March 8-12, 2006. They will announce who has been accepted approximately January 20th, 2006. We think this is a great fit for our comedy show and a way to showcase our resident Canadian RJ Franklin in his homeland!

Last Festival Submission for True or False

True or False has been sent to the third annual Lake County Film Festival. It runs from March 02, 2006 to March 05, 2006. They will announce who was accepted around February 1st, 2006. Unless another festival really grabs me, (or doesn't cost anything to submit), this will be the last submission for True or False. It's been a great ride but it's time to move on and focus on other projects including the DVD for True or False. It was a great experience and it was great working with all those involved.

True or False Sent to Smogdance

True or False has been sent to the Smogdance Film Festival. It runs from January 20th-22nd, 2006. It was established in 1998 and keeps growing every year. They will notify who got in approximately December 22nd.

Sketches Submitted to AtomFilms

In an effort to get a wider audience for our sketches, we have submitted our first group of five to AtomFilms. If you're not aware of them, they post short films under 15 minutes, typically under 5, in all types of genres. It's a great way to get a large number of people to see your work. We should know in about a month whether they accepted any or not. Then we'll try another 5. If we get any in I wanted to space them out a little bit so we can hopefully keep new stuff coming into them.

The first 5 sketches are: Annoya, Cain, American Doctor Online, Save Me, and Dresses.

True or False Festival Info

True or False has been submitted to the Durango Independent Film Festival! They will announce what shorts got into it around January 20, 2006.

Zombies!

After months of a Zombie movie idea of mine was laying dormant, I finally pulled out the outline and have been working on getting the first draft of my first horror movie feature completed. It's about 87 pages and I tried to establish the characters a little bit so there's some emotional attachment when they are eaten by the zombies. It was a lot of fun to work on.

So now that I have gotten that out of my system I have several projects in various stages of development. I'm continuing to send out tapes to festivals, I have a few shorts that I'm working on, and as always we're continuing on with our sketch comedy for Just Watch It.

The Duel Shoot

We finished principle photography on a new sketch called, "The Duel." It's about, get ready for it, a Duel! A duel to the end over the love of a woman (what else?). It was a fun but grueling shoot up in Longmont, in a park, in the pouring rain. The weather added a nice effect to it, but just a wet mess to shoot in. We used a couple of actors whom we haven't used before so that was fun and different. The sketch will be added to Just Watch It Episode 4.

New Festival Submission for True or False

In an effort to get this short that so many people have put in a lot of energy and creativity into seen, I'm trying one more round of festival submissions. I'm going to try for 4 or 5 smaller, more intimate festivals this time. The first one is the Delray Beach Film Festival in Florida. They will announce what shorts got in around January 16, 2006.
