In early May we made a 5 minute short for a local film festival, and I'm happy to report that it has been selected!!! It'll play in the Li'l Film Fest 10 this Saturday along with 12 other entries. This "little" fest is put on by Live from Memphis. We were also granted automatic submission to the Indie Memphis Film Fest that is held every October. Live from Memphis holds the Li'l Fest every quarter with a required theme and a time limit of 5 minutes. This fest's theme is 'family'.

"Sunday" was put together in about a week and was filmed over a rainy weekend. It was edited and scored within a few hours. We definitely beat our editing time from "Don't Look in the Fridge". While awards will be given at the fest, I'm just thrilled to be a part of the event and to see our movie played on the big screen!

"Sunday"
directed by: Val Overstreet
written by: Dolan Mills

Thanks for asking! Unfortunately, I can't post it online yet. Gotta wait till its fest run is over. Sad

I'll be sure to give an update after the show. I'm excited. I've never been a part of anything like this before. I've been to this event, but never like this. I'll be the geek in the audience with the goofy smile. Tongue

Thanks, Jessica! And I will.

Due to inclement weather in Memphis last Friday, the festival was postponed. The art museum where the fest is held has been without power since Friday. It's being rescheduled, so I'll give an update once it's happened!

I am still in awe of seeing our movie played in front of an audience. We didn't win anything, but I thought we got a good audience reaction and a great applause. That's better than any award. I'm happy. Smile

Makes me wish I had the ability to create a film, rather than write. Good show Val. Let us know when we can see it too. Smile
