The Festivals Continue




While planning out the trip to Colorado Springs at the end of April to represent Between Night at the 2009 Indie Spirit Film Festival, I received some good news. Between Night will be playing at the Northwest Projections Film Festival in Bellingham, Washington. The film has come full circle, as this was where it was filmed. The festival goes from April 17-19th. I will update when the program is released. I will be there to represent the film, as well. 

In other news, our documentary on the 2009 World Beard and Moustache Competition in Anchorage, Alaska is developing nicely. Travel arrangements are set and we are making contacts with this year's competitors. 

As always - stay tuned!
