I’ve just returned from the L.A. Comedy Shorts Film Festival and I thought I’d give you a quick update on how it all went.
(A little copy/paste…) L.A. Comedy Shorts Film Festival is currently the largest comedy film festival in the United States. LACS is a four-day, non-stop celebration of comedic short films that was recently named one of Moviemaker Magazine's "25 Festivals Worth the Entry Fee" and honored as one of the "Top Ten Film Festivals in the U.S.”.
Having been there, I buy all of that. It was a great festival, well run, well attended, quality selections and the organisers were all incredible – BFF-standard. Unreal for real.
There were about 80 short films in the festival and ‘The Mind Job’ played in the last session, so I'm guessing the programmed it from good to awesome. I’m happy to report the film was very well received. Many people came up to me after the screening and raved about it which was great, kind of why you do this whole film-making thing. There was even a bit of a buzz around the film after it screened and some who missed it told me they kept hearing people talking about it, much to their frustration.
We were also listed in the ‘L.A. Weekly’ as one of the ‘
Ten films you must see from the festival’ and NBC used a still from ‘The Mind Job’ in their
coverage of the festival.
So, all in all, a great festival. A success. I am now back in Sydney, catching up on the sleep I didn’t have over there.
Stay tuned for my next endeavours…
