Our short film @onceethereal_shortfilm has been selected for another festival - @sydfest - and will have its Sydney Premiere on November 29th!
I’m incredibly proud of what this film has achieved, and again would love to thank all who were involved and contributed!
Festival Selections & Awards so far:
• Simply Shorts - Winner: Best Live Action Short Film
• Melbourne CINEVERSE Film Festival - Winner: Best Cinematography @darcymichell_ , Nominated: Best Short Film & Best Actor @majella.davis
• SydFest Independent Film Festival - Official Selection
What began as a small idea at the end of 2022 has grown into something that’s shaped the last few years of my life. Once our festival run wraps up, we’ll be releasing the film publicly online at the end of the year!
@macyjjacobs turned 18 last week. We filmed this 4 years ago 😯 and I finally decided to do something with the footage! Here’s the result.
