âWe are the new wave, we are the avant garde, we are the frontlines and we are reinventing the wheelâ. I hope these words donât go in vain.
After âThey Were Buying Us Drinksâ @twbud.shortfilm earned the âBest Editingâ award @backlight.filmfestival I was left grateful. Full of faith and hope for the future of filmmaking, alongside the arts as a whole. This award is proof that something is getting done right. That maybe it seems like a very individual milestone, but it would have not been possible without the collaboration of all the people involved.
Of you all, I am thankfulâŚ
We are the blood that runs through filmmaking and Iâm proud of all of you. All of you who keep creating and trying despite what anyone says.
I set up a hotline and collected voicemails from people asked to âleave a message for the first person who comes to mind.â I filmed nights out on a camcorder and layered the message collage over it. thank you to everyone who called
