SOLMI

A few months ago we entered Apple’s Insomnia Film Festival, a 24-hour race open to students across the country. Our entry was Superhero, written by Brian and starring himself, David Simpson, and Adam Viademonte. It’s quickly become our most popular show to date.

We first showed it publicly (that is, outside of the podcast) at February’s Film Slam here in Orlando. We ended up taking third place, which we were really excited about. Afterwards we were approached about entering our video into the Indie Film Jam, which is part of the Florida Music Festival. The Jam is more of a real film competition than the Film Slams, which are there to give an outlet for filmmakers in the area.

So as much fun as it is to enter the Film Slams, it’s going to be even more fun being in the Film Jam.

By entering the Film Jam, it looks like we’ll be eligible for a couple of awards. These include Best in Fest, Special Jury Award, and the Audience award. I’m sure there’s going to be some pretty stiff competition but it’s going to be a lot of fun going head to head with other filmmakers in the area. If you’d like to show us some support (and if you’re in the Orlando area) the festival is running between May 14th and 17th.

I’m sure we’ll have more specific information as the date approaches. We just wanted to give you guys a heads up and let you know how excited we are about this.
