When our production plans for the year were squashed, we got creative and decided to make some silly shorts while in quarantine starring our pets (and sometimes people). See the 4 episodes of Feline Fables below. And stay tuned because we may have more in the works!
Short Films
We released two shorts online this year! "The Gaze" wrapped up its festival run and premiered via ALTER's youtube & facebook. "Affliction" hit the festival circuit and had a great virtual run. It earned 7 award nominations and won Best Screenplay and the Social Awareness Award at Revolution Me Film Festival, as well as receiving runner-up for Best Director and Best Drama at Horrible Imaginings Film Festival.
Our 7th Annual Best of Fest at IndieWorks was meant to be held in a theater in April, but we had to pivot to a virtual format. We're proud of how we pulled it off under the unexpected circumstances and short notice. While we couldn't start our new season as planned in June and have had the series on hiatus since then, we have continued amplifying our local peers by creating social media playlists of alumni films. First there was our 6 weeks of thematic #QuarantineQuickFlicks, and then #PrideInside, #IndieFireWorks and eventually #SpooktoberShorts.
We hope to be able to safely bring the series back by Fall 2021.
