Come See Us At CIFF and AIFVF

The Cleveland International Film Festival, and the Athens International Film & Video Festival. Both pose awards within the short film category that can allow eligibility for the Academy Awards. Once accepted, your film competes with the best made in the entire world. Small crew, zero dollars, almost no marketing, yet Emily and I with these amazing directors and small but very talented crews. Are competing with large budget, large scale productions, and entire production studios as students. Now with eight years of consistent work, a degree, plus many accolades on the belt; I can say with confidence no matter what odds we'll perform.
