4. So here is what happened

There were 26 movie submissions in Greensboro
Of those there were 13 that received audience awards or others and we were one of them.

We got to see the 13 in an old timey Southern Art Deco gold encrusted theatre on the big screen. The director who gathered the crew had a fancy camera she paid thousands for and it did not work.
there I was with my Sony Alpha65 -handheld- to save the day, and I had never used it for movies!!!!!

And I was absolutely blown away. I felt like being in that group was such an honor, that next year, we will be rising to meet the others, I am psyched.
What we did win is best actor, he is very credentialed, a member of the screen actors Guild, we were proud to have him, and he did a great job

Onward and upward. For the first year I think it was absolutely marvelous to go up against these people who have done this year after year. They have gotten better and better. So will we.
