“Quite Contrary” screening with DC Shorts!

Announcement time, folks!

“Quite Contrary” has been picked up for screening as part of this year’s DC Shorts Film Festival. Our film will be screening at the Landmark E Street Cinema as part of Screening 2, on Friday, September 15 at 4:00 pm. Come on, you know you’re just looking for an excuse to leave work early on a Friday afternoon...

There’s also an opening party Thursday night at Drinx from 9:00 to 11:00 (open to all ticketholders), where you’ll have a chance to meet and greet many of the filmmakers from around the country who have films screening. And if you get a chance, take a look at the rest of the screenings as well — there are a lot of really good shorts being shown (a couple of personal favorites are “Jesus Beer” and WIT’s “Multiverse,” both screening Friday night at 10:00).

Tickets will go on sale mid-August, but — as filmmakers — we should be getting a day’s advance notice over the public at large, so we’ll be sure to send out a group message then (so pay attention).

Congratulations to the entire creative and technical team for “Quite Contrary,” and I can’t wait to see the audience’s reaction.

P.S.: You may have noticed that our website has been down for some time. Alas, this isn’t because of anything related to the long-developing redesign, but something much more mundane. We’ve been having some billing problems with the host and are trying to resolve them — as soon as we get it back up and running, we’ll let you know. We want to make sure everything’s hunky-dory before the big show.

48 Hour Film Project Post Coverage

Thought some of you might be interested in seeing this — one of the teams in this year’s 48 Hour Film Project was the subject of an article in this week’s Washington Post Magazine.

Sure, it’s no Burke/Springfield/Fairfax Station Times, but it’s something, anyway.
