GRFF Info.

Hello Readers.

Just wanted to provide you with all the information you’ll need regarding the upcoming Grand River Film Festival and how you can see 3x – which was shortlisted for the GRFF Shortcuts Competition.

There will be 2 screenings of all 6 shorts, including 3x. They will both be on Saturday, October 25th.

The first is being held held at the Children’s Museum in downtown Kitchener and starts at 3.30 PM.

The second being held at the School of Architecture in downtown Cambridge and starts at 5.30 PM.

Both screenings are on a “Pay-what-you-can” basis, so please do come out, empty your change purses, and enjoy some fantastic films.

There will also be a showing of just 3x preceding the film Sasori at 5.30 at Wilfred Laurier — however this would require you to purchase a ticket to the screening of Sasori, which we don’t expect anyone to do. If you do however want to check it out, tickets can be purchased online, at the GRFF box-office (see their site for details), for 15-minutes prior to the film’s start time. Again, see site for details (it’s a little confusing).

Finally, we will be sure to keep everyone abreast of how we end up doing in the festival, along with anything exciting that happens a long the way.

If you have any questions be sure to check out the Grand River Film Festival website first, and if you can’t find it there let us know and we’ll do our best to fill you in.

We hope to see you there!

Short-Listed.

Woke up this morning to an e-mail from the folks at the Grand River Film Festival. Turns out that our film, 3x, has been selected for the top six in their Short Film Competition.

The winners will be announced at the Closing Gala, Sunday October 26, 2008 at 7:30PM, University of Waterloo, School of Architecture 7 Melville Street South, Cambridge, Ontario.

Of course I have no idea if we have a shot at winning (if everything was amateur films, or professional films) but just to be selected is a real honour! Especially since, judging by the application I had to fill out, the competition is catered more towards the professionals than amateurs.

For more information (including a list of all the shorts submitted) check out the GRFF website

Wish us luck!
