Elliot Kane ends 5 years of our CMF’ing lives

Saturday, July 2nd, 2011

Last weekend we returned from our trip to Hollywood California, where we saw Elliot Kane play at the Campus Movie Fest International Grand Finale. There were a lot of interesting little flicks out there, and everyone had a great time! Though our film did not succeed in any of its nominations, we couldn’t be happier with the turn out. We also want to send our warmest thanks to CMF and its employment, who are by far the most exceptional people in showbiz! David, Dan, Vijay, Megan, Abe “Abey Baby”, Michael “Mikey”, Evan, and many many more!  Thanks for 5 great years, everyone.

If any of you are in college and interested in film, we highly recommend participating in this festival! It’s a wonderful experience, and is a great resource for up-and-comers like ourselves. Plus, these gents do a real bang up job! Free equipment and prizes, WOW!

We’ve entered CMF 5 years in a row, and every time we’ve managed to get to the finale. We feel this is an accomplishment for us, and if you enter the festival you’ll see how much love and hard work goes into creating a short in one week. Please consider participating, and learn as much as possible from the experience. It surely helped us grow as filmmakers, as well as people. Thanks again guys! We’ll never, ever, forget you.

This is quite possibly our final entry for Campus Movie Fest 2010.

Big thanks to everyone involved! Special thanks to Steve Campos from Fangamer for doing the special effects.

We managed to win Best Picture at SJSU, which entitled us to an ipod, final cut studio 3, and admission to the international grand finale in spring 2011. So CMF is going very well for us this year! Thanks y’all!

Vigorade CMF update & new shorts!

Friday, January 29th, 2010
Hello world! I just realized we never posted the results from the CMF regionals this year. So down to brass tacks.
We didn’t win anything; however, we were part of the top 16, so that means we’ll be going to the international finale again this summer!
Speaking of the CMF international finale: Here are two old movies, one of which was made during our trip to Los Angeles last year for CMF.
