Okay, not so major, but the film I was in is now 3 for 3 in festival awards.
We took the audience award at the Broad Humor film festival (showcasing female directors) in Venice, CA a couple weeks ago, where we beat out all of the features and shorts presented for the award. We also grabbed an honorable mention at the LA Movie Awards (which, admittedly, is not first prize, but that was probably the most big-whoop festival we've been in yet, Samuel L. Jackson and one of the non-Alec Baldwins also won stuff). And we also nabbed an Indie Award of Merit from the Indiefest festival.
Next up are some pretty major festivals overseas (Ireland, UK, South Africa and a few others which escape me). In the fall, we should be doing several in the states again, and if there's any within driving distance I'll definitely try to make it for panel discussions and such. Feel free to come mock me if I end up in a theater near you.
I guess the bottom line is it looks like we'll at least go to DVD and PPV at some point at the very least. We're still hoping for at least some non-festival theatrical play, but so many stars have to align for that to happen for any non-studio film that we're not holding our breaths.
Oh, and there's a trailer finally! I don't get any face time, but I have some sweet VO action right toward the middle. You can check it out at the imdb page.
