Media (PA) Arts Council Film Festival

I had the pleasure of attending the Media (PA) Arts Council Film Festival last February, and greatly enjoyed it: it's a low-key festival in the Philadelphia area that draws a strong local following. I hope to be back there this coming February with Foreclosed - my new short that features GIAA actors Carlo Fiorletta, Julie Kilzer, Troy Dane, and Alyson Linefsky.

The festival takes place February 26 and 27 in Media, PA. They're accepting late entries up until Jan 15 - it's a nice place to get an appreciative audience for your movie (they accept shorts from 5 minutes to 40 minutes, and features 40 to 90 minutes). You can see their call for entries at

www.mediaartscouncil.org

For further information, you can e-mail Festival Director Tamme Hoey at
