The Ozark Foothills Film Fest has worked hard to develop a new Indie Film Initiative and my feature film has been selected as 1 of 3 award recipients in the state!
I am thrilled, honored, and ready to make Arkansas proud.
Congratulations to the other 2 award recipients!
Taylor Feltner “Man Shot Dead” Documentary
Brent Renaud “My Brother’s Heart” Documentary
I attended the Ozarks Foothills Film Fest this past weekend and had to rave about it.
Not only did I get to see some great films (local, short, feature, documentary, animation, you name it!) I also participated in a screenwriting workshop taught by indie writer/director Gordy Hoffman. Gordy is a smart talented guy (go watch his movie Love Liza and you’ll see what I mean) and I left the workshop ready to attack my script & ready to hammer out the kinks in my 3rd draft.
I talked to A LOT of people about 45 RPM. Everyone is eager to see more and a few more filmmaking hands have offered their skills to the production. Very encouraging stuff!
Highlight of the festival had to be watching Fritz Lang’s restored classic Metropolis with the world-renowned Alloy Orchestra performing live. Not only is the film a favorite of mine but the energy and creativity of the live soundtrack was nothing short of transcendent.

Congratulations to Bob & Judy Pest, founders and directors of the Ozark Foothills Film Fest, for hosting the only festival of its kind in Arkansas for 10 years running!
