Hello everyone and Happy Thursday! It's been FOREVER since we've said hi, but we've been cooking up an exciting 2024 and opening up new horizons for creators, filmmakers, and more.

With the strike pausing a significant amount of opportunities in 2023 and into 2024, we found new ways to create this Summer!

Many things to share with you - come check out our latest project, we are producing a night of critically accliamed one-acts at the Carriage Barn Arts Center in New Canaan, CT in August!

Keep checking back for more information and what's coming up on the streaming network this fall.

Thank you for the support! See you at our next show!

We know the rollercoaster of emotions that come with entering and leaving a film festival. It's like walking into a whirlwind 🌪 and coming out... well.....🤡

But on a serious note, we've noticed that many filmmakers trip up on the same hurdles when leaving a festival. So, we thought we'd drop some wisdom and share the '5 Mistakes Filmmakers Make When Leaving a Festival.' 🎬 👀

Here are five common mistakes filmmakers tend to make when leaving a film festival:

😶‍🌫️ Ghosting Festival Friends: Disappearing after the festival without a word? That's a rookie mistake! Festivals aren't just about films - they're about relationships. So, don't ghost your new contacts - follow up, keep the conversation alive, and build that network!

🙃 Ignoring the Critics' Chorus: Got feedback that stung a little? Don't tune out - tune in! Those whispers, murmurs, and critiques are gold mines for your next masterpiece. Listen, learn, and let your next film be the answer.

🥸 Sneaking Out of Social Events: Sneaking out right after your screening? Not so fast! The festival isn't over until the last hand is shaken, the last card is exchanged, and the last selfie is clicked. Embrace the chaos and keep networking.

😵‍💫 Social Media Blackout: If it's not on social media, did it even happen? Don't let your festival journey be the best-kept secret. Share those snaps, drop those tweets, and light up Instagram. Your followers want to see your festival life!

😅 Forgetting Your Manners: Forgot to say thank you? Yikes! A little gratitude can make a big splash. It's simple, it's quick, and it's the best way to end your festival journey on a high note. So, thank those who made your experience memorable!
