THRILLED! ALMA - stop-motion feature script - is a 2024 FINALIST Rhode Island International Film Festival! ❤️😊
"This year's Rhode Island International Film Festival Screenplay Competition received 468 entries. From these, 65 scripts have been selected as Finalists by our international team of adjudicators. After one last review, we will select the Award Winners with an announcement coming on October 28th."
Crossing fingers! But elated that we got that far already. 😊
A huge thank you goes to my good friend and mentor extraordinaire Joe Bratcher who helped me bring my vision and ALMA story to life. Couldn't have done it without you, Joe! ❤️
