Zack Wilson - GrandPrize Winner of Ithaca College CellFlix Cell Phone Fest

On behalf of the Celtx community, the Team would like to extend a big Congrats to Celtx alumnus, Zack Wilson, for his recent win in Ithaca College's 2nd Annual CellFlix Festival. Zack impressed the judges so much with his piece "Assisted Living" (view below) that they awarded him the $5,000.00 Grand Prize! In 30-seconds, Wilson's film tenderly relays the message to "Get out and live your life". THe piece was written with Celtx and shot on a cell phone, and while that all may sound simple enough, he actually shot 6 cuts, so it took him about 90 minutes to set up and shoot, and about 10 hours to edit.

Zack's production group, negativeZERO Films just finished another short film titled "Grief Assurance" in which Celtx was used for all of the pre-production including organizing cast and crew. They are now looking to distribute on the Internet, ... so if you know anybody, point them that-a-way and leave a message.

Zack is a senior TV-Radio major at Ithaca College's Roy H. Park School of Communications and about to graduate any minute now, so I'm sure this CellFlix win is a bit of icing on that graduation cake!

Hopefully we'll be seeing much more from this talented fellow.

All the best to you, Zack Wilson!
