'Beleive It Or Not'.... The 7th Nickel Independent Film Festival is right around the corner! - WoHoo!
This popular, homegrown, independent film and video fest is created by filmmakers for filmmakers and it's one that we at Celtx are proud to sponsor. It gives Newfoundlanders and Labradoreans the opportunity to see quality films local movie-goers may never have otherwise seen, and it gives independent and emerging filmmakers a chance to premiere their work to enthusiastic audiences. Submissions from filmmakers of all kinds are judged by industry professionals, and awards are presented at a reception and gala at the end of the festival.
So if you find yourself in St. John's Newfoundland from June 19-23, 2007, grab some buddies and some festival passes, enjoy some awesome screenings, and participate in some industry related workshops (btw - I hear the Celtx workshop with Michelle Jackson is a real winner! See details below;)
And be sure to stick around for the closing gala at The Last Drop to see who will win the first $500.00 Celtx Award for Best Local Film!! Lots of laughs, fun, suspense and intrigue to be experienced by all. So don't miss it!...
