Almost in Love
Posted in Other, tagged short film, student film on April 23, 2008| 1 Comment »
So, over the last week, I’ve been working on a short film for a contest called Campus Movie Fest, and with the help of a bunch of law school friends, finished a 5 minute short film. I know all of you desperately want to see it.
I’ve put it below, but you can also find it at:
http://www.ourstage.com/video/channel/66-cmf/WSCGVHVZMSQB-almost-in-love
If you register at http://www.ourstage.com/go/cmf you can “judge” movies — they give you two of the movies and you pick which one is better (choose Judge, then Videos then the CMF channel). If you judge enough eventually you’ll be able to judge ours, whenever it randomly pops up.
So, check it out, and let me know what you think, and forward it to and share it with whoever may be interested. New blog posts start next Monday.

I got a little behind schedule, but this is the last baseball post. Regular content will resume tomorrow with a review of the award winning documentary Manda Bala.

Awards:
AL MVP: David Ortiz
NL MVP: David Wright
AL Cy Young: Roy Halladay
NL Cy Young: Johan Santana
AL ROY: Jacoby Ellsbury (would have been Evan Longoria had he made the team)
NL ROY: Kosuke Fukudome

New York Yankees over Anaheim Angels in 4 games
