Super Short Film Festival over at last!

The mammoth 2005/06 Super Shorts Film festival is finally over, with so many films it made your eyes water. From premieres, to classics like Puleng, (Dir: Ali Taylor, Nexus Productions) and How to Cope with Death(Dir: Ignacio Ferreras, Tandem Films) the latter of which I received an effects animation credit on.

It was a rare opportunity for audiences across the country to see films absolutely free. A true people's festival, with lots of films you're unlikely to see anywhere else. I'd like to take my hat off to Andrew and the Festival Team for providing a great showcase to the short film format and new talent. The good news is (A) the 06/07 festival is on its way and (B) most films (including Vernic) will be staying online till at least the end of the year.
