If you like, here's some pics from the Gen Art web site. As you can see, everything was very fancy - except me. At least I was savvy enough to buy a new shirt earlier in the day - one with a collar (This is sadly true, the shirt in those pictures is about 4 hours old. My new fancy shirt). One day I promise to go shopping and get clothes like a real grown up. The girl in the pink dress is Alia Shawkat from 'Arrested Development' (which I hope everyone saw - if not, get over to NetFlix, it was a wonderful show). She is very charming in 'Bart Got A Room' and turns out she's from Palm Springs, my home town. And I thought I knew everyone from Palm Springs...
Winner of the GRAND JURY AWARD at GEN ART!
As I've always said, short films will make you rich. Well maybe not, but the five grand that came with the Grand Jury Award at Gen Art was a sweet suprise. And looks like we followed up with the Audience Award for Best Short there too! What an amazing event - we played in a packed 800 seat theatre as the only short of the evening (before the delightful feature film 'Bart Got a Room') then off to a party where there were Vodka drinks named after the film (a couple 'Goldfish Bowls' did the trick). That's an actual picture of the theatre as people were filling in. So basically the whole thing kicked ass.
