Idaho Panhandle Invites Dancing Ground

Yes, that's right, our second Idaho film festival! Do you suppose that's a record? Seriously, though, this sounds like a little gem of a festival in lovely Sandpoint, Idaho, August 24-26. If you are in the area, it should be a fun time.

IFP Market selects Dancing Ground

I am absolutely thrilled to announce that Dancing Ground has been selected to participate in the Emerging Narrative Short section of the IFP Market in New York this coming September. It's a tremendous honor to be chosen one of ten promising filmmakers to bring a short to the event and I can't wait.

Next stop: Palm Springs

Book your tickets. Grab your sunscreen. Dancing Ground has been selected to play the Palm Springs International Short Film Festival sometime between August 24 and 30. I'll let you know when they set the programming schedule. This is a very exciting development, and I can't wait to make the trip!

Dancing Ground officially part of True West Cinema

I'm excited to announce Dancing Ground will play close to home. The Boise, Idaho-based True West Cinema Festival will screen Dancing Ground between August 10 and 13. My friend and fellow filmmaker Hope Dickson Leach (who made the wonderful film The Dawn Chorus, and whose website I completely ripped off) found this festival and told me about it. They haven't put together the schedule yet, but check their website. It should be coming soon.

Flatland Film Festival & awards

We're going to Lubbock, Texas. Well, the movie is, anyway. Dancing Ground has been selected to the Flatland Film Festival, August 10-12. So if you're going to be in or around Lubbock the second week of August, drop by the Louise H. Underwood Center for the Arts. According to the website, we've won an award, although they're not saying which one. I'll update you when I know more.

Dancing Ground to play Woods Hole

We've been accepted to our first post-Columbia film festival: Woods Hole Film Festival on Cape Cod, Massachussettes. Dancing Ground will screen at the 3pm program on the last day of the festival, August 5th.
