I was ask to show my film in a local film fest. Not a contest, but part of a local art fest in Champaign, Illinois in April. After all the good reviews from the DVX fest it is pretty cool to have it shown with other local filmmakers. Here is part of the story. Also, I've put a link to "Almost Number One" that has the sound fixed and other things done to it.

"As part of the Boneyard Arts Festival (April 16–19), Pankoke hopes to reveal issue #3 of C-U Confidential as well as shed some light on local filmmakers’ output. “I’m going to program what will be Boneyard’s first local film show,“ he said. “It will probably have 12–15 pieces total, a combination of music videos, trailers, short films and featurettes.“ The venue will be Caffe Paradiso in Urbana on April 17, starting at 6 p.m., and complete details will be forthcoming as the festival approaches.
According to Pankoke, some films already selected to play Boneyard include Prelude, a High-Definition drama with supernatural overtones directed by Luke Boyce of Urbana’s Essence Films; Celeste Above, a relationship story about a reserved elderly gentleman and his landlady directed by New York filmmaker Johnny Robinson and filmed in C-U; The Transient, a horror-comedy featuring “vampire Abraham Lincoln” and directed by U of I alum Chris Lukeman; and Press Start: Bio Haphazard, a short-film sequel to the videogame action-comedy directed by Ed Glaser of Champaign’s Dark Maze Studios. Both Celeste Above and Bio Haphazard will be local premieres at the Paradiso show."
