Off to the Park at Animated Encounters
In November my film had its first festival screening at Animated Encounters in Bristol. I was working at the time so I could only visit for a few days but I managed to make the screening.
I have to say that watching your film on a cinema screen with an audience sitting behind you is a pretty strange experience, amazing but very strange. There was a high standard of films in the category. Including a couple of Aardman shorts and The BAFTA award wining film Mother of Many by Emma Lazenby. Two friends of mine Ben Cady And Paul Mcnulty who graduated from Newport with me had their amazing films shown aswell.
All in all it went very well and people seemed to really like the film.
I found out later on from some of the festival organiser that our category was one of the most popular of the festival.
