Life After the 48 Hour Film

July and August proved to be wonderful times for Writers of the Storm. We entered the 48 Hour film project, and even though we encountered technical problems along the way, we finished a film that now we can be proud of.

"Grandpa's Magic Secrets Revealed" was our mockumentary, and we will be posting this film on our website soon.

Writers at SXSW

I recently had the extreme luck of attending SXSW, where I attended a number of panels relating to indie film making and how it relates to the web as a whole. Whether it was uploading your work to iFilm.com or even selling your work to IFC.
