Level Up finished its festival run for the season at the 9th Annual Miami Short Film Festival, where we were one of five shorts nominated for Best Narrative. Out of more than 500 entries from 27 countries, I was proud to have been in such good company!
The winning film, LASTRAIN, was was a beautiful film and it was a joy to discuss its development with the writer and star, Raul Alvarez.
The festival screening was held in a first class theater, packed full with an appreciative audience and followed with a thoughtful Q&A session.
I was also invited to sit on a panel at the festival with a group of extremely talented directors, discussing the art of short film.
Filmmakers Chris Olsen (Director: “Fancy”), Jeffery Ruggles (Director: “Queens Day”), Greg Koorhan (Director: “Level Up”) & Youssef Marzin (Director: “Ograh El Quahira”) discuss the art of the short film at Coral Gables BOOKS & BOOKS.
