Going to France!
Composer Gabriel Dharmoo and I just received funding to present Refractions in the Official Short Film Competition at the Festival International du Film d’Aubagne in France this March!
As I mentioned in an earlier post, this festival is about music and video collaborations, so both Gabriel and I have a chance at winning various awards, from Best Original Score, Audience Choice Award, to Best Experimental Film. But besides that, it will be a great experience to make connections with other filmmakers and composers.
Funding is through SODEC and the Office Franco Québécois pour la Jeunesse (OFQJ). Below is a quirky little animation video introducing the festival.
**Conseil des arts et des lettres du Québec has also awarded me a travel grant to cover the remainder of the costs.
