I've been selected

My short film “Do Not Bend” has been selected for the Branchage Short film surgery.

I received an email this morning saying that it had been selected, and i, at first was a little shocked to read it, i had to read it again to make sure what i was reading was actually in front of me, i read they Wordpress blog and it said they were part of the London Short Film Festival, and again i asked, why was it selected.

I shot it in about 20 minutes and the edit took me about 4 hours, it was quick and simple, and if i’m honest, lazy, there are things about it i would rather shot again, but i didn’t think it would get selected, it was just an internet film, not meant to be seen by an audience, let alone critics, The Panel Guests for this Surgery are confirmed as Hannah Patterson (film critic/journalist) and Ben Blaine and Michael Pearce (short film makers). Are they gonna rip me a new one, laugh at me, or was it selected because they liked it?

Anyway, Wednesday 13th, next week, i’ll be off to find out i guess, I’ll be taking my camera to record the event.
