S1
Accolades and Laurels

As part of the development of the screenplay we entered in several contests and festivals, focusing on those that gave feedback with the intent of using the response to fine tune the script. The notes were overall positive but give points on areas that needed attention. Revised, then submitted to others, focusing primarily on festivals that separated out genre of comedy.

Festivals

We attended the Toronto Film Fesitval, along with our lawyer, Corky Kessler, where we met with many other filmmakers. This was our official launch. The response to the story, title, logline and one sheet were excellent.

Sundance

We attended Sundance, again with Corky, where we were entered in a pitch contest sponsored by the Utah Film Commission. We had 5 minutes, including questions from the panel. We took second place, which included a $500 prize. At the party afterward, we were told by some of the panel we actually tied for first, but they were not in a position to do "tied winners."
