New Team Splash Flick: "Big Trouble Oakwood Rd."

  This past Friday 4/29/11 TeamSplash Productions entered FilmRacing.com's 24 Hour Film Race! Time flies, not 4 years ago TeamSplash  released "Yadhtrib" with new friend and film-maker Bernard "B.J." Jackson joining the crew. Since then, TeamSplash Productions has made four films for FilmRacing.com, two films for the National Film Challenge and one for FilmRacing's Grand Prix, that is until "Big Trouble Oakwood Rd." was finished.

   Last night was the screening for "Big Trouble Oakwood Rd." and I can say from experience the screening was awesome. So many good films and the event was held at the Galapagos Art Space in Brooklyn, which has a very cool atmosphere for events like this. Our film was close to the end number 17 of 20 films, when it came on the big screen we were a little nervous at how people would react to it. As the movie progressed it seemed that the audience was really getting into it, and just at the credits began to roll the audience erupted with laughter! It was definitely an awesome feeling.

  After the screening Charlie Weissman of FilmRacing asked all the film makers to come up and do a little Q & A session. After the Q & A Charlie announced the Audience favorite award and low and behold TeamSplash Productions won!! TeamSplash Productions graciously accepted the award and gave a slightly intoxicated speech, so what else is new, to a room filled with film makers from all over the tri-state area.

 After the event people approached us to talk shop ans swap stories. This year is off to a great start!
