BEST OF FESTIVAL: THE WIDOW'S MIGHT

Well it's finally over! The Academy was incredible with sessions about Sci-Fi From a Biblical Worldview, Behind the Scenes of Fireproof, Color Correction, Stunts and Violence in Films, All About the RED Camera and of course the theological sessions.

The Festival was also really good this year with a overall improvement in the technical quality of the films in the competition! Even though my trailer, along Pendragon, didn't win anything it was still an enjoyable festival. There are a good number of the films available for download at Behemoth.com. Several of my favorite films were Pendragon, Fireproof, The Widow's Might, Dad the Hero, Dialtone, A Collection of Fortunate Happenings, Council's Commission and Wars of Humanity III.
