The Spotlight Nebraska Film Festival is coming!

They had a little press conference this week. Here's the blurb from KNEB:

Gering Native & Spouse To Premiere First Production At Midwest Film Festival
A Gering native and her husband will premiere their first production during the Midwest Theatre's 2006 Film Festival October 12th through the 14th. Steve and Andrea Mudd, formerly Andrea Myers, will be showing the political suspense film "Seclusion," filmed near Breckenridge, Colorado last summer.

The film is the story of a Congressman who has an affair with his beautiful advisor while renting a secluded cabin to work on a political speech, and what ensues when she disappears the next morning as the Congressman's wife and the assistant's husband arrive. Film Festival spokesperson Willa Kosman says she's excited about having the Mudd's first production premiere Saturday evening.

The Mudd's workshop Saturday, titled "Filmmaking on a Dime," will track the successes and tribulations of their film-making experience. The festival will also include workshops and presentations by special effects producer Helen Ostenberg Elswit, whose grandfather built the theatre, respected screenwriter Lew Hunter, and award winning photographer Joel Sartore. Premiere passes are being sold for $125 apiece. Individual event tickets will be sold at $5 apiece starting September 15th.

That's Festival Director Willa Cosman in the photo! Rock on, Willa.

my stupid blogger password so I have to email this one in...
