Had a great time tonight with Danielle, her mother Jeannie and sidekick Gwen - as we took in a Sarasota Film Festival press/cocktail party event at the SRQ Yacht Club. There I was with 3 drop-dead beautiful women playing the role of Film Producer. Danielle's mom looks like her 19 year old daughter and naturally passes as her sister; and Gwen looks like a Hollywood starlet...so yeah...I played 'Cool Hand Luke' tonight as we breezed through the gathering and posed for the paparazzi. All of us were taken with the number of people who went out of their way to say hello and tell us how much they loved Beautiful Noise. It happened all night long. There's no doubt about it...we have a sleeper hit on our hands backed up by a Soundtrack Album that will sooner or later become a huge seller in its own right...
Investors are jumping on the BN bandwagon this week and we're off to a great start in raising the marketing budget we need to take the movie 'round the world on the international film festival circuit.
The big news of the day was finding out we are under strong consideration to showcase at the Galway, Ireland International Film Festival in July. How great would that be to make our European Premiere at that fantastic festival?
The Sarasota Film Festival is a blast. Everyone on the Suncoast should support this terrific event. I plan to enter at least one feature film a year in the SFF from now on...
