This Section of the web page is specific for
International film festival
​Competitions

Washington Dc

What are we building?

Once upon a time in Dallas TX I had a group of hard working students that built a film for competition. They unfortunately did not make it into the UIL Young filmakers contest in Texas.

Not to be disheartened I started looking for other places for these students to compete. I found an international film festival in Athens Greece. We entered it and got accepted.

We were on cloud nine!!!!
But then we discovered that our district could care less... No one came along of my students to help us attend the festival and so their film played and we were not there to see it. 

I am in a new district now in a completely different state.

This is the most supportive district that I have ever been a part of.
It is my hope that we make into an international film festival once again and this time we can actually be able to be a part of it in person!!!


A little bit of my Philosophy to life

A winning entry is not just about the model or good animation!!! 
If you get nothing else from this page please get this.
​

A winning entry is an absolute feast for the eyes and includes EVERYTHING!!!!
​

A winning entry has a beautiful Model, Textures, Lighting, Rendering, Backdrop, and Environment for everything to live in. 
DO NOT JUST GIVE THE CLIENT ONLY WHAT THEY ASK FOR!!!!! 

If you want to Win, Succeed in life, Get HIRED, Stay Employed, be Promoted, 
always give them MORE THAN WHAT THEY ASK FOR!!!!


Lazy people are EVERYWHERE!!!
​

Successful people push past them to get things accomplished...
I come from Texas and we have a saying
"Go BIG or go home"
This web site is for those that want to win and succeed when no one else is.
If that is you... WELCOME!
Let's get to work.
These are the festivals that we are shooting for!!!
