Congrats to Film Connection grad
Jacob Sizemore and the cast and crew of “The Porcelains” on winning The 2019 Nacogdoches Film Festival, even though they didn’t even know it, at first! Jacob explains:
“[After submitting to the festival] when the first due date…[came and] I never got an email, I assumed it was because we didn’t get in and they might not have bothered to email us back. I informed my team and we shrugged it off and went on with our lives.
About 3 days later however I got an email from the festival with the title CONGRATULATIONS…Not only did we get accepted into the festival in Nacogdoches but we were the official short film winners and our film will play along side other feature films as the main event of the night…
This may not be a big event for some people, but for us younger up-and-coming filmmakers, to work so hard on a film and to put your heart and soul into a project, get it made, and to have someone confirm that you did a good job, is unbelievably gratifying.”
We’ll keep you updated on Jacob’s progress!
