Benefit Screening in Waco

Our FIRST OFFICIAL Scholarship benefit screening will be in Waco this Saturday (01/31/09) benefitting the Fellowship of Christian Athletes and the Six Man, Texas Scholarship Fund.  The screening is at the WISD Playhouse Theater at 201 N. Jack Kultgen Expressway, Waco, TX, 76704.  It is at 12:30 pm this Saturday (Super-Bowl Saturday).  A little reality check before the hype of the Super bowl.

Please attend and show your support for the Six Man community.  There will be tee shirts for sale as well and we will probably give away a DVD or two of the film.  There will also be a few surprise guests.  There are no lawns to mow this time of year so drop by for a good time and a worthy cause!     

NEXT PREMIERE!

WE ARE HAPPY to announce that our next Premiere of the film will be at the Gloria Film Festival (http://www.gloriafilmfest.org/) on August 2nd at 4:30 pm. We are so happy to have a second premiere within a few months of the World Premiere at AFI Dallas. Go to the Gloria Film Festival website and check it out or make a comment if you have seen the film. AND, if you are anywhere in the Salt Lake City area that weekend PLEEEEEZE attend the screening and cheer loudly. Maybe we will throw out footballs again!!

WE'RE GUSHING

OUR WORLD PREMIERE at AFI Dallas was a great experience. Not only did we have two packed screenings (the first one completely sold out) but we were treated wonderfully by everyone in Dallas from the volunteers to the staff to other fans and filmmakers we met. We made some contacts that might be helpful for the film and are starting to follow up on those. We did as much shameless promotion as possible for Six Man, Texas and ended up getting rid of almost all of our posters (100) and postcards (500). We also had a great time throwing out footballs during both Q&As (got rid of 100 of those) and met with a lot of people who drove many miles from surrounding Six Man communities to Dallas just for our premiere. Thanks so much to everyone from Six Man communities who attended. All in all it was a wonderful time!

And I cannot say enough about AFI Dallas, it is well-run and quite professional with very helpful and friendly volunteers. Target and Victory Park have gone out of their way to support a festival whose stature and importance can only grow in the festival community. I believe AFI Dallas will take its place alongside SXSW and Austin Film Festival as the best of Texas.

As I said, we're gushing.......
