The Wavecrest Award Nominations are posted
Here they are.
These are the films and performers who
have demonstrated an edge over this years competition and we have
nominated for Wavecrest Awards.
First of all, we must salute this years
Triple Threat Film Maker. We take great pride in watching every film
submitted for excellence in several aspects of film making that include
acting, writing and directing and sometimes everything else that goes
into making a film. While several films met the qualifications for this
award only one pushed the envelope so far that it could not be
overlooked.
This year we are happy to present the
Wavecrest Award for Best Triple Threat Film Maker to Luke Matheny for
his short film God Of Love.
Congratulations, Luke, on this achievement
and on your Academy Award for Best Live Action Short Film. We are proud
to add you to our roster.
Nominees.
159 films were submitted to this year’s competition.
We are screening 54 of them. Upon the
heels of his Oscar win and notification of the Triple Threat Award, Luke
Matheny humbly and graciously withdrew from further competition this
year, leaving our judges with even tougher decisions to make about this
years official selections.
Here are the 2011 Wavecrest Award contenders.
Congratulations to all nominees!
