    I want to personally thank Medusa Film Awards for their overall communication, support, and hospitality throughout this film festival. I appreciate the honor of having my newest film, Rose Petals, winning Best Animation. I couldn't recommend them enough to fellow filmmakers out there!

    What an incredible experience! Our film The Before was not only selected for the Medusa Film Festival but also took home the award for Best Short! Huge thanks to the amazing festival team—everyone was so kind and supportive. I’m beyond grateful and will definitely be submitting future projects!

    Working with this film festival was a truly memorable experience. The team’s professionalism and expertise were evident from the very beginning. They treated us—and our film—with genuine respect, making us feel that our work and our presence really mattered. It was clear they understood the commitment and passion that went into our project, and their attention to detail was exceptional. Thanks to their dedication, we felt like A-list filmmakers every step of the way. On behalf of myself and my team, thank you for making us feel so welcome and for delivering such an outstanding experience.
