    We were honoured to have our short film A Girl Called Elvis selected for this festival! Thanks to Nathan and Shelli. I wish that I couldn't attend in person, but I hope to in future.

    From Christopher R. Owens, President, CESO Enterprises, Inc. crowens@cesony.com:

    On behalf of CESO ENTERPRISES, INC., Alyssa Dann, Chris Oledude, and all of our production participants, I would like to compliment the organizers and operators of the Woodstock Museum Film Festival. When we created our first music video (which was long enough to be a short film), we knew nothing about film festivals. With the help of FilmFreeway, we started researching. The categories were good. Everyone who contacted us on behalf of this festival was helpful. The submissions looked excellent.

    It was indeed exciting to discover this new world and to be so warmly welcomed by the inhabitants! To have GEORGE FLOYD: SAY THEIR NAMES selected for inclusion was an honor in and of itself.

    We were happy to “get the word out” and continue motivating people worldwide to consider the injustices embedded within our nation’s criminal justice system. After all, situations where a powerful segment of the population uses its law enforcement apparatus to abuse and oppress other segments of the population are recognizable in and common too many societies.
    We recommend submitting your work and we certainly intend to participate again in the future.

    Peace and stay safe!

    We are delighted to host events and express delight knowing your friends and relatives felt comfortable and happy. There is much we are not in control of like the weather. We do our best in the hospitality, entertainment and good, homemade food area. We do choose films that are remarkable. Yours was one of them. Thank you.

    I really liked the vibe of the Woodstock Museum festival. It was like the way festivals used to be - where they contact you personally. I wish I could have attended, but am nonetheless honored to have my film "PeaceTime: A Royal Frog" be part of it.

    It was a pleasure to show your meditation animation. I especially loved it in the evening, under the stars widest screen showing. It was huge and loved by the adults like you said, for all ages.

    Cute venue, the organizers are very nice and communication was good. Very few people showed up for the screening but I guess COVID is still a deterrent. Good Q+A after the screening.
