    I hate to leave a poor review, but... while it was nice to win an award, the screening for my film was very poorly run. Technically speaking, the playback was lagging, so the projectionist had to start over using our screener link. Then the audio sounded like it was coming through a tin can.
    There was little to no communication beforehand on what to expect when we arrived at the screening. The Q and A was rushed and insincere.
    Not a great time. I hope you folks get more of a crew to help you out, so you can avoid situations like this in the future. =/

    Great festival, very good communication. Unfortunately, I was not able to attend, but I was very impressed with how well organized it was. I appreciated their film ticket revenue-sharing method -- I never encountered that with any other festival, I think it's a great idea.
