Unit 30 won a Claw award at the Terror Film Festival!!!

I just got back from the wonderful city of Philadelphia a few days ago after having attended the Terror Film Festival (run on sentences are fun!). As always, the amazing people of TFF put on another great festival. Unit 30 screened Friday night to a reception of 40 or so people, lots of laughs, great questions during the Q&A, etc....The awards ceremony was Saturday night and Unit 30 took home the coveted award for "Best Thriller for a Short Film"! Pictures of the award coming soon (it's being made). Below are some pictures from the festival. (all photos provided by Hamilton Photography)

photos from the GIAA Film Festival

Eric Pirooz (the Real Estate Agent from Unit 30) was lucky enough attend the GIAA Film Festival in New York this past weekend. I can't thank the GIAA team enough for putting on such a wonderful festival, Eric had a great time and I'm bummed that I couldn't make it. Below are some pictures that Eric took at the screening:
