The Seattle Indie Film Festival puts on a great screening opportunity for filmmakers, along with space to network with other creatives and artists. It was an honor to be an official selection with my film "Dotted Line"

I’d like to thank the Seattle Indie Film Festivall for honoring my short film, the psychological thriller, Killing Georgia Jones! What a great festival for serious filmmakers and a festival you should definitely enter, no matter where you are on your career path. I could not be happier or more appreciative of the care they took in judging and selecting my work. Thank you!
