Efata Festival 2009 - Awards ceremony

Like I promised on May, I'm writing (now that I have some free time...) about the night in which 'The Screenplay' won the award as 2nd best film on
"Efata Festival 2009" (http://www.cortometrajescristianos.com/).

(In the picture, between me, the actors Matteo Pianezzi and Claudia Nicosia).
The ceremony was pretty good and I'm really proud about the award, because it's not easy winning, if your movie speaks another language. The only thing I didn't like, was that the dvd player didn't read good the movie sound. This is the jury verdict (in spanish): "El segundo premio ha sido para el corto "El Guión" de Davide Melini. El autor, afincado en España, es un maestro en crear climas inquietantes. Porque nos muestra una realidad muchas veces desconocida que suele pasar inadvertida, aunque sus consecuencias son palpables en la sociedad. Porque creemos que es un autor que seguramente va a dar mucho que hablar."

Below, you can watch the awards ceremony's night.

Francisco Rodríguez is the graphic design

Francisco Rodríguez (still photographer) will work also as graphic design. After his great 'The Puzzle''s poster, he will create 'The sweet hand of the White Rose''s poster and official web page too. Yesterday I talked to him and he was well-motivated. In the end, the post production will begin on July. Soon other news.

It's over!

I'm very happy to say that yesterday we finally finished the shootings. Now we need to "cut off power" and relax. All the post-production (editing, trailer, web site, stills, etc.) will begin on July. I want to give thanks to all the people and institutions that worked in the project. Thanks again guys: we made a wonderful and impressive job!

The last day!

Tomorrow it is our last day of shootings. I hope we will not find any surprise (about the weather), this time... Go to read two news that came out from "Escuola Superior de Artes Escenicas de Málaga" (http://esaem.wordpress.com/2009/05/30/rodaje-de-un-corto-con-alumna-de-la-esaem-como-protagonista/) and Casabermeja's official web site(http://www.casabermeja.es/pagina.asp?cod=862).
Go for it!
