Project Overload

I am assuming that most of you have noticed that my blogs have become slightly less frequent lately. This is an indication of how busy my life has gotten over the last few weeks. I am currently producing a documentary for a film festival, planning an Easter production that will include a script and choreography that I am creating myself, getting ready for my daughter's dedication, working full time, and taking care of three children all at the same time!

Needless to say, I'm a bit overwhelmed right now, so please forgive me if my posts are a little more spread out for a few weeks.

For today, I just want to encourage all you readers out there to check out some information about this film festival that I'm entering. It really is an amazing film festival that allows Christian filmmakers to come together to race against time to produce a short film in 168 hours (1 week). Each filmmaker chooses a scripture on the same night and their team must create a short film inspired by that verse. The teams have 10 days for pre-production, then 168 hours for production and post-production. It is one crazy ride!

After all films have been viewed and judged, they are screened in the festival that is in March. This is truly an amazing experience, even if you didn't have a part in the films themselves. It is great to see what other Christians are producing in the industry. It's also different to be in a room that is filled with industry folks who all have a like mind as far as bringing a good message to the masses.

If you want to learn more, go to www.168project.com. Maybe I'll see you at the festival! OK, gotta go -  got things to do! :)
