Grand Rapids Event Spotlight: Mlive Movie Night

 
On Friday, April 19th, I will be attending an event at the Urban Institute of Contemporary Art for Mlive Movie Night, where several Grand Rapids filmmakers will be featuring their short films. I'm happy to be submitting a film that I was the production assistant for-- a film entitled From The Heartland. 

You can check out an article featured on mlive.com HERE!

This film was created as a part of a 48-hour film competition for 48 Go Green (a worldwide competition).

Big Foot Films was born February 2008 out of East Lansing, Michigan. A few years, films and projects later, Big Foot Media was created to take on interesting creative freelance projects. Big Foot Films is highly collaborative and brings together video professionals and non-video professionals alike. Our crew includes high school teachers to restaurant managers; everyone has a chance to be creative.

Since its origins in 2008, Big Foot Films has produced 9 films for 48 hour film projects in East Lansing and Detroit. We also competed internationally with "From the Heartland" which received the award of being a top 15 finalist amongst over 40 films in the field. 

Big Foot Films highest accolade came from their win at the 48 hour Film Project: Detroit in the summer of 2011. Their dark comedy - "Maybe Tomorrow" received: Best in Genre, Audience Choice Award, Best Director and Best Overall Film amongst a field of 61 talented Detroit filmmakers!
