The real achievement is that you finished a body of work that you can share with others.<BR/><BR/>Sorry again, and Thank you once more Jay for watching my film.<BR/><BR/>AnthonyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19946344.post-11768310887481635022007-09-28T23:15:00.000-07:002007-09-28T23:15:00.000-07:00Mark,At the time of the original posting, the "Eve...Mark,<BR/><BR/>At the time of the original posting, the "Everything Will Be OK" website listed winning ""First place- Best Dramatic Animation" - Dragon*Con Short Film Festival. I see that the reference was removed since then.<BR/><BR/>I hope you understand that I am a part of the "Hertzfeldt Cult" and was taken aback by the apparent oversight of "When The World Goes Dark"'s recognition, considering that Hertzfeldt is an Oscar nominee. (I was surprised by the Dragon*Con panel's selection to begin with.) As you can see, Anthony and I have gone back and forth on this a bit... ;)<BR/><BR/>There was no 'harshness' intended toward Mr. H. Just surprise at what seems to have been an unintentional error by his publicist.<BR/><BR/>All is well and I am anxiously waiting for my pre-ordered "EWBOK"!<BR/>:)<BR/><BR/>JayJay, aka The Angry Little Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06028062072989600274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19946344.post-29268430351122686362007-09-28T16:49:00.000-07:002007-09-28T16:49:00.000-07:00I don't understand, where on Bitter Films is this ...I don't understand, where on Bitter Films is this info you're quoting about Dragon*Con??Suggesting that Don H should be "ashamed" of something is sort of a bold statement. <BR/><BR/>Kudos to Anthony Scalmato, but talk about being a "sore winner".Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19946344.post-28548371788037948012007-09-23T00:18:00.000-07:002007-09-23T00:18:00.000-07:00Hmmm...

Don does seem to be overstepping himself with "First Place - Dramatic Animation" I guess semantically that is correct, but still, it's a bit of a stretch.<BR/><BR/>Shame on him!<BR/><BR/>Anyway, I've been buried away at the "Anime Weekend Atlanta XIII" this weekend. NOT exactly my cup of tea but the anime music vids (aka AMVs) are incredible! You must go to one sometime!<BR/><BR/>later...Jay, aka The Angry Little Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06028062072989600274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19946344.post-33668096865557852912007-09-20T17:17:00.000-07:002007-09-20T17:17:00.000-07:00Hey Jay, no offense was taking at all. Everyone is...Hey Jay, no offense was taking at all. Everyone is entitled to their own, i was honored that someone took the time to comment on my piece, its great to see. So thank you! As for Hertzfeldt, it was honor to screen not only with him but against him aswell. <BR/>I see bitter films production takes its name very serious as on his website it claims: "First place- Best Dramatic Animation" @ 2007 Dragon*Con :) Talk about not givin a poor student first award any credit. <BR/>-heh no hard feelings though:) He's famous im just starting off.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19946344.post-82521781436359526372007-09-20T12:40:00.001-07:002007-09-20T12:40:00.001-07:00Hey Dave and Anthony!Glad you found me 'out here'!...Hey Dave and Anthony!<BR/><BR/>Glad you found me 'out here'!<BR/>And, Anthony, thank you for not taking my 'bitter' comment to heart!
