Last night we had Vision UNCW Film Festival at The Brown Coat Pub and Theater in downtown Wilmington. I may be biased - well yeah I'm definitely biased - but this Vision 2009 rocked all of our eyeballs out. I have never been to a student film festival that made my head want to explode and Dunk-a-roos fly out - like Visions did. Rich from Brown Coat in Downtown Wilminton not only let us use the space for free, he gave 25 cents per beer bought to The Good Sheperd soup kitchen and homeless shelter! That was the sweetest part of the whole thing for me. Well I guess other than the epic films submitted by my peers at UncW. We held two screenings this year since last year I had to personally turn away about 30 people at the door last year. We called it Double Visions. The turn out was great. We gots peeps in the seats. We packed the theater out for both showings. Audience members got mirrors for the preshow. We projected $5 Walmart DVD bin movies out on the audience and had them guess the film. Whoever guessed the film correctly got to keep the DVD. We made a ton of money for The Good Sheperd. The Dean made an appearance. We ate pizza and sang karaoke. It was amazing. There were mystery shots involved.
