Let me know what you think of it in the comments section of this post, or by email.
Got the official word on when our screening is. The Gallery of Doom will be screening on
Saturday, April 5
4:00pm
Regal Cinemas in the Winter Park Village
This is a great theatre, located just south of the Enzian. We went here after the Brouhaha screening to see No Country for Old Men. They inform me the seating capacity of the theatre we’re showing in is 500. So, come. Bring friends, family, industry contacts, whoever. We’ve got lots of seats to fill!
Hope to see you there!
We can make movies all day, that’s the easy part. So now we start the hard part, promoting the film and getting it seen. Patrick has done an incredible job putting together this fun, creative, and innovative film, so now we’re hoping to get PUPSOCK & WENDELL IN THE GALLERY OF DOOM in the right hands. We have had some success so far, thanks to Heather Henson and her Handmade Puppet Dreams Festival and Matthew Curtis, programmer for the Brouhaha and the upcoming Florida Film Festival. But that’s not all.
Our plan of attack to start is two-fold. First, and the most obvious, is the festival route. We’ve submitted to several major festivals including South By Southwest (SXSW) in Austin Texas, and this year we will, of course, submit to Sundance, Telluride, Toronto, Cannes, Cinequest, etc. We’ll see how that goes.
Second, and simultaneously, we’ll spread the word by mass email. I know, I know, we all hate SPAM. But if you’re gonna get it, wouldn’t you rather it be about an interesting new movie that good people like us have spent the last year of our lives making for your entertainment, or about VIAGRA and how to enlarge your… well you get the picture.
So I am here to apologize in advance to anyone who is really mad because our press release hit their mailbox, it just seems that this day and age, in order to be heard, you just need to spray in all directions. For those of you who are not mad at the bulk email (like Roger Moore, the wonderful film critic for the Orlando Sentinel, who has already requested a screener of the film thanks to the mass mailing), thank you for taking the time, and let us know how we can get you to see the film.
