Dear Filmmaker,
Thank you for submitting your film to the Jersey Shore Film Festival. What you’ve done is a great endeavor you should be proud of!
However; due to the overwhelming number of submissions for this year’s festival, we regret to inform you that your film has not been selected. Please do not let that deter you from future submissions of your other films.
Thank you and good luck in your film making career.
This was from The Jersey Film Festival... I wish I cared more.
Certain events in your life occur that make you step back and look at where you are at and what is important. In the grand scheme of things, The Jersey Shore Film Festival just isn't important. I don't say this to be mean to that film festival or any of the other ones that 3:15 did not get into. I just say it because it's true.
3:15 is a gift. I was lucky to experience it. I was lucky to have the people believe in it. With recent events, I have been given the insight of what is important again. My family, my friends, and everyday that I spend with them is what matters.
So if 3:15 doesn't get into a hundred more film festivals... it's OK. If running taught my one thing it is to just keep moving forward.
Be well.
