Create a short film in just two days with genre and title pulled from a hat - and each film must include the famous Jersey cow. Five talented filmmakers excepted the challenge and at a special London Short Film Festival event at the Roxy Bar & Screen, Gaelle Dennis’ Morning Mist was awarded the ‘Best Film’ prize of £1,000. Congratulations to Gaelle.
Voting

london_short_film_festival_2010The five films our members voted for are a testament to the talent of indie filmmakers when confronted with tight deadlines and limited resources, which is most of the time! During the voting period, things got pretty tight at times and the fight for second place was particularly close. Members were able to vote once only for each film and our special Culture Counter provided a real-time display of the action.
