Selected
This is a bit anticlimactic, after having just learned that Tom Jantol’s Wizard of OS: The Fish Incident is an official selection in the I’ve Seen Films International Short Film Festival (yes, that is Rutger Hauer, who is on the jury along with Ridley Scott!) — CONGRATULATIONS, TOM!! — … but I’ve got a bit of an announcement myself.
Male Restroom Etiquette has been selected to be part of the Animation WebJam ‘08, hosted by Jerry and Orrin Zucker (of the Emmy Award-Winning It’s Jerrytime). The internet animation festival will begin its tour of big screens at Coolidge Corner Theater in Brookline, MA. From there, the fest will be making stops in the hometowns of many of the creators of its films. I’m hoping it will work out to where that can include my own neighborhood. More info is available at animationwebjam.com.

Congrats, Phil!!!
I am so proud to be part of these lunatic, absolutely insane group of ladies and gentleman who had enough brain injury for making movies on one comp, with zero budget, zero everything - only with idea and passion.
Very interesting real-time times are coming.

Congratulations my friend - very well deserved. Same goes for that enigmatic ideas-machine Mr Jantol.

Superb! I really couldn’t agree with Tom’s comment more. Machinima thrives on passion, ingenuity. and downright craziness, and it’s great to see the efforts of people such as yourselves recognised and rewarded.

You both deserve the highest praise. Not only for the films, but the extreme pride I have in knowing people like yourselves represent the best of machinima/anymation.
