Community Screening

Community Screening

This years films are being judged and the results are almost in. Join us as the winners are announced for the 2013 Little Hollywood Shootout. The community screening is taking place at the Crescent Moon Theater in Kanab, this coming Saturday, April 13, at 7:00 PM. A special program is planned and the results will be announced. Everyone is invited to attend this special community event! This years event promises to showcase a higher caliber of films than previous showcases. Over the past few years the Little Hollywood Shootout has become a popular venue for young film students and independent film makers to hone their skills and try out new ideas. As the pool of talented film makers grows the films produced are also increasing in quality. Additionally, this years event was much more flexible with the time constraints put onto the film makers. Unlike the 48hour limit of previous years, this years participants had several weeks to edit and polish the footage they obtained in Kane County. We look forward to see the level of creativity and production quality this year and invite you all to come and witness the results as they are announced.            ...
