The Selection Process Begins

Even though the judging process is still in progress, the Central Florida Film Festival (September 4-6, 2009) has begun sending out "Official Selection" notices to films that fared well in the first round of judging. Seventy films are anticipated to be competing for two thousand dollars in prize money over the Labor Day weekend.

In our short category, "Words Unspoken," has become a high profile "Official Selection" from California Writer, Director, and actress, Renee O'Connor. For those who remember, Renee portrayed Gabrielle on the hit series "Xena: Warrior Princess. On "Xena" she was able to direct a few episodes and "Words Unspoken" is her first attempt at producing, directing and writing a short and has ambitions of moving into features. According to the preliminary scores, "Words Unspoken" should contend for the top prize in the featured short category.

CENFLO received more than eighty shorts and the top third are excellent and any of them have a chance to win at our Award's Show on Sunday, September 6th (8:45 pm). "Words Unspoken" as well all our contending shorts will screen twice during the festival. For more information or to purchase tickets go to our website at http://www.centralfloridafilmfestival.com/.
