The Jameses had forgotten when they entered their short film into the Close: Up San Francisco Short Film Festival, that the entry fee included a review of their film. They had entered over a year ago, and forgot about it after their film was not selected for the festival. Then suddenly just before the end of July this lovely review showed up in their inbox. They absolutely agree with their final statements, because they had never initially intended it to be for film festival viewing, so are the first to admit the film quality was low, but that was also part of the point for them. They wanted it to be a simple story, that didn't provide the meaning of life. It was a fun escape for them, and they made it to simply entertain the audience in the few minutes that it ran, so that everyone could have as much fun as possible during that time. And they are SO happy their review seems to indicate that was the case!

This arrived in the mail. The Jameses couldn't resist getting a trophy when the Cannes Shorts Film Festival offered. They figured it would be nice to commemorate their first ever official Best Actor award. Not to mention, it is fun being able to say they won the award from a festival in Cannes. They will rotate the trophy between each of their personalities. (Red is still waiting for his trophy!)

The Jameses had BuzzFlick design the logo for Kiwi & Woolly Productions, inspired by the two cast members in the film. This also included a little opening sequence for just the logo, which you can watch above, with vocals provided by Kiwi & Woolly. That was the final piece required for editing, and the film was done. Time to start submitting to festivals!

Plus Kiwi & Woolly were very happy to be included on them as well. Red was not so happy that he was left off, so he got his own page on the website instead! You can check out The Red Series here!

James spent two weeks quarantining in this room, after arriving in New Zealand to spend time with his family, and after a week of just himself for company, the Jameses were born - or at least unleashed upon the world. Using the only film equipment handy, their good ol' iPhone, the Jameses created I'm Okay... and the rest is history!
