Baldwin Award Time!

Just recently, Boston College announced it's Fifth Annual Baldwin Award nominations. I'm proud to say that four of my submissions received some sort of nomination.

If you have a Boston College user name, you can check out all the nominated films this year and vote for your favorite. Below are my four submissions.

For Others: Nominated for Best Documentary and Viewer's Choice. "For Others" profiles Boston College students who volunteer every week to help teach GED prep and ESL classes in Brighton. Thanks to Dimitri Papetsas, Brendan Quinn, Joe Zaleski, and Naz Keskin who all worked on the film. Thanks also to Jeremy Marks and the rest of the 4 Boston volunteers for helping us arrange the film. Thanks also to John Michalczyk, the Salamanowitz Program, and the BC Film Department for their help.


The Fabulous Life of Bienvenu Mayemba:
Nominated for Best Comedy and Viewer's Choice. This short video is brief profile about one of Boston College's most renowned Jesuits, Fr. Bienvenu Mayemba, S.J. Thanks to Patrick Corcoran and Maggie Rulli for giving their commentary, and of course, thank to Bienvenu for being absolutely amazing.

In Good Faith(Trailer): Nominated in the Viewer's Choice category. The full length film was too long for this year's submissions, but the committee did nominate the trailer for the Viewer's Choice competition. Thanks to everyone who made this film possible!

The Backstage: Nominated for a Viewer's Choice. This ten minute spoof on the office was made with the most amazing tech crew I ever had the pleasure of working with. Thanks to the entire cast and crew of "A Dancer's Christmas 2008."
