You Never Know….

I scouted a short film for Director Lawrence Walsh and now its having a screening in LA hopefully on its way to bigger and better things.  Seems the LA Short Fest has sent quite a few short films to the Oscars….see below.

Tara will be screening on Tuesday July 28th at 10:00 pm at the Laemmle Sunset Theaters 5 at 8000 Sunset Blvd in West Hollywood.  Friends, colleagues and family can get directions on the festival website at LAShortsfest.com Underground parking is available for free for three hours with a validation from the theater.
