...here are the results!
Last year we held a hugely successful Simple Pleasures Film Festival, in which we invited you all to enter a short film with the promise of fame on our website, and wonderful prizes!
Firstly, a massive thank you to everyone who entered. We were so overwhelmed by the quality and quantity of the films we’ve received, that not only do we have a winner, two runners up and a people’s prize, but we also created a special judge’s prize as well!
Our awards ceremony was held at the fabulous Electric Palace in Bridport on the 23rd April 2010. All winners received a beautiful hand carved Dorset Cereals award, made in Sturminster Newton, just down the road from us in Dorset. The top prize was £5000 to the winner and a week’s work experience with a top film production company. We hope Robin, Lorenzo and Erini had a wonderful time!
Thanks must also go to Julian Fellowes and his wife Emma for supporting the evening and the many hours deliberating over the judging process.
Check out some pictures from the evening below...
