the 2010 pawdance film festival

hi every bloggie

I have breaking news. I am pleased to announce a spectacular event! Norwood productions is hosting it's very first festival, the 2010 Pawdance Film Festival. Yep I love watching all my bloggie pals' movies. My bloggie pals are very talented at capturing the tales of: being pest to siblings, running on the beach, training and dancing. I thought hmmm- we need to celebrate these not to be forgotten independent pawsome movies! Yeppers put on your director's hat, get your stars ready and consider entering the first Pawdance Film Festival!

Starting today I will be accepting short film clips in the following categories:

Murder and Suspense Film Series

The ultimate who done it movie? Your film goes right here.

Romantic Film Series

Calling all lovers! Do you love your sibling, toy, chasing things or foodables? All PDAs (public displays of affection) shown here.

Comedy Film Series

Are you a funny pup or kat? Your inner-self is named bozo? Your nickname is goofball? Let's see whatcha got for giggles.

That's Entertainment-

Do you dance, sing, or perform tricks? Step right up into the Entertainment category! Jazz hands permitted.

My favorite.. the ACTION film series. No words required just plain athletic prowess. Levitators line up!

And the last category Special Effects!

Anything goes! See for yourself with my quick feature film City Slickers
