Night Freight's California Film Award

John Celona (NIGHT FREIGHT) sends news of his 2010 California film award.

Please let me express my ever-sincere thanks for how much you helped me in accepting and posting my trailer 'Nightfreight', an entry made with no budget, just desire and some cooperation. I am really, really honored to have been part of your IMTF site and to have been awarded 'Best Art Direction' to boot in August. I hope the LA screenings for the winners are terrific and successful.

Another nice thing has happened along the way in my journey. 'Nightfreight' has been awarded Best in Category (honorable mention) at this year's 2010 California Film Awards. As luck and coincidence would have it, I will be in La Jolla the weekend of the awards dinner ceremony which is taking place in Mission Bay on Saturday the 22nd. I am having a new work performed for piano and rear screen film projection at UCSD the evening before. I like this kind of serendipity.

Again, such a pleasure to get to know you two, albeit over the Internet yet I feel there been a wonderful connection. We continue raising awareness and funding for the feature-length of 'Nightfreight' as well as polishing the graphic novel version, of which we are a good six-months or so away from a first draft.

Daphne McCormick Schmon writes about CHILDREN OF THE WIND:

The three co-creators of the film, my father Bob, Peter Robinson and myself are all windsurfers, which is how we came to make the film. We've known Bonaire for over 10 years now as we traveled to the island year after year to windsurf.
