ITW Wins Top Award at Worldfest Houston!


The awards banquet for Worldfest Houston was Saturday night April 29th. It was held at the Renaissance Hotel in Houston, headquarters for Worldfest. The banquet was very crowded, every table filled with filmmakers, crews, and movie enthusiasts. There were bagpipers, dancers, mariachi band, and lots of awards. Dinner was great, filet mignon, and complimentary wine, & champagne from the Pillar Bluff Vineyards.

All evening long awards were announced by Worldfest founder, Hunter Todd, and guest presenter, Bob Boudreux. They went through the bronze, silver, gold, and platinum awards with no mention of "Into the Wind". The special jury awards for the top film in each category was up next...

"Special Jury Award for Documentary film, theatrical feature...."

"Into the Wind".

Woo Hoo! It was a great night, and we were excited to win the top REMI.

Sunday was a close out celebration of Worldfest. It started with a VIP tour of NASA for the filmmakers and platinum pass holders. Then a regatta boat race at the Houston yacht club where you were able to ride on one of the racing boats, or board one of the spectator boats to watch the race. Then we were treated to a down home Texas BBQ, beer, wine, champagne reception at the HYC. A good time was had by all.

Stay Tuned...

CP.
