"Memory Lane" wins People's Choice Award at SoAL 2014!

I would like to thank everyone that supported us! It's been an interesting journey."Memory Lane" has won the 2014 South Alabama Film Festival/Southsounds Southern Music Video division!

Mobile, Alabama, at dusk before the Artwalk premiere!

On the big screen!

"Memory Lane" premiered publicly during The LoDa (Lower Dauphin) Artwalk in Mobile last Friday and was well-received. The video drew a small, but dedicated crowd. "Memory Lane" competed with 10 other music videos from the Gulf region. Eterniti, the artist, is one satisfied customer!

"Memory Lane" has an interesting history. It was shot as a literal last-minute video because our club extras didn't show for an entirely different song and video! But in the end, we polished that turd into a win, and that's what filmmaking is about! For us at Lagniappe Cinemas, we gonna keep doing what we do best: making quality video! In case you haven't seen the video, it is embedded below.

"Because we can":a filmmaking contest

Over at filmmaking.net, Kyle Pretorius wrote an article laying out the general idea for a film contest titled "Because We Can." A Vodka company from New Zealand will grant some lucky filmmakers a chance of exposure and $4200 in exchange for a unique concept incorporating the contest's motto.

The contest ends 31 December 2008. Get crackin'!

The contest's site is here.

Happy Filmmaking!
