2014 San Diego Film Awards

Last night the Film Consortium of San Diego held the first ever San Diego Film Awards at the Horton Grand Theatre. I directed and edited the music video for Monkeys In Space “Supermodel Suitcase” which was nominated for best cinematography in the music video category.

This event would not have been possible if it wasn’t for founder of the Film Consortium Jodi Cilley, the FCSD members, and volunteers.

Certainly this festival will continue to grow, it was an honor to be a nominee for this first time event! It’s nice to know that in the future more local filmmakers and talent will have the same opporuntiy that I had last night.  Lookout for the new Monkeys In Space album “Kill Your Past” coming out later this month at Facebook.com/MonkeysInSpace and you can watch the Monkeys In Space “Supermodel Suitcase” below.
