Joseph Crockett, Filmmaker states that "The Philadelphia Independent Film Festival's Best Animation award has been a huge factor in getting attention for my film Horizon Diner."

Thank you Joseph. We hope to hear from some other last year film festival filmmakers about any other festival awards, distribution deals and of course new projects.
