Pre-Cucalorus

I am happy to say I will be popping my "film festival cherry" this weekend at Cucalorus. I only just learned about Cucalorus last year so I'm happy to actually be attending. Destiny, Daniel, and I are going to see Jackfruit Shorts on Friday at Jengo's Playhouse, Lord's of Chaos on Friday at Connect Theater, Paw Paw Shorts on Sunday at Connect Theater, and Fiddlehead Shorts on Sunday at Jengo's Playhouse. My friend Chloe Pacheco's film is playing before Lord's of Chaos which is pretty awesome, so I'm excited for that. John R Dilworth, who created Courage the Cowardly Dog, worked on Paw Paw Shorts so that'll definitely be interesting! And then of course I gotta show support for my professor at Fiddlehead Shorts! One of my goals, if there are Q&A's, is to ask something to the filmmakers but it's hard to know what I'd ask before seeing the films. Another goal is I really want to meet new people. And I know that sounds cliche and vague but I mean I want to meet maybe film majors from other schools or really anyone I wouldn't run into in King Hall. And lastly, I want to find inspiration. Lately I've felt like mine died. I've had a lot going on with losing my apartment and having to move and then other personal stuff. I just feel like Florence killed something in me and I hope to revive that at Cucalorus.
