‘Seasons of Love’ wins BEST ANIMATED FILM
I am so thrilled to announce that Seasons of Love received the award for Best Animated Film at the Visions Film Festival and Conference!
This, by far, was the most fun I’ve had at a festival. I’ve never been surrounded by a group of such genuine and talented filmmakers and film scholars. And to the students at UNCW who hosted the festival, thank you for making me feel so welcomed!
Congrats to fellow NYU Alumni, Jaclyn Gramigna and Felix Thompson, who also won awards for their films.
