Film festival...check


The Interrobang Film Festival was yesterday and we were there for the opening at 10AM. The documentaries were the first to show and we made it through the first 2 without any technical problems. Wouldn't you know it, as soon as it was time for Eric's documentary to show, the technical problems came and didn't want to go away. The projectors were not used to being on for long periods of time and they would stop and the audio would keep going or the projector would play and the audio wouldn't work. It was one problem after another!
They finally announced that they would close the theater for a half hour to get equipment switched out. So everyone left. We stayed around and like 3 minutes later they told us the theater was running again!! Not joking! Needless to say, we were the only ones there to watch.
It was a bummer but it was all out of our control. Eric's students' films had a much better viewing and the room was full and people were laughing so we were very happy after the mornings disappointment!
Thank you Abby, Jared, Erin, Mike, Mindy, Missy and Mark for coming to support Eric! Seriously, we loved seeing you there and thank you from the bottom of our hearts! You'll have to come over for a private viewing rather than an Interrobang viewing!!
