HERE IS THE SCREENING ORDER:
A Slow and Steady Drip [trailer] – SuperHouse Pictures (01:02) "A Slow and Steady Drip" is about a businessman who takes a business trip, leaving his wife to deal with a leaky bathroom faucet. The leak serves as a metaphor for the issues in their marriage. The script for "A Slow and Steady Drip" originated from a screenwriting incubation program called Project LightStand. http://www.superhousemedia.org/
LaughcrY [trailer] – TriOmega Productions (01:08) Written and directed by Matthew Peach. Some memories return in an instant, with focus sharper than the clearest photo. The people who’ve affected our lives never really disappear. YASAMIN spent eight years dodging a single question. When she unexpectedly runs into ex-lover LENA , will she finally get her answer? Stifled in a loveless marriage almost by default, will Lena forgive Yasamin for leaving all those years ago? They’ll throw their lives into chaos for a chance to find out. www.myspace.com/triomega
Chicken Sushi – Rich Jackson (01:30) Written and directed by Rich Jackson, “Chicken Sushi” is a spoof TV commercial that appears in the feature mocumentary, "Making Buttprints." Jackson designed and animated the chicken character, recorded the chicken and announcer voice, and also composed and performed the "Asia-billy" theme song. “Chicken Sushi” won the "People's Choice" award at the 2007 SEMAFX Animation Showcase. It was also chosen as a first round finalist for Steven Spielberg's "On The Lot" TV contest and was screened at the 2007 Detroit River Days Festival. (This short is being screened again due to the technical difficulties experienced during the January Mitten Movie Project.) http://www.makingbuttprints.com/

"The Norm" was originally produced as part of the National Film Challenge -- a film competition in which teams from around the country must write, shoot, and edit an 8-minute film in just one weekend (with certain requirements). There were four elements that SuperHouse had to work with were: (1) Character – Cheeks, a celebrity impersonator, (2) Prop – bubble wrap, (3) Line – “It’s impossible not to look,” and (4) Genre – comedy. Also screening is a behind the scenes of “The Norm.” http://www.superhousemedia.org/

American Piety – Mass Effect Productions (29:00) Directed by Steven Karageanes. This award-winning short takes a comedic look at what happens when a misguided man with more faith in his iPod than God gets hit by a car and goes to purgatory, and the only way to get back to Earth is choose a religion from three speed-dating sessions with Buddhism, Islam, and Christianity. "American Piety" is packed with action, wit, and even tango dancing. With a top-notch original music soundtrack, "American Piety" will provoke thought as well as laughs. This is the world premiere of “American Piety.” www.myspace.com/tantricferret
