Congratulations to the Archbold sister!
Our sister Mary and her husband Pat Shay have made it in to the finals of the NBC / Universal Shortcuts Film Festival! Of over 1400 videos that were submitted they are down to the final few. So Mary and Pat are packing their bags and headed to Los Angeles for the finals next Thursday! Best of luck!
For any of you that missed it the last time, here is their NBC / Universal Shortcuts Film Festival finalist video…

Congratulations to her. It is a very good short. But I really hope she isn't set on winning. Those "film festivals" (online or otherwise) are always rigged to get the brother-in-law of the organizer some publicity for HIS film. They know who will win from the begining. But I hope it does get her some face time.

As Kat over at the Crescat blog would say, this is Highfreakinlarious! Good job! Your sister must be taking her disability in stride to be able to laugh at herself like that. Indicates a woman with her head on straight.

It's a great video, congrats!
And you are about 90% right, Anon, but there's still the chance of meeting people and getting a project going.

SO funny.
Niall, I think the security in herself that Mary must feel has to do with coming from a family that loves her very much. And by reading what her brothers produce here, her family also must not let her take herself too seriously. 🙂
