Cannelle Film Festival

I’d like to announce my latest project: the Cannelle Film Festival. It began as a few sketches of posters on a flight back from Las Vegas, and has quickly evolved into a semi-solid set of plans for a legitimate short film festival. As it marries my interests in graphic design, film making and food & drink with friends, I’m buzzing with excitement and looking forward to seeing how it comes off, hopefully in early September. Visit www.cannellefilmfestival.com for more information and please enjoy one of the promotional posters I’ve been working on.
