Hi. It’s good to encounter you here. Be sure and keep us updated on your adventures in the Baltimore 48HFP. We’ll take a look at your past performances to see if there’s anything we can feature at http://seeitonline.wordpress.com. We like to show off a lot of 48HFP entries there.
Hey Vincent,
I can’t tell you how good it is to get a comment from a REAL PERSON and not a spam bot. I’ve checked out your blog and that Creative Liquid short actually premiered the same night and time that the DC48HFP I was in did. It really is quite polished. In any case, nice to meet you and I appreciate you stopping by! I’d be happy to do some cross-promoting if you like?
Thanks,
V.
