A Webby Triple - One Nomination and Two Honorees · Stef Lewandowski

First Light Movies is in the final five Nominations for the Student Film category

This means it’s also in the running for the People’s Choice Award and if you like the site and what it’s all about please spare a minute just to give it your vote should you feel that way inclined.

The two that didn’t quite make the final cut but are being recognised as Honorees are:

The Big Picture in the NetArt category

Name In Lights for last year’s Fierce Festival, again in the NetArt category

Trumpet-blowing be damned, this is turning out to be a pretty good year all things considered!
