Dear Sh ****************:
It has been a long and arduous process in making the selections for this year's 12th Rhode Island International Film Festival (RIIFF). Approximately 3,000 entries were submitted to our competition, making for an exciting and, at times, daunting adjudication process. This year we received truly amazing film work that made the competition a very lively and difficult process. Our judges indicated that over 500 films scored high enough to be included in this year's festival; yet, unfortunately, this is something we cannot do with our seven-day schedule
We regret to inform you that "Hearts of Darkness: A Painter's Apocalypse" was not officially selected for the 2008 Festival. However, due to the high caliber of your film, we would like to offer you the opportunity to remain in consideration for our sidebar programming. Throughout the year, RIIFF sponsors events and screenings to promote the festival and provide a second chance for filmmakers, like yourself, to have their work shown to the public.
The films were judged and scored based on a potential of 8-10 applicable questions regarding the quality of the cinematography, dialogue, acting, editing, and other technical considerations. Additionally, the judges could note their personal responses. If there were questions, a final selection committee reviewed the film and a vote was taken. Quite often, a high scoring film might not be selected due to exhibition limitations. When our available slots were filled in a given category, we had to stop and many titles that were worthy of screening could not be added. There was simply not enough space for many great films, including some of our personal favorites.
At RIIFF, we respect your work. We know the time and effort you've put into creating your film. Our judging process, no matter how carefully and objectively devised, is still subjective, ultimately boiling down to personal opinion and contextual limitations. But, with our year-round programming, we have found a way to expand those limitations and further support the aspirations of independent filmmakers.
We truly appreciate that you entered our competition and we wish you the best of luck with "Hearts of Darkness: A Painter's Apocalypse" - and with your future projects. We also invite you to visit our festival and use it as an opportunity to network, meet other filmmakers, enjoy movies, attend workshops, and just have fun.
Again, our sincere appreciation for submitting your work to this year's festival!
Cordially,
Chase Huneke
Programming Manager
George Marshall
Executive Director

these days.
the weather feels like im waiting in the jungle for something to happen, something. i havent painted since my last days in brittonie, i havent had much relation to it since i got back from france, im not at all accounting it to general malaise, for not having a job, digesting my time in europe, my last dinner in italy... its not even that i am afraid of the painting, i am afraid of it, i have been since i started it, i weakly muscled through the hotel scene, painted fantastic shrimp to "save time. If you eat these I'll never question your courage again."
its almost like a botched limb transplant, i dont want it on me but its in me, i dont know where my "love" of war and humanity's inability to be civil and work for a common, notice not greataer cause, but something that benefits anyway, look switzerland's a bunch of beautiful looking pansies and they seem pretty calm, why cant that exist? give me the new swiss order and ill stop ranting.
im tired, the painting not even being worked on is killing me, the fact that i dont know when i can see it again, paint it again.
spell fear. and shes sad too.
