Ghost Town Living

We're having a film festival!

I'm super excited to announce that in September (15-17) we are going to host our first ever Cerro Gordo Film Festival up here.

We are going to invite up 6 teams that will have 48 hours to shoot, cut, and premiere a film right here at our movie theater.

The films will be judged by a panel of folks from the local area, the film industry, and some other YouTubers.

We are still looking for teams to participate as well as volunteers to help around the event. If you're interested, check out the link below.

Looking foward to start what hopefully will become an annual event. See (some of) you there!

It’s so cool that the vision you had about one day hosting film festivals, back in your early days at Cerro Gordo, is now coming to fruition. Brent, you are an optimistic, hard working and incredibly driven individual: an inspiration to us all. Cheers, man!

Signed up! I’ve been watching your channel since late 2020 and Short Films is by far our biggest passion. A lot of the short films and cinematics I’ve uploaded to my channel since I found your channel has been in many ways inspired by your use of cinematography, music, and environment. Would be amazing to be a part of the festival, but at the end of the day I understand that the slots are limited to only a few lucky teams. Our crew is crossing our fingers!

Ooooh, can we have a livestream from the rear of the audience, like we are in the cheap seats pleeeeease. It's a bit too far to travel from the UK and I'd love to see what gets created live, as its shown in town ❀️

I always thought it would be a great location to host a gravel bike race too. Congrats on the film festival!

It is so heartwarming to see another dream realized! I too wish I lived closer to attend this. However, you are on my bucket list and I hope my dream is realized too, to visit Cerro Gordo someday.
