Off To The Distributors

Today is a bit of a nervous day. As you know, I’m finished my movie Prince of Peace – God of War and the printed DVDs have arrived (which I’m thrilled with by the way). The screening is coming up on the 23rd of this month (which I’m pretty nervous about too)… but today is pretty big.

You see, I’m leaving in a little bit here to go to a distributors office to give him a couple of copies of the movie he’s expecting. This is huge. If he likes it (and that’s a VERY BIG IF), then it would mean my movie will be in a lot of stores across Canada and hopefully spreading the message that the movie delivers.

I feel like I’m getting ready to ask a girl out for the very first time and the fear of rejection is racing through my blood like a bad flu virus. You work a year and a half on a project… you put you heart and soul into it… you believe in it… but at some point you have to hand it off to someone to JUDGE it from an unbiased point of view. This guy is going to JUDGE my movie and decide if he thinks it’s worth putting in stores and if he thinks people will be interested in buying it.

I tell ya… if I was someone who drinks (which I’m not), I’d be sucking back the bourbon this afternoon for a few days until hearing back from this guy.
