Film Description:

Synopsis

Madison’s Résumé is a short animation about the futility of summing one’s life up in one page. Newly jobless and confronting the fears of her past with the harsh economic realities of her future, young thresholder Madison Shuster procrastinates by updating her résumé for the job search ahead. But what do you do when you can’t quite fit your hopes, dreams, qualities and attributes into a sheet listing your work experience and skills? Using text and computer-screen imagery as a presentation medium for a droll conversation between Madison and her word processor’s helpful in-program pop-up assistance, Madison’s Résumé promises a warm and funny experience for anyone who’s had to impress someone with an overembellished C.V. … or anyone who questions why we should have to.

I don't know but Alaska Oct 02, 2007 05:30AM
Catch the film at the Anchorage International Film Festival this winter. Never had a film show in Alaska before, pretty amused by that.
Don't go breaking my Reelheart Apr 02, 2007 11:07AM
Catch our Canadian premiere at ReelHeART this June, eh? Thanks again to Shannonn Kelly for being all proactive about getting this jolly little movie.
First in, last out Mar 22, 2007 05:34PM
Hooray for our exciting world premiere! Catch Madison at the Reno Film Festival this May. It'll be, like, good and stuff.
The nebulous end Nov 29, 2006 01:53PM
Finished the film either yesterday or today. I suspect I cannot assign it a proper endpoint. It just wasn't that kind of movie. Sent out first three festival submissions today, and have a fourth in mind once Apple sends more blank DVDs. On this note, I want to thank Tony Armer of Sunscreen FF and Shannonn Kelly of ReelHeART for being classy WABers.

First blog entry. We're setting up for film festival entries and Web promotion with the intent to start submitting within days. Someone remind me to finish the movie too.
