Katherine LaBatte // Excellent job with your film Playland. I'm sure it had to be so much fun to work with a great cast like that with such a comical story to tell. I love the delivery of your film and really enjoyed watching it. Good luck with your future film making. Cheers.

Angie // I'd like to think it all started last year throwing plastic fish, LOL! Obviously you've been honing your talent for some time. So fun seeing what you've done this year Bradley. Hope I'll be able to make it to Nashville to give you the congrats you deserve in person. :)

Devobrownfish // I really can't say enough good things about your movie. In my mind this contest is over; doorpost hasa winner. Really great job. Pass these comments oo to the rest of the guys. Also-- your Play Land short is what I was hoping Adventureland with Bill Hader and Kristen Wiig was going to be like. THe day I went ot see that for a little uplifting comedy, man, was I sorely disappointed.

APottsFilm // The voice matched really well, it made me smile. Karl's gotten me out of a lot of hard places over the last couple of years. I was a bit sad to see him leave the Austin School of Film but we keep in touch and I've been trying to find an opportunity to act with him in between my vicious school and marching band schedule.

What was your favorite part of Playland during production?

APottsFilm // In Playland, who was the singer dubbed over Karl Anderson?
I wish I had known he had been acting in your film or I would have shown up all 4 nights--he's like a dad to me! Everyone did a great job in this film and I really enjoyed watching it. I think it's going to make it.

David F. Mewa // Congratulations Brad. THE BIGGEST WEAKNESS was definitely one of my fave shorts of the festival. Writing and direction was superb. Performances were awesome too. Good luck!

Galen // Thanks for the comments. I was the programmer for Jumpcut a few years ago. I must have seen Playing chicken a million times.
