Recap

The Starting Tomorrow premiere went as well as we could've hoped.

Chi Alpha generously supplied popcorn and juice, and Drew Graham--the writer/director--welcomed the energized crowd.

Nearly 200 people packed the smallish theater, and it was clear from the beginning that everyone had come ready to have a good time.

When the lights dimmed, there was a lot of hooping and hollering, which carried into the fast-paced opening credits (edited, remarkably, less than 24 hours before the premiere). Throughout the movie, I saw a lot smiles and heard a lot of laughter. And afterward, there was a lot of applause.

I would like to thank everyone who came. And for those who couldn't make it, the DVD will be available this fall (with about a crapload of extras, including bloopers, production photos, trivia games, and deleted scenes).

Ok, nap time.

You guys did such a good job making the movie! It was so fun to watch.
I think that everyone had a good time last night.

What about a premiere for the Coffee House?

Please tell me you did a huge "Rock the Party" montage. No movie is complete without one. Seriously.

"Excellent. Computer. Rotate 180 degrees."

Brilliant....
(You had to be there, but trust me, it was great!)

Wow, I don't know who POD Pete is, but I like the way he thinks. Every movie should have a huge "Rock the Party" montage, true that.

I'm glad the premiere went well! I was there...a day late (for BSU's multimedia portfolio reviews). I at least saw the beginning of Starting Tomorrow in Drew's portfolio review. I would have talked to him had he not disappeared afterward. I also would have talked to you and your modestly hot girl had I seen you. :P

There should definitely be a premiere for the Coffee House.

Dang, I was going to go to Drew's presentation too, but right before I left, I got this this super big headache.

It would've been a big surprise to see you.
