This is Experimental: This is a response to Cucalorus

First, I don't want to volunteer again next year. I did not have the time or the energy to do much else and that really pissed me off. I accomplished all of my goals, but I didn't have as much fun as I could have.

One thing I learned as a filmmaker is that I really just need to submit something. I want to have my own film in a festival, and be able to really engage with an audience.

My favorite experience was the Fiddlehead Shorts. Maybe it's because that was the last screening I volunteered for or maybe it was seeing Shoot the Duck for the first time that made it so great.

One thing that surprised me, and I should've known better, was that they were very unorganized. A lot of blame was pushed around when something didn't go right and I was not a fan of that. The emcees were all super nice, but they never listened to me when I said there was a short filmmaker that wanted to have a Q&A. I think they need to change their format a little to be more accommodating to volunteers and filmmakers.
