The festival started a a little over a week ago, but still before that I was consumed with all things Advanced Producing.
I had a craaaazy fun time doing some marketing and promotional stuff for Cherry, a film by my new buddy Jeffrey Fine. The story follows a college freshman, Aaron, as he yearns to shed his science geeky-ness for art and love (read=sex) :
I spent the weekend manning our "Cherry Confessions" booth as part of the website's viral video promo material. We posted up both at the AlaSoLa (Alamo Drafthouse South Lamar) and the bustling corner of 6th and Trinity. Needless to say, we got a plethora of interesting stories.

While dressed in the confessional bishop costume, I met a woman, Heather Menicucci, who started the FAWESOME website How Cast. Here, you can catch me at the 1:03 mark discussing how to get the most out of SXSW:

Hey Hannah! Glad you liked the video and thanks for the blog post! The next one should go up tomorrow morning -- 3/23 -- and you and your fellow UT students make a couple great appearances so stay tuned. I do have to set the record straight on one point -- though Howcast is FAWESOME, I'm not one of the founders. We're founded by some Google and YouTube folks and I run the Howcast Emerging Filmmakers Program. Looking forward to seeing you make some Howcast spots! Thanks again!
