This past week I had a chance to go back to my hometown of Cleveland to participate in the Cleveland International Film Festival.
The Iron Ladies of Liberia ended up recieving the Greg Gund Memorial Standing Up Film Competition Prize ! Siatta-one of the directors-was also in attendance she fielded questions from some of the attendees which included a number of Liberians who left Liberia durring its civil war, and had relocated to Cleveland. Durring the question and answer period that immediatley proceeded the screening, one of the audience memebers-a 12 year Liberian girl-said "When can I go back home?" Siatta's response was "you can come back now". Hearing that really touched me as well as other members of the audience.
So, after having participated in numerous panels, as well as schmoozing with the masses it's time to get back to my studio! I've got a whole bunch of projects that are waiting to ruin my social life so back to the world of scoring!
