July 23 2007Just found out that K-7 won Best Short Award at the Portland International Film Festival about six months ago. I'm belatedly stoked! It seems all the awards at Portland are audience awards, so that's about ten times sweeter. That makes 12 awards total for K-7 that I know of. March 12 2007 Well, we've almost reached the end of K-7's film festival run, and to top it all off we just won TWO AWARDS IN ONE DAY, SON!  If you missed it it will be on DVD on April 3rd. Check it out on Amazon.com. June 22 2006This month's American Cinematographer Magazine has a huge 5-page spread all about K-7 and Director of Photography Kenneth Yeung!

First, K-7 won Best Short at the Cinevegas Film Festival! Just as K-7 was starting to feel K-7's oats, K-7 also won an Audience award at the Seattle Film Festival! Everything's going crazy, yo. June 10 2006K-7 has been accepted to two more festivals: the Bumbershoot 1 Reel Film Festival in Seattle, and the Crested Butte Reel Fest in Crested Butte, Colorado.

You WISH you had as many friends as K-7, but to K-7 it's just totally normal. What, you don't have 1,000 friends? We're all hanging out this weekend -- it's cool, whatever. May 24 2006
The Seattle Film Festival starts tomorrow! K-7 is in the shorts
program Outside Looking In. May 11 2006K-7 has won a SPECIAL JURY AWARD from the USA Film Festival. The strange part of this was, I had assumed I was REJECTED from this festival. It turns out they do something sort of odd for shorts -- they only screen the four main winners. So, K-7 has won a prize without actually being shown. But guess what? K-7 will take any prize you throw at it. K-7 is a slut for prizes THANK YOU VERY MUCH. May 4 2006Film Threat posted this
