We made a Mead Fest Short Film
Did you go to Mead Fest at Starrlight Mead in Pittsboro last month? We did, and instead of our usual event coverage, we made something a little different.
It’s a narrative fantasy short film! We kind of made it up as we went, but it was a lot of fun. Let us know what you think.
