Hiya. I am happy to inform you all that Flippy Day has NOT been selected for Sundance OR Slamdance Film Festivals! Booo Hooo!
HOWEVER it will screen at Filmapalooza April 10-12 in Las Vegas at the NAB show. So that's something.
Big Appetite's newest short film Glamulus at the End of the World has been entered into the 48 Hour International Shootout. Filmed partly in the Durham Elementary School, Glamulus tells the story of a once-famous sweater model and his faithful assistant as they search for remnants of human life. Featuring many of the same cast and crew of Flippy Day, this short film redefines the meaning of "the end of the world." I've been informed that by February 1, 2010 we will know if it makes the cut for the top three. It may screen at Filmapalooza, or even Cannes! Sign up for email notifications at http://www.48hourfilm.com/filmapalooza/2010.php to keep in touch with what's happening.
Thanks for your interest and support!

"Everybody's got a flippy in 'em."
Flippy Day Synopsis
What's a 'Flippy?' It's only the greatest roller skating trick ever performed! Or so thinks an oddball group of roller skaters who have gathered at their local rink to celebrate the legendary creator of the trick, Horatio Baldwin. Led by Holly Baldwin, a self-proclaimed 'activist' and the great, great granddaughter of the Patron Saint himself, Flippy Day embarks on a character by character explanation of what the holiday means to them in their search for community and camaraderie. As their myriad viewpoints begin to vary to the point of absurdity, a bigger picture begins to form for the viewer that none of the celebrants really has a clear definition of exactly what a 'flippy' is!
