Screenwriting : Second Rounder Austin Film Festival by Alexys Rice

Second Rounder Austin Film Festival

I submitted my animated short film script to the Austin Film Festival and was placed as a second rounder in the top 25%!

This may not mean much to others, but with this being my first ever written script, I'm so happy my son's story stuck with someone enough to advance to another read!

Kelly Wiseman

Alexys Rice Congratulations, Alex! Getting your first-ever script into the top 25% at Austin Film Festival is a fantastic achievement, especially with a story that carries such personal meaning. What are you hoping to do with the film next?

Hallan Martins

Congratulation, That’s a great milestone, especially for a first script. Getting into the top 25% at Austin Film Festival is something to be proud of. And having your son’s story connect with readers makes it even more meaningful. Wishing you the best with the next round!

Congrats Alexys! Placing at Austin Film Fest is a big deal, you should be so proud.

How does this project fit into the bigger picture of what you want to be known for?

Alexys Rice

Delenn Kerkhof Thank you!! I would have to say my goal is to create stories that make a difference, create an impact, and to make people feel something, not just something they read/watch and don't think about afterwards. With this story in particular, The Humming Boy, I wanted to show in my writing that someone having a voice doesn't necessarily mean they can speak the same words we do. It's about acceptance - something we can all relate to one way or another. More to come on this - I am wrapping up a feature film script for this. Thanks again!

Elora Hawthorne Thank you so much! At the moment, I am taking this time to put my other ideas onto paper. This was just a start - stay tuned for more :)

Alexys Rice

Hallan Martins Thank you!! Stay tuned, I've decided to stretch into a feature film!

Jim Boston

Alexys, congratulations! Here's wishing "The Humming Boy" more and more success!
