2009 Festival Update
MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

16 year old, Hollywood Filmmaker, Ben Lee Foster kicks off his first film festival for youth. Ben came up with this new concept to do a film festival that allows youth under the age of 18 an opportunity to try their hands at making fun and inspiring short movies, PSA's and music videos.

"Enough Is Enough". Youth are faced with is alot of movies, music videos, and some television shows that send out negative messages. A change needs to be made. More inspiring projects need to be created to help the young generation and generations to come, how to make better decisions in life so we can have a more healthier future.

The festival is open to youth age 8 to 17 that are creative and are willing to challenge themselves to send out positive messages through projects. Ben is looking to showcase projects that help resolve peer pressure issues, make life more positive and of course make people laugh. It's always good to laugh, but not degrade others.

The BLF Film Festival will be held in Wilmington, Delaware on Thursday, March 26, 2009. All submissions are due by February 26, 2009. For information on how to participate in the festival, visit the film site; www.blffilmfestival.blogspot.com

Ben is also seeking Sponsors for this event.
