As many of you already know, working as the team "Nigerian Prince Productions", the Dawson Digital Productions technical crew and acting talent created a 7-minute short film Musical for the 48 Hour Film Project San Diego 2007.

"Lucky Numbers: A Musical" has now earned Three Awards from the judges of the 48 Hour Film Project San Diego!

The awards are:

• Best Use of Genre (we had Musical, one of the tough ones!)
• Best Musical Score
• Best Writing

Congrats to all who worked on the film, your tireless efforts really paid off! Who'd have believed that your 3 AM voices would sound so good?

And please allow me to point out my co-writers on this project, Al Stoffel, Sue Ploeger and Michael Dawson... We said from the very start that we wanted this project to begin with a great story. I think two of our awards show that we did just that! Congrats!

And special recognition has to go to my co-director, Al Stoffel, who crafted the melodies and outstanding sound of the film's music.

Don't forget that we will be in the El Cajon Video and Film Festival on September 15th!

I hope to see many of you at the El Cajon Video and Film Festival, don't forget that our feature film "What's The Vig?" will also be screening there!

Last night the 48 Hour Film Project - San Diego screened 12 films that the judges deemed the "Best Films of the San Diego 2007 48 Hour Film Project". These 12 films were picked as a representation of the high quality and varied styles of filmmaking that the San Diego teams in the project were able to achieve.

"Lucky Numbers: A Musical" was selected as one of these 12 films. As a new team to the contest, our selection as one of the 12 Best Films is a great honor and a testament to the hard work and talent of our entire team.
