The next of our Official Partners is @dynamaps!

DynaMaps is the new incredible modular dungeon map system that sticks to almost any surface! Because the map is modular you can build it out in any fashion and even reveal new parts on the dungeon from the "fog of war" as it's discovered! These tiles are water proof so you don't have to worry about spills, and can be drawn on with both wet and dry erase markers!
This is the coolest map system to have at your table, and we're so glad to have it at ours!

Where do I begin.

This is the first award I’ve won for directing. Crazy thing is, when I started my journey into filmmaking I didn’t have the confidence or desire to be a director, but No Witnesses changed that. Despite three unsuccessful attempts at making this film, I knew it could be done, and it could be done right. I just wanted to make this film and then continue on the path of trying to be a cinematographer. I gathered some of my closest friends and collaborators and made it happen. While in the midst of the four long nights of shooting in the cold, with multiple moving parts, something clicked, something felt right. The experience made me realize directing is what I wanted to do.

What I love about directing/ filmmaking in general is how collaboration is essential to your success. I’ve been saying that a director is only as good as the people they surround themselves with, and this group of people who worked on the film are people I’ll ALWAYS try bring with me on whatever film I direct. This is an art form that you literally cannot do alone, and this award equally belongs to all talented creatives that filled up my cast and crew who made No Witnesses a reality.

Thank you @njwebfest for this award! And thank you to @neem_basha and @neddonovan for running such a gem of a festival and welcoming a first time attendee with open arms. You truly have something special with this festival.

Winning this award with @sidequestshortfilm on the horizon has validated my path and supercharged my passion towards this craft. I cannot wait to be on set again doing what I love surrounded by my closest friends who share that same passion.

Quick shout out to @drew.actor for not only being the BEST actor to play Tony, but for showing up to EVERY film festival, and recording this acceptance speech.

Never stop creating! 🎬

Rachel, Casey and Drew have been hard at work making sure they can bring this vision to life, and for the sake of community building and supporting the ethos of Tabletop, I'm stepping in to help. This Gothic Cathedral DM screen, illustrated by Honey Potts, is up for grabs for supporters of the Sidequest Short Film. Go follow them to figure out how this, and potentially more can be yours, all after filming wraps

NEW SIDE QUEST! Will you be an angel to these poor filmmakers? For just one day of $10 your Side Quest can make another Side Quest happen. If not our production will have no value, our sets will have no dressing, and worst of all our crew will have to EAT PIZZA 🍕

Please don’t let this project become another tragedy of low budget filmmaking and support Side Quest today!

Remember all donations are… ✨TAX DEDUCTIBLE✨
