[Frameworks] Tie Film Festival

[Bart Weiss]

Like Todd we here are the videofest in Dallas do what we can to make sure we get back to you, in a timely way.
Like most fests that program primarily alternative work we are way overburdened and understaffed 
but as makers ourselves we know too well both sides of this.
Aise from illegible writing and bounced emails
we have a problem when people move and we are sending out
checks (yes we pay a small honorarium for everything we show ) 
it's sad when we get a check back in the mail and have no address to send it to.
So PLEASE when you move, pop us an email.
