Mr. Kirk Cameron
The Academy was a blast! Me and my sisters were able to meet up with Mrs. Morecraft {we took her online writing class & Gabrielle and I are FB friends with her}. She is such a sweet & wonderful lady - with a beautiful voice that we all love! We also met Mr. John Fornof, Anna & Elizabeth Botkin, Esther Leclerc, Andrea Reins, Atlanta, and several other girls....
At the Academy we learned so much! We learned about theology, the history of Hollywood, Cecil B DeMille, branding, post-production, story writing, Alfred Hitchcock {Isaac Botkin had some great insight on some of his films}, a bit about TV Shows, and so much more!
In the next post I'll talk about the Film Festival {where I got to meet fellow bloggers and pinterest users}.
oh, my! You got to hear Steven Kendrick and Kirk Cameron and Erin Bethea? So jealous!! :) Can't wait to hear about the rest of your trip.
ReplyDeleteThanks SOOOO much for posting about this! Someday I'll get to go to SAICFF and CFA, until then I'll just have to read all the blog posts I can about it! :)
ReplyDeleteYour trip looks absolutely marvelous!! I hope to be able to go next year. :) I hope they have the same speakers, because I really want to hear Kirk Cameron and the Kendrick's. I think they've been regulars at the SAICFF for the last few years.
