Last weekend at The Screaming Room Film Festival, Invasion '53 won not only the Anthology of Terror Audience Award but also the juried award for best of the festival -- the Palme d'Gore! Midsummer Scream is the world's largest Halloween and Horror Convention, drawing more than 50,000 people. It was an awesome event, and the film festival was particularly well done. Thank you to my friends who came out to support me and to the fest organizers!

On Tuesday night, I spoke at the Ladybug Music Festival's event Her Lens: Stories by Women on Screen. We screened Invasion '53 for a packed house at The Screening Room at 1313 in Wilmington, Delaware, and then there was a spirited Q&A and lots of networking afterward. The audience reception was great. One of my favorite lines--"Where is my wife?"--got a huge laugh. And there were thoughtful questions, not only about making Invasion '53 but also about the current industry land

Thank you to the Sydney Science Fiction Film Festival for showcasing Invasion '53 and me in this article on Letterboxd: https://letterboxd.com/sydscififf/story/director-danielle-weinberg-on-invasion-53/ Invasion '53 is celebrating its Victorian premiere at their Melbourne festival next month. It's very rewarding that this movie is connecting with audiences around the world.

This past year has been very rewarding and enjoyable, as I've been traveling to film festivals all around the country. The run started in San Jose in March and then took me to the Jersey shore, Palm Springs, Richmond, the Eastern Shore, Huntsville, and the biggest trip of all--San Diego Comic-Con! I'm grateful that members of the Invasion '53 team have joined me at the screenings and represented us at festivals I couldn't attend. It has been great meeting filmmakers, program

I had a wonderful time in Rocket City -- Huntsville, Alabama -- last weekend. Invasion '53 won Best Ensemble, Best Wardrobe, and the top award -- Best of Show! Before the screening, I checked out the home of Space Camp and saw not one but two incredible Saturn V rockets! The film festival was held in a movie studio, which was a cool venue. Everyone was friendly and excited to see the film. It was a fun day, and I really appreciate the trophy.
