FILMS:

925 Blues Lyric Video
Music Video, USA | Directed by Spring Brooks
"I recorded 925 Blues with my former coworker, Hector Espinoza, back when I worked at Tremor Video in NYC. 925 Blues is about that homesick feeling you get when you have to leave the house and go to work, especially during the cozy season. I know first-hand the challenge of trying to balance work and life. I also know the most mundane tasks can induce creativity. The 925 Blues Lyric Video was created with Powerpoint and iMovie. It was fun to experiment and get creative with office tools. There are gems everywhere."

Coyote Tears 
Music Video, USA | Directed by Ron Longo, Craig Clement
"When I wrote “Coyote Tears”, I wanted to capture a story of a young man that breaks away from his family in anger after they were torn apart by the recent disgusting political mayhem.  But there are so many reasons this can happen- conflict over life choices, life styles, religious beliefs, etc.   Not all young coyotes stay with the pack…many times there is too much conflict and they must  leave and start a new life on their own."

I Can Only Sabotage My Self Sabotage
Animation, Experimental Music Video, USA | Directed by Stanzii
"Self Sabotage"  is one of three kaleidoscopic, cyber-chic animated films--part of a triptych that reflects love, loss, and an urgent, post-pandemic need for me: to make art after a time when it felt impossible.

Our 3rd Annual fest has wrapped! As always, we were impressed and delighted by the social media wizardry of our filmmakers, who worked overtime promoting their work. And our audience responded: we streamed over 1,300 hours of video - more than twice as much as last year! Fans couldn't get enough of our incredible shorts in every genre, watching on their phones, computers, and tablets (and our brand-new Roku and Fire TV apps got quite a workout too.) We tallied up viewing stats to determine all our Winners including our Fan Favorite which comes with a $500 prize to help a filmmaker make their next project.

Speaking of our Roku and Fire TV apps, our Winners will continue to stream on them all year... and all our films will continue to be available on our website for as long as the filmmakers want. So if you missed them during the fest, you can still watch them free!

We're proud of everyone who participated, because we know how much of a challenge it is to make great work as an indie creator. And the results speak for themselves. Now, without further ado, the winners of the 2019 IndieBOOM! festival:

The streaming IndieBOOM Festival celebrates its 3rd annual edition with over 50 new films, series and videos from around the world. From Dec. 20 2019 - Jan. 5 2020, viewing stats will be tallied up to determine the winners in each category, including Comedy, Drama, Documentary, Horror, Dance, and Fan Film — which showcases fan-made tributes to icons like Batman and Star Trek. The most-streamed title of the fest wins the Grand Prize of $500 to help an emerging filmmaker create their next project.

A panel of industry pros watched all entries and chose the slate of indies. Each film gets its own custom web page with built-in social media tools, making it easy and fun for viewers to interact. IndieBOOM has also launched all-new Roku and FireTV apps, and can also be watched on AppleTV via Vimeo. Films are always 100% free to watch and are invited to stay on the IndieBOOM site after the festival, giving them more exposure throughout the year.

"IndieBOOM is a unique concept that filmmakers really get," said co-founder Anthony DeVito. "They understand how important self-promotion is in today's industry, and they love that they can use their social media skills to energize and expand their fan base as they compete to win prizes."
