The next stop on the Chasing The Dream tour is San Luis Obispo Film Festival.   The festival is scheduled to for 2 screenings; March 10 and 11th at the Palm Theatre.  According to festival director, Wendy Eidson, “I know it’s going to sell out and I want everyone to be able to see the film.  That is the reason I have scheduled it twice.”


The Central Coast is the hometown of associate producer/assistant editor, David Malcolm, making him a hometown hero for this showing of the film.  Executive Producer Josh Williams and director Angelo Mei, along with most of the film’s stars will also be in attendance.


Legendary director Norman Jewison and actor James Cromwell, will be in attendance at the festival receiving the honorary “King Vidor” awards, making this a full star studded event.


It was an exciting time at the Santa Barbara Film Festival for the world premiere of Chasing The Dream.  The rain poured down on the coast as the film played for a sold out crowd of over 700 people in the historic Marjorie Luke Theatre. The crowd’s response was enthusiastic as was the festival’s staff, requesting a second screening for the following week of the festival.


Director Angelo Mei went onstage for a Q&A offering some insight as to what it was like making the film then joined by half of the film’s stars, Logan Strook, Taylor Pai, AJ Collins and Quinn McCrystal to discuss how being the film has affected their lives and where they are at now.
