What I said in my email to the crew today:</p> <blockquote> <p>“This project was fortunate to have some of the most talented, hard working, and gracious people I know working on it. Those kinds of projects are special, and don’t come along every time. Thank you for your work.  know you’re going to roll your eyes at this, but I don’t care: congratulations on this cool award. We made a really cool thing together and we’re blessed to get to see the outside world appreciate it and derive joy from it.”</p> </blockquote> <p>Aharon wrote a nice post <a href="http://www.redgiantsoftware.com/blog/" target="_blank">here</a>.</p>http://sethworley.com/post/22216084135http://sethworley.com/post/22216084135Tue, 01 May 2012 16:44:47 -0500red giantplot devicewebbyAharon Rabinowitzdirectingfilmmakingawardsweb<iframe width="100%" height="166" scrolling="no" src="http://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fapi.soundcloud.com%2Ftracks%2F44328161&show_artwork=true" frameborder="0"></iframe><br/><br/><p><a href="http://allbetsareoff.com" target="_blank">Aharon</a> and I were interviewed by the cool folks over at <a href="http://www.nffty.org/" target="_blank">NNFTY</a> a few weeks ago.
