Measurable Outcome(s)
Our central goal is to promote the underserved community of animators and producers of experimental short films in the Twin Cities area. Our progress is incremental. In 2014 we had more submissions that ever before. A sold out show means that we have maximized our capacity for bringing in an audience, and provided the maximum number of viewers for the Minnesota films. We reached capacity in 2014.
