Its always nice to have you’re creative genius confirmed by a established governing body. Just when i was getting used to being stepped on by the man. I sold Networks and Award committees, now its time for my next challenge; Social Freakuency.
In Santa Monica on June 3, The Factual Entertainment Awards were presented at the Fairmont Miramar Hotel as part of realscreen’s second annual Factual Entertainment Forum.
