TESTIMONIALS

I left como shorts felling inspired and ready to write again. You sometimes don’t realize the talent that surrounds you until you stop to watch.
Melissa Lewis | Digital Storytelling Adjunct Professor at The University of Missouri

I was really glad to see so many local film makers coming together and sharing their ideas and perspectives.
