For SATO48-2023, we entered as the Likes Family (rather than with the church like years past). Our film, Political Puppet, stars my 1-year-old daughter, Zoë, and some of her favorite finger puppets!
We were in the top 5 (out of around 70) for the Family Fun Prize, Best Sound Editing, Best Original Song (thanks to our friend KJ Roelke), and Best Movie Set Design, and we were runner-up for Best Movie Poster Design! Though the overall production quality is a dip compared to past entries made with a large team, I am very happy with how this short film turned out.
(Trigger Warning: this film features extremely surface-level political satire. Viewer discretion is advised…)
