"Test Day" gets some exposure

The short film I made at the University of Texas at Austin, "Test Day," has been generating a bit more activity than usual in the last week or so. An educator in Los Angeles posted it to her facebook page, I received an email message via YouTube asking me where I fall on the issues the film explores (if that sender happens to read this post, I apologize for having yet to respond - I will!) , and now assistant professor Gabriel T. Saxton-Ruiz of the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay has posted it to his blog. Hmm... is something in the air? "Test Day" has always sparked debate and discussion, but aside from placing it on my website, I haven't ever let it out there on the internets for whatever reason. Maybe that should change.

50,000 Miles Beneath My Brain Blog by Gabriel Saxton-Ruiz: He re-posts some very interesting and engaging articles about Latino identity that I think is worth checking out.

If you're curious: "Test Day" played numerous film festivals from 2005 to 2008 and won prizes at festivals such as the 8th Cine Las Americas, the 1st Flatland Film Festival, the 2008 Phoenix Film Festival, and the 2005 Sidewalk Moving Picture Film Festival. I have included it at the bottom of this post. Hope you enjoy!
