This past weekend (June 18, 2021 – June 19, 2021), Qosm (formerly Vidi Space) held their second annual film festival. The virtual event was filled with selections from around the globe in horror, sci-fi, animated, documentaries, and much more. The festival also included a panel with filmmakers Elizabeth Saint, Malorie Mackey, Josh Heard, Chris Case, and Nathan Withers as well as a Behind-the-Industry-Scenes panel with Corey Landis, Elizabeth Saint, James “Jimmy O” Oster, Boaz Yakin, Ryan Cultrera, David Tobin, and Tara Price. The event was full of top notch content for “Spacers” to enjoy and it was clear from the very beginning that choosing the winners was not going to be an easy task for the judges, but they did. The official list was released yesterday and we are ecstatic for each and every winner. The hard work and dedication these filmmakers put into their craft is evident and each award is rightly deserved. Congratulations to all of you. We cannot wait to see what next year brings!
