Chingaso The Clown

Elias and I (Jim) are having an amazing time here at Cinequest. I'm going to be replacing this News section with a blog in the next few days, so you can all keep up to date on the latest developments. In the meantime, I've put a few of the photos of the super-cool people we've met here and of course there are plenty of Elias. Once the blog is online, we will welcome all your opinions, and criticisms. We are really getting good feedback from those who have seen the picture, and we're excited about the future. Now, without further ado...

CHECK OUT THE PHOTOS!
