An independent filmmaker from Owensboro is wrapping up an effort to help spotlight other filmmaking talent in the region.
"Unscripted: An Indie Film Xperience" is the brainchild of P.J. Starks, and is a collaboration between his film company and the Daviess County Public Library. The series of short films written, directed, and produced by filmmakers in the Owensboro-Daviess County region concludes Friday night.
Starks says the series gives attendees the chance to see the local films, and then watch them again with the director offering live, interactive commentary.
"It gives the public and the community an opportunity to see the types of talent and artistry we have in the area, and the types of films being made, because it really does run the gamut," says Starks.
Starks says the films featured in the "Unscripted" series have ranged from eight to 26 minutes in length.
The Owensboro native says he and the Daviess County Public Library have been so pleased with the response to the film series that they're already planning to coordinate a second series.
