"It's Sta-Phan-E-acK!" is awarded the QCA New Work Grant

/

I've been awarded a $2,500 New Work Grant to create my short film, It's Sta-Phan-E-acK!, from the Queens Council on the Arts and New York City Department of Cultural Affairs, Greater New York Arts Development Fund. 

I'll be shooting the film this year in Queens, New York, and then exhibiting it publicly somewhere in the borough, before submitting it to festivals and releasing it online.

I'm excited to make a narrative film in 2018! https://www.facebook.com/JasonJStefaniak/
