[NEohioPAL] Get your tickets to Johnny Wu's feature film's 2nd screening before it is gone!

[Johnny K. Wu]

Due to popular demand, the premiere screening of Johnny Wu's film The
Rapture was sold out within 6 hours of going live.  Therefore, The Ohio
Independent Film Festival has agreed to squeeze in a 2nd screening for
everyone who was locked out from the first.

 

James V. Geier, Todd Metzendorf, Ray Elkin, Kyle Znamenak, and Johnny K. Wu
of The Rapture LLC proudly invite you to the 2nd screening of the
locally-produced independent sci-fi/anime-styled film The Rapture!

 

We decided to screen the film at this Festival as a gesture of thanks for
their years of hard work supporting independent artists in Ohio.  Money from
the screening will help continue support their current and future causes.

 

Tickets will go fast (as for the first screening), because the theater can
only accommodate a maximum of 200 people for each screening. Although you
didn't get the tickets for the 1st screening, you are still welcome to join
us at the Reception Party, with complimentary beverages and appetizers and
great musical performances,  (If you've been to Johnny Wu's previous
premiere party for A Joker's Card, you remember what a fun party it was.
And this one will be even better!)  The Reception Party is scheduled for
Saturday, May 10th at 9pm - right after the 1st screening.  Please see below
for more information.

 

A number of guests will be at either of the screenings and the Reception
Party (Saturday, May 10th at 9pm, see below), including: 

 

-        Cleveland Film Commissioner, Mr. Ivan Schwarz;

-        The Director of the Department of Community Relations of the City
of Cleveland, Mr. Blaine Griffin;

-        Many governmental officials from the State of Ohio, the City of
Cleveland, and the City of Port Clinton;

-     Leaders from the Business, Arts, Cultural, and Ethnic communities.

 

As many of you know, The Rapture - which is already winning awards -  is an
anime-styled sci-fi feature film written by Johnny Wu and James Geier, with
over 500+ visual effects, martial arts, wire-fu stunts, and of course, an
actual story!

 

This is a great opportunity to support local independent filmmakers and have
a fun weekend together.  We expect the theater to fill up quickly AGAIN -
due to limited seating capacity of 200 - so order your tickets soon to be
sure you don't miss out on the 2nd screening!
