Laugh Track Comedy Festival

Laugh Track 2012

evan — Wed, 11 Jan 2012 18:13:14 +0000

Hello out there! Our sincerest apologies for being incommunicado lately. We’ve been busy the last few months planning our sister fest Festivus Film Festival, which is taking place this weekend! As a result, as you may have noticed, we haven’t yet announced our 2012 festival. We’ve gotten emails from people curious to know if it will be on again in 2012. Well it’s on, babies. We’ll be announcing all the details soon, but rest assured, you will laugh this year, if only during this one event (TBA). In the meantime, the best way to make sure you’re notified when submissions open, follow us on twitter, like us on Facebook, and stay tuned…

There are no losers at Laugh Track…

…But there are winners. Is there such a thing as collaborative competition? We like to think so. And I think we got to experience that this weekend. There was a tremendous show of support for our contenders and for comedy and film in general. Everyone performed at the top of their game, and the results were close. Our judges certainly had a tough time deciding. Here are the official winners, but as far as we’re concerned, our comedians’ and filmmakers’ moms and dads are the real winners. We hope they’re proud.

Mara Wiles

1st Runner Up
