I was looking over some of Tim's wedding videos and I had an epiphany: As Colorado residents, we often take the beauty of Colorado for granted. There are 53 mountains over 14,000 feet in Colorado to add to the backdrop of most of the weddings we film.

This festival marked a year of film festivals for Sparks Bros Media. We have had some great films but this one was the biggest. By biggest I mean it had the most moving parts. When your walking around a set for a film that is supposed to be finished in 24 hours (that's shot, edited, and submitted) and you see 5 make-up artists including my wife Chrissy, Channelle Stewart, Ashley Burke, Matt Rivera, and Vincente Martinez Ortega doing body art, go-go dancer Toxiic, from Toxiic Inc. Entertainment, a DJ Cameron "ProfessorPhunk" Sanchez, with a full set-up, you start to wonder what you
