I feel sometimes that the &#8220;C-U&#8221; in <strong>C-U Blogfidential<\/strong> and <strong>C-U Confidential<\/strong> may be hampering our reach because media creatives outside of our city limits &#8211; but within other city limits not too far away\u00a0&#8211; believe that it&#8217;s not also &#8220;for them.&#8221; If you read the C-U family regularly, including the <strong><a title=\"C-U Confidential Telegraph archive @ YMLP.com\" href=\"http:\/\/www.ymlp.com\/pubarchive.php?LensCap\" target=\"_blank\">C-U Confidential Telegraph<\/a><\/strong>, you would simply know better. One person that &#8220;gets it&#8221; wholeheartedly is <strong>John Fischer<\/strong> of the <strong>Bloomington Public Library<\/strong>, who is trusting that area movie makers outside of <strong>Bloomington-Normal<\/strong> will consider submitting their short film productions for inclusion in the festival that he coordinates.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">Scheduled for <strong>Tuesday, May 13<\/strong>, and <strong>Wednesday, May 14<\/strong>, at the <strong><a title=\"The Normal Theater :: Home Page\" href=\"http:\/\/www.normaltheater.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Normal Theater<\/a><\/strong>, the <strong>BNFilmfest<\/strong> has provided its citizens an annual outlet since 2003 to show off their projects to the hometown folks. Currently, the Filmfest reserves the first night as an all-ages show while the second night features &#8220;indie&#8221; material for the college students and grown-ups. Fischer wants to expand the scope of his programs by appealing to artists living &#8230; wait for it &#8230; <em>within other city limits not too far away<\/em> from his own twin cities. If you&#8217;re down with playing your mini-epic amidst the <strong>Redbird Nation<\/strong> in what is shaping up to be the only true &#8220;local film&#8221; event in downstate Illinois, then you can snag a submission form from the <a title=\"BNFilmFest :: Home Page\" href=\"http:\/\/www.bnfilmfest.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">official Filmfest Web site<\/a>.
