So...have you checked out our IMDb.com page yet?? Please do, and write a review (if you've seen the film)!

This weekend was peppered with LoliGirls shoots. Friday we ventured into the city (Victoria (Lolita Charm blog), Megan (our movie photographer), and Linsey (co-producer for the LoliGirls short and assist. camera/editor for the movie). After meeting up with Victoria's friend Dalin, we wandered over to Bryant Park for an impromptu photo shoot (pix are up here). We then had to hustle to FIT to grab a seat for the Tokyo Fashion Fest Show. Looking across the audience from the press section, I was impressed by the sea of lolitas. Everyone was dressed in his/her finest. Misako introduced the show, and for the next hour we were immersed in the wild, over-the-top fashion of Harajuku.

Not a day later, Aly (Miss Lumpy) organized a local lolita meet-up at Chocopologie in SoNo. Liz and I showed up with a camera and tripod and luckily the cafe staff was cool with us filming. The entire front section of the cafe was stuffed with Lolitas and their significant others. Liz and I were excited to interview boyfriends and husbands, as well as the new Lolitas who showed up. It was so wonderful to see so many local lolitas in one spot! I hope we can organize another meetup soon!

I'm utterly THRILLED that LoliGirls made it into the Buffalo Niagara Film Festival!! Not only is it a big festival (I discovered it through an ad in Videomaker magazine), but it's also our first official opportunity to show our film to the world. The festival is over a week long, and tons of films will be shown. The idea is to promote the heck out of your film so you can pack the theater for your screening. In order to do this you need cool promotional materials (hand-outs) and a way to grab people's attention. So I will need a team of Lolitas to come and help get the word out. I will dress in lolita myself if that will help get the word out about the film!!!

So we made stickers to hand out at various anime cons, which seemed popular, anyone have any other ideas? I was thinking something frilly would be cute, like handing out bow-shaped pins or cute necklaces. It'd be great to keep costs low (as we have no budget) so anything crafty (but professional!) would be best.

If you have any ideas please don't hesitate to email me at loligirlsmovie@yahoo.com! Or send me a message on twitter (loligirlsmovie).

Also, get the word out! Let your friends know about the festival and a chance to see LoliGirls on the BIG SCREEN!
